The Obama and Biden administrations focused immigration enforcement on threats to national security and public safety, utilizing a system of legal review and judicial orders for deportations. It was about smart, lawful enforcement, not sweeping, indiscriminate removals that bypass the courts.
Trump is planning a military parade in DC on June 14, but the biggest story of that day will be the actions we take everywhere else. I'm rallying on No Kings Day to reject strongman politics and corruption. https://app.sosha.ai/s/zy9w0iqR
Exactly! I wish I’d hear more “I made a very bad mistake by voting for Trump” instead of “I didn’t know what would happen”
You know now, so denounce him!!
I always say you can hate who you want to hate regardless of who the president is, but if you’re not a Rockefeller you still need your SS and Medicare.
Remember the top part of ballot for president can be left blank if you don’t like either candidate.
Mass deportation of tr*mp voters now! I will take a thousand immigrants over any one of their worthless walking carcasses. And the crime rate would plummet.
What blows my mind is some people in this administration/high court have family members who aren't white. I guess they're hoping their "white umbrella" will somehow permanently shield their spouses and children? Personally, I'd rather make the world more just so no one needs my umbrella.
I'll take it another step here. When you voted for these people in general, you gave them the power to allow tha Fuhrer to his bidding.My question to you who've voted for this CHAOS is where's your credibility to look at your children to say them that I'm a racist and I'm dammed proud of it. SHAME!👇
You voted with your ignorance & won the grand prize: Ignorant, malicious “leaders”.
Too late for
“Wait, WHAT?!?” It’s a lie.
Your shame is disingenuous. It’s pure maga lip service.
YOU aren’t being deported, so what’s the big deal, right? Ho hum…
Put yourself on record OPPOSING this psychotic man.
Exactly. MAGA is known for being obnoxious loud mouths. Why, all of a sudden, can they only whisper "I didn't vote for this." You're right. If they're not willing to stand up and say something/do something now, then sit down, shut the fuck up and watch the real patriots take our country back.
Too many MAGA where I am are loving this. They cheer this at the local sports bar after church on Sunday. They know! They have shown just what they are.
What did they think he meant when he said, "There's 20 million of them - they've all gotta go."
Leaving aside his usual exaggeration of the numbers, we all know what "all" means. And there was a lot of riffing on what it would cost to do what he wanted to do, what would be involved logistically etc
even if using the accurate number of 11 - 12 million undocumented immigrants in the country. No one can convincingly claim there was any confusion about what he said he wanted to do.
Yes!
Ms. Piper is showing us how!
Have conversations with the people you know. Now is not the time to lay low, now is the time to get active while we still can
1) peacefully protest Sat June 14. Bring people.
2) Call Senators. Urge them to vote “NO” on the BBB.
3) volunteer https://mobilize.us
DO SOMETHING!
The most disturbing part of all this is that there is no thought out endgame to it. It’s all based on populist, racist, testosterone, and Id driven urges and posturing. Looking strong. Taking a stand when the ground under your feet is sand. Laws and Constitutionality is not even a consideration.
"I didnt vote for this"
Aka "I dont have the intelligence to do my giving civic duty to understand or care about what I'm voting for, I haven't learned my lesson, and I'm gonna do it again"
THAT is why we can NOT let them use that excuse.
You DID vote for that, now wake tf up and dont do it again.
These assholes also seem to conveniently forget that there was a bipartisan border bill to address immigration, but the Republicans killed it so trump could campaign on the border as an issue. They knew exactly what they were voting for.
This accountability and voice and yes representation is what the rural/Maga US needs. Too many are just miserable folks who bought the snake oil and are ashamed to admit it (naturally there are some who are just jerks too ofc).
I commend you for doing the work. Love to see it 💙
I'm confused. Trump supporters wanted undocumented(and documented) people to be deported. That is what is happening. Trump is deporting every brown person he can get his hands on. Yes, it's the dishwasher, fruit picker, housecleaner, manicurist, lawnmower. What did they expect?
It’s amazing how all the people that “didn’t vote for this” didn’t have a TV, computer, smartphone, tablet, or any means of knowing that Trump was a wannabe authoritarian anytime before 2024 and are just realizing it now.
I reposted this out of optimism, but don’t really think folks who voted for him in the first place are going to change their mind.
The cruelty was always the goal, the only reason they’re saying that they regret this happening is that it’s probably affecting them.
Someone told me this last weekend when we were at special Olympics state games she voted for Trump but made a mistake but her one vote didn’t matter. We were with the most vulnerable population and I couldn’t believe what was hearing.
They won’t. They are cowards at their core, just like “dear leader”. They will continue to be the selfish fucks that is the basis of the entire MAGA movement.
We just need keep reminding them that if they are calling themselves Christian, they are absolutely going to hell for this.
The ONLY thing we need from Trump voters who are unhappy with him now, is for them to vote for their Dem congressperson or Senator in their next election.
Truthfully, Trump has it in his head he no longer needs MAGA (or any) votes because... I suppose he believes there'll be no more elections.
Because GOP midterm prospects are dim, he wants to suspend voting -- likely by invoking the Insurrection Act. Why act so soon? Maybe this is a dress rehearsal.
I’m also in MO and I’ve not heard a single MAGAt admit they didn’t vote for this. I’ve just noticed they became suddenly quiet when the tariff BS started. Once they lost 15% of their retirement in a matter of days, they weren’t as vocal in support. But they certainly aren’t saying anything negative.
There was a huge article in the New York Times about people from Kennet, MO who were suddenly upset that a local woman was arrested by ice. They claimed over and over again they didn’t vote for it.🫠
That scene in Inglorious Bastards when Aldo asks the German if he’s taking his uniform off after the war. We don’t like that he said. Then he carved a swastica into his Nazi forehead with a K-Bar. I will never forgive MAGA for supporting the vile things they all know they were complicit.
Here's a thought, albeit somewhat facetious. If most non-MAGA people moved to blue states, esp. blueish swing states, we would control the House, the Senate, and the Electoral College. Unfortunately, we still would have difficulty amending the Constitution.
Yes she is. I have suggested a few times that she run for Congress. The country would benefit nicely from her election, and MO. would be infinitely better off.
I thought so but I thought her bio said she ran for a state office. Either way, lots of people lose initially. I bet Jess is much better known and would be a much stronger candidate this time. Heck, she’d have my donation this time.
Excellent advice. I'm ok with people who now have their eyes open and understand the consequences of electing Trump. But if they just are mad about one person they know being deported and don't care about others, then they can STFU. Mass deportation was something he ran on and is carrying out
Moral suasion is critical to building a strong democracy. That means people with awful political policies, like mass deportation, need to *feel* shame for their bad beliefs. Without the feeling, there's no cause for change.
This is a moment where people can be made to feel shame.
I live in deep SW Virginia. On election night, my coworkers cheered. I thought I was alone…. Then I met 2 of my neighbors after a whole year. I am not alone. These old ladies were teachers and nurses from the 1960’s. Now we are a blue dot of 6 when we all thought we were alone. Now we are talking…
When they SEE the Gestapo in their own eyes, finally MAGA is “ashamed”
These are the same people whose parents & grandparents attended and organized LYNCHINGS, these are the same people who are OK with the Native Schools, & the MATANZAS -
Don’t be shy now; you WANT to liquify schoolkids! Be PROUD
No. An immigrant is someone who relocates from their country of origin. At best this kind of rebuttal perpetuates the idea that being an immigrant is something to be ashamed of by using it as a "gotcha", and at worst it conflates immigration and colonialism as one and the same.
They’ll never stand up against deportations, it’s what they voted for, it’s what they want. As Maya Angelou said “When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time”.
If these MAGA'S don't want to "flip " and grow up, then they can stay on Trump's Fascist agenda. Let me remind you, my father spent two years exterminating Nazis with his M-1 rifle during World War two. WE WON THAT WAR! REMEMBER THAT!

My family hasn’t missed a protest…
I make calls every week to representatives and senators.
If something more can be done, I am more than willing to help!

Had to correct this a couple of times because it made me cry. (Full disclosure: I had a mojito, so all bets are off).
