For generations, if you came on a visa and applied for asylum, you would generally not be arrested even if your visa expired during the process. That’s over now. They’re arresting everyone, even people who have done legitimately nothing wrong. What a terrible, awful, inhumane, cruel policy.

Remember when Trump told Big Oil he'd deliver their wish list if they spent $1 billion to elect him president?  Well, he's been doing exactly that — and now Senate Rs want to sweeten the deal with an extra $1 billion handout.  Another windfall for Big Oil, another betrayal of working people.
