"Migrants at a Miami immigration jail were shackled with their hands tied behind their backs and made to kneel to eat food from styrofoam plates “like dogs" according to a {Human Rights Watch} report."

The thing about Republicans is that they’re excellent at grievance politics.
That’s why they do so well while in the minority.
They also have the entire ecosystem of Fox News, Newsmax, Breitbart, podcasts, CPAC, etc. - it’s designed to sell anger and fear - not designed to sell solutions.
But when they’re in the *majority* and they actually have to govern.
They have no fucking clue how to do it.
And they end up running a complete shit show for 24 months before Americans take the keys away.
Over and over again.
🚨 BREAKING: ICE secretly deported Luis Leon, an 82-year-old torture survivor and U.S. legal resident of nearly 40 years, after he walked into an immigration office to replace a lost green card.
Instead of processing the request, ICE handcuffed him, detained his wife for 10 hours, and later told the family; through a fake “lawyer,” that he was dead.
Turns out, ICE quietly transferred him through a Minnesota detention center and dumped him in Guatemala, a country he has zero ties to. There’s no deportation paperwork, no public record. His family only found him alive after relatives in Chile tracked him to a Guatemalan hospital.
Leon suffers from diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart issues. The DOJ is now under fire, but this is the Trump-era immigration machine still in motion—cruel, unaccountable, and lawless.
If they can disappear an elderly, law-abiding U.S. resident…
They can disappear anyone.
“Not easy for In N Out to do business in California...”
Said the person who became a billionaire doing business almost exclusively in California. So much so, it was a point of pride for the chain.
Gotcha.
@fasttwitchspeed@conservmillen “The bulk of our stores will still be in California.” Did you miss that part? Also, California has the 4th biggest economy on planet earth. God, you MAGA fucks are so damn stupid.
"We have a newspaper that's printed once a week, so without the radio station, we're kind of in the blind here, locally."

I debated 20 far-far-far-right conservatives on Jubilee's 'Surrounded.'
Below are some brief highlights of them unable to answer my basic questions or rebut the simplest of points. Not sure whether to laugh or cry.
Here's the full eye-opening 'debate': https://t.co/VG2vnik1J0
@KristiTalmadge@SenJohnKennedy A fucking moron is what you are. You don’t even know what crime it is you want to be “dealt with,” you just want to own the libs. Silly bitch, go take a nap.
Sen. Dick Durbin is demanding answers from Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, and Dan Bongino after he says his office was told that FBI agents looking through the Epstein files "were instructed to 'flag' any records in which President Trump was mentioned." https://t.co/xAyy2EjDyS
The Department of Labor has quietly ended its only nationwide job training program for low-income seniors just as tens of thousands must meet new work requirements for Medicaid and food assistance.

@OKgoshno Blah blah blah. The GOP is currently 1) trying to repeal marriage equality, 2) kicked trans folk out of the military, 3) on a mission to purge all nonwhite immigrants from the U.S., 4) trying to revoke no fault divorce, 5) thinks every black success is DEI, 6) supports a pedo.
@OKgoshno Man, please. Let’s see, MAGA hates immigrants, trans folks, non-MAGA people of color, liberals, the media, Hollywood, the NBA, Disney, and that’s just off the top of my head. The left hates MAGA.
The two are not the same.
