The topic of immigration enforcement is like the right’s version of Covid hysteria.
“What, do you want millions of Americans to die from illegal immigrants?”
“Just obey orders and you’ll be fine. Do your part.”
“Your rights aren’t absolute. Government officials are acting lawfully, and you don’t have the right to undermine their efforts.”
“Stay home when DHS is in your area if you don’t want to be stopped and questioned.”
“You need to carry and show your papers when you go out. It’s for everyone’s safety.”
“Trust the experts! These former DOJ prosecutors say the Fourth Amendment allows exactly this.”
“Stop spreading misinformation about ICE and CBP. Your words are dangerous and will get more people killed!”
“This is an emergency. I don’t care what the government does. We need to stop the spread of foreigners.”
“The Constitution isn’t a suicide pact.”
No one cares about the debt. If they did, politicians would feel compelled to do something about it. Of course, everyone will care when we fall off the fiscal cliff. And they’ll blame capitalism or "neoliberalism" or some other boogyman.
The Democrats’ plan will increase the national debt to $52 trillion by 2033.
The Republicans’ plan will increase the national debt to $47 trillion by 2033.
These parties are not being led by serious people.
