You noticed that ICE isn't isn't heading into Compton or South Central LA to intentionally go after real gang members. No, they are going after mothers and children and the occasional gay hairdresser. Because they are cowards and this is not about stopping crime It's about starting hate

Just so we're clear... the 5th Amendment says "No person... shall be denied life, liberty, or property without Due Process." Not "no citizen," not "no person with exceptions for those in the country illegally." NO PERSON.
NO. PERSON.

If the courts can demonstrate that a CORPORATION is a person, this should be easy-peasy, lemon-squeezy.

@TheQuartering
You do NOT need the new iPad
You do NOT need the new Cell Phone
You do NOT need the new video game console

You WANT them

There is a big difference and if you look at the people whining about the tariffs I challenge you to ask them how their lives have been affected in any way

'Segregated facilities' are no longer explicitly banned in federal contracts The Trump administration cut a clause from federal contracting rules that had been on the books since the 1960s: Companies are no longer explicitly prohibited from having segregated facilities.

We reached DEFCON F*CK

Trump repealed Pres. Johnson’s 1965 EO prohibiting federal contractors from having segregated restaurants, waiting rooms, & drinking fountains.

Enter Jim Crow 2.0

Americans pay into Social Security and Medicare with their hard-earned money everyday. Now, the richest man in the world wants to eliminate them under the guise of government efficiency. No way.
