This has been going on for I think roughly 10 years.
I am happy if the news wants to get concerned now about any particular aspect of our immigration system, now that the whole operation has reached overt-King-George levels of tyranny and fucked-up-ness and is starting to metastasize to engulf citizens also, but really the whole system already needed to get thrown away completely and unfucked from the ground up. Fortunately there's approximately a 0% chance of that happening now for the forseeable future without a revolution.
Hooray.
Agree, trump’s White House is bad and evil and dumb all at the same time, but they are just exploiting the soles and loopholes and pushing boundaries. They’re not coming up with much new shit. The Republican Party need to get a spine and the Democrats need to get some balls.
No, both need to fucking go. The only reason Trump had as much success as he did is because the GOP has been proto-fascist for at least 40 years and the DNC in the pockets of the oligarchs for about as long. The implication that either is salvageable if they just do one simple thing is not only fundamentally flawed; it's dangerous. Americans, you're now staring down a revolution and need to think long and hard about what kind of society you want to make after it ends.
