Republicans are increasingly concerned that immigration enforcement is becoming a political liability in the upcoming midterm elections after two people were killed by federal agents during Donald Trump’s crackdown in Minneapolis.
Although few are willing to publicly break with the president, there has been a crescendo of criticism as Republicans nudge the White House to change course.
A looming end-of-week funding deadline has brought the issue to a head in Congress, with Democrats vowing to block Homeland Security funding without significant changes and Republicans struggling to find their footing.
What midterms?
Obama and Biden deported way more people without brutal violence and death being shown on social media for all to see.
I keep hammering this point when people try to praise Trump’s asinine immigration crackdown.
Donnie Dickhead makes everything worse, not better.
I’ve told my parents that until they stop supporting anyone that is helping this enforcement, they can’t talk to the grandkids.
If they’re that stupid and hateful, probably shouldn’t let them anyway
I’m not going to support their actions but propaganda is a hell of a drug.
Not wrong, my biological dad, despite being Canadian, supports maga stuff, I pity him more than I hate him. I think part of the maga mindset is digging your heels in despite proof, it makes it extra hard for them to come to reason
“Don’t bother me with facts, my mind is made up.”
I am fairly convinced that older family member babysitting is part of what led to the right leaning Gen Z.
Alt-right pipeline is full of immature gamers who speak authoritatively. It’s not the grandparents, it’s twitch and kick
Talking to your kids about this stuff often and at an early age is a must for parents.
That’s downright responsible. You wouldn’t want them to pick up hateful beliefs.
It can directly affect their family members. So I told them that they don’t get the benefits of their family and also get to support people that hurt those members.
A Republican strength attracting the votes of racist, xenophobic Americans who then wonder why there aren’t enough workers.
Just keep hammering on that point: when they talk about “controlling immigration,” they mean jackbooted goons murdering people in the streets and kidnapping kids.
Imperfect but noticeably sad trombone noises
