    JFC, what do these people think signs like "mass deportation now" even mean?

    I guess conservatives have been conducting war on logic, reason, and even the English language for so long, that the people soaking in all that propaganda have had their brains fried.

    Translated: this has nothing to do with immigration, the problem is the $120 it takes to fill my brodozer and my grocery bill has doubled. Now I care.

    $120 on the lower end. Average is 4.30/ gal, if they fill up 26 gallon tank, they may come under. If they go for something higher grade or live in a state that is above average, or things fluctuate a bit because donnie tweets out something stupid or Iran hits another tanker, etc., I'm sure it's easy to go over $120.

    If they are filling up a diesel truck - let's say 31 gallon tank at $6.28/ gal - that's just under $200! And that's average - in California, it looks like the average is $8.39 = $260 for a 31 gallon tank, holy shit.

    Talk about taking it right in the shorts all because you hate brown people, damn.

    Immigrants, Minorities (race and sexuality) and Children are all human and deserve basic human rights.

    all those in PA remember one thing. If you vote for Frank Pastella and the rest of the republicans, you vote to let Pastella rape your kids. Vote no to Republikkkans like Frank Pastella to keep their dicks outside of your children's bodies.

    What struck me in this article was the use of the word "hardline".

    From restaurants to farms to healthcare, the US president’s hardline policies have reshaped Americans’ daily lives

    Trump was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, and he seems quite anti-American in a cultural sense, none of that "Live and let live" woke culture. We need Democrats to be much more "hardline" against wealth and privilege then they have been in the past.
