MAGA does not like Catholics. It really doesn't.

Warehouses are being prepared for them.

Mormons first, though.

It's surprising the decomposing orange chomo didn't ship her to CECOT.

It's surprising that ICE didn't rape her.

#3 Who's saying they didn't?

She certainly looks like a violent felon to me.

AIPAC and status quo politicians-- Democrats and Republicans -- both want to "reform" or "fix" ICE and DHS -- not abolish them.

These dinosaurs are not on our side, but on the side of the wealthy elites.

After the Romanovs were toppled in Russia, Kerensky's centrist White govt failed. He wanted Russia to stay in the war against the Central Powers, one of the reasons why the people overthrew the monarchy and the status quo.

Staying in the center does not work. This is a tactic used by the Republicans and AIPAC to undermine the progressives.

Right and Center = Maintenance of Status Quo. Their media agents? Worthless self-serving multi-millionaires Bill Maher and Joe Rogaine. Lara Trumpf. Laura Loomer. Ad nauseum.

Left = Changing the Status Quo. NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) and the "Squad."

It's okay. She's darker than Ivory Soap. Hold on there, now, this ain't a race-based stop. Nossir, it's one a them ... them, uh, whatchamacallit, Cletus? Oh, riiiight, it's a "Kavanaugh Stop." Straight from the Soopreme Curt. Land uh da free, home uh da brave. Happy 250th!

Since she's brown, I'm sure they also mistook her for Muslim.

I'm surprised ICE hasn't also been ordered to go after the Buddhist Monks in Fort Worth.

I'm sure [ICE] mistook her for Muslim.

Well, she was dressed as a nun, so that does make sense.

Only the dumbest, most hateful Americans have chosen to join ICE.
