May this finally, finally put to rest any idea that narratives of "illegal" immigration have anything whatsoever to do with legality, laws, "rules" which individuals can "choose" to follow. "Illegal" has always been about white supremacy & prejudice. πŸ—ƒοΈ

Video shows masked Border Patrol agent chasing woman back to her Louisiana home Jacelynn Guzman said she is a U.S.-born citizen. The Department of Homeland Security said Friday that it "determined the individual in question was not the target."

"She said she repeatedly told the agents she’s a U.S. citizen.

β€œI just kept repeating it β€” I’m a U.S.-born citizen. I was born and raised here. This is my home. My baby’s waiting for me...”

She screamed β€œLeave me alone...”

The draft dodging idiot posted a pic of this West Point plaque. It contains these words:

β€œOur American Code of Military Obedience requires that, should orders and the law ever conflict, our officers must obey the law.”

That is precisely what Senator Mark Kelly told officers to do. #NoSedition

I see your point. For my part, I had always thought of β€œThe South” as a unified entity marching lockstep towards defeat. Clearly, it was (is) more nuanced than that. That’s what I meant.
