Apparently, he was eventually able to meet with him.

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command

The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.

“The New Colossus” by Emma Lazarus

Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand

In 1903, this poem was cast onto a bronze plaque and mounted inside the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty. But it seems we’ve lost the heart of our nation. From a time of welcoming and outstretched arms to those in need, the new majority is guided by disinformation, fear and hatred.

MAGA: gobbling up Trump’s bullshit since 2016.

The new POTUS is a habitual liar, felon and rapist. My basic rights and the rights of my immigrant and LGBTQIA+ family and friends are at risk. Your vote for him negated any friendship or familial tie we ever had.

Unfortunately it was writing this about Trump and it went so viral that he saw it and, I'm told, was actually upset about it.

I hoped he would still do it even after he originally said he wouldn’t. I’m glad he did. To hell with the right’s faux law and order.

The lack of self-awareness is almost impressive.

The criminal 45 got away with it. The Republican Party should no longer be allowed to claim to be the party of law and order.

The post was deleted, but it was about Nancy Mace feeling victimized and threatened, which is why she is so emphatic about bathrooms.

I’m so sorry you have to endure that. They’re the bullies; they’re the ones who are the threat.

Instead of just minding their own fucking business, Republicans have to bully those who are absolutely no threat.

This should terrify every American. It doesn’t matter where you stand on immigration. Using our military as a domestic law enforcement tool at mass scale will destroy its core purpose, turn the American people against them, and damage the institution for decades.
