Conservative Georgia town pushes back against ICE detention center: β€˜We are Americans after all’ Social Circle, a mostly Maga town, builds strange bedfellow coalition against plans to convert warehouse

"The Social Circle city manager was contacted by ICE...

β€œThey asked me to turn on the water,” he said of a 1m sq ft warehouse nearby that the government plans to use for locking up as many as 10,000 detainees.

β€œI told them I’m not going to do it,” he said...

The ICE concentration camp in Dilley, Texas has an alarming record of horrific abuses and abject neglect within its walls.

Call your Senators and Representatives and urge them to work towards the release of all children in abusive detention camps!

Screenshot of a CNN segment shared by Acyn. A split-screen shows commentator Lydia Moynihan on the left and Kevin O’Leary on the right during a heated exchange. The chyron reads, β€œObama: Dems need to avoid scolding and β€˜virtue-signaling.’” The post quotes O’Leary referencing China and concentration camps, and McGowan responding about West Virginia.

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

That... is the opposite of correct πŸ˜‚ 1. obviously Zionists will say Zionism is good, and 2. That is not even remotely how a strawman argument works.

On empathy and other liberal zionist canards As an effective propaganda tool, Liberal Zionism promotes a normalisation which colonises the mind.

On the contrary, I think it sounds like you have no idea what Liberal Zionism is and how it works. This article is written by an Israeli-American antizionist doctor of psychology. β€œAs an effective propaganda tool, Liberal Zionism promotes a normalisation which colonises the mind.”

Haaretz is not left-wing, it's liberal Zionist. Liberal Zionism is still Zionism, just with a different approach to the propaganda.

Beejhy Barhany is literally an IDF soldier. She posts videos with Noa Tishby. Please don't spread Haaretz propaganda. New York does not want IDF soldiers running restaurants in Harlem.

Susan Collins Is Getting More Money From AIPAC Than Small Donors As oysterman Graham Platner handily outraises Republican Susan Collins, the pro-Israel lobby collected nearly 20% of her donations for her.

New: Susan Collins raised more from AIPAC donors last year than small donors.

We asked her campaign about it. They hung up.

Last year, we asked if she knew how many Americans the Israeli military had killed.

She replied: β€œI am pro-Israel.”
