It’s trials w real punishments.

A mere 80% of Americans live in urbanized areas, which has put them completely out of touch with the 20% majority

every smug internet communist tweet about showing up to a No Kings protest with an abolish ICE shirt to scare the libs is getting completely mogged by the real-life winemoms showing up with slogans like "ICE will melt in hell"

Political parties must shift immediately and dramatically to the left to avoid alienating these frustrated and abandoned young women. Am I doing this right?

White words on a black background read: 50+ Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally.
