What is sickening is that it is going on with no real resistance from Americans. Citizens have the power and numbers to stop it. The time for talk is over.

Why not, for starters, all ICE go immediately to the southern border. Stop all "illegal" immigration where it happens at the border. And then undocumented people if they commit a crime they face judicial review. A requirement for earning legitimate documented residency is not committing crimes.

That's it. Not these gestapo sweeps for brown or Black people. Poor people of color. That's sick and wrong. Picking on Haitians?! Give me a fucking break. Stop scapegoating other people. Make the rich pay living wages. Make them pay for govt services that we all need, even if they don't.

Bulwark ever think of camping outside a gop politician door with a tablet with pictures of this confronting them and getting their reaction? Or is like podcasting a babblethon the big most effective thing
