I am beyond livid. The US State Dept is now banning children from Gaza in need of dire medical aid. Once again a reminder that the Trump regime is a fascist regime. Smh. Horrific.

For fascists, shows of armed force are both a means and an end. At a minimum, the White House will create some good B-roll footage for Fox News broadcasts to use when hyping fears of urban crime. trib.al/2QInAXX

do I have this right? innocent immigrants are being sent to rot in a slave-labor gulag in El Salvador, because fuck you, that's why, while a convicted child sex trafficker with ties to Dear Leader is being considered for a pardon because she's been "treated so unfairly"? WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK
