This stopped being about immigration once Trump's DOJ started labeling anyone who spoke out against Trump's actions as "domestic terrorists," and they started justifying ICE attacking and killing Americans in the streets. We all understand where this is heading.

In this quiet corner of government, the fate of billions is decided. You decide if it’s dollars or humans or both.
