So not only do those in power seek temporal condemnation for immigrants. This makes it plain that they believe immigrants deserve eternal damnation as well. These tyrants and thugs may be "christians" but followers of Christ they are not.

The federal government is actively refusing to seat a duly elected representative. This is tyranny plain and simple. If you dont want to call it fascist for whatever reason, fine. But it is Tyranny of the highest order.

David began running in the scorching sun after the car and watched as it disappeared from sight—soon headed to a Louisiana ICE prison.

Here's their story.
