Just reading about Anderson’s Pea Soup in Buellton, CA. It has closed and is scheduled for demotion.
It’s been a Highway 101 landmark since 1924. I can remember eating there with my grandparents in the early 1960s.
I’m broken hearted.

This is an official plan for ethnic cleansing. If you supported Israel for the past 18 months or so under the assumption that this was about the hostages you were taken for a ride.
If you still support Israel's assault on Gaza, you support ethnic cleansing. It's that simple.

If anyone you know in ICE tells you they’re “just following orders” remind them of the following:

- they’re aware of the SCOTUS ruling and numerous injunctions around the illegality of what they’re doing
- feigning ignorance will not soften their place in history…or in America.
