Acting President Miller is determined to crash the entire ship of state into the side of a mountain, and no one seems likely to stop him *before* he finishes off the legitimacy of the MAGA regime.
Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

Trump’s the son of a First Generation Immigrant Mom and his Grandpa was an immigrant who went back to marry his Grandma and was kicked out because he dodged the draft and didn’t pay taxes which is how his Dad was born in New York.
Four of Trump's five children have an immigrant mother, and the one who doesn't is married to the son of two immigrants.
Trump makes the outrageous claim that “most” immigrants, which include over 25 million U.S. citizens, “are on welfare, from failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels.”
As insulting as the “deplorables” comment, and on Thanksgiving day no less.

Our tribal ID’s validity depends entirely on the person we’re presenting it to. My attempting to use it has failed many times because of the lack of knowledge people in government have about it. After this, I expect the feds to try to further delegitimize it.

A lot of this stuff comes as really surprising if youve never heard of french politics
The new rules will ban *all prayers in public.* That's a violation of religious liberty.
The restrictions on face coverings *also* seem to me seriously unjust— and even the paternalist justifications seems self-defeating if it leads to women simply being less able to leave the house.
