Our supposed leaders like Ashley caused this, and we can't trust them to fix it. It's time to bring our working class movment to Washington to fight for higher wages, affordable healthcare, and finally getting big money out of politics!

I'm very tired of repeating myself about this, but, as someone who works professionally on housing affordability, this is a disgusting lie.
Vance: "Why have rents gone down for 4 consecutive months? Because we're starting to get those illegal aliens out of the USA. Those criminals, those gang members, those people that are taking homes that ought by right go the people in this room. It's simple economics."

Here is a map of the affected countries (excluding Tonga), to give you a sense of how much this new ban restricts immigration from Africa in particular.
Of the newly-added country, Nigeria faces the largest impact, with tens of thousands of visas issued every year to Nigerians.

The absolute seething resentment that people with names like Ta-Nehisi Coates, Nikole Hannah-Jones and Clint Smith write best-sellers and win awards. It doesn't matter how few black writers there are, every single one is a usurper of their birthright

Now that Trump has banned migration from 20 more countries, most in Africa, worth recalling this quote from Stephen Miller that we dredged up: "If you import the Third World, you become the Third World."

American anti-Semitism is not primarily a partisan phenomenon, but a generational one. Jews constitute just 2 percent of the American population, but they’ve assumed much larger and more sinister proportions in the imagination of the country’s youth.
