Trump has revoked legal status for at least 1.6 million immigrants over the past year by cancelling programs like TPS and student visas.

Trump never cared about “legal immigration" — just inflicting cruelty.

A corrupt banker was being prosecuted for bribery, so his daughter donated $2.5M to Trump's super PAC—and suddenly, Trump's DOJ overruled career prosecutors and let him off with a fucking misdemeanor.
