Sadism On Our Dime
Secret Facebook group not the first, and Customs and Border knew about these groups for years
A Facebook group of nearly 10,000 Border Patrol agents traded jokes about immigrants dying, sexually tinged images of Hispanic politicians and threats of physical violence against Democratic lawmakers. But now those in charge insist these “bad apples” are going to be “disciplined.”
Really? Mark Morgan, the new acting chief of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, is going to discipline these guys? Really?
This is the same Mark Morgan who in January said on Tucker Carlson Tonight,
"I’ve been to detention facilities where I’ve walked up to these individuals that are so-called minors, 17 or under...I’ve looked at them and I’ve looked at their eyes, Tucker — and I’ve said that is a soon-to-be MS-13 gang member. It’s unequivocal.”
The current head of U.S. Customs and Border Protection is going to discipline these border agents by doing what? Giving them a raise and promotion?
One of the benefits to getting older is wisdom.
Let me impart some. Any American citizen who thinks it's perfectly OK to do what we're doing to the undocumented Americans along the border is one paycheck away from financial ruin.
I can assure you, that any American citizen who relishes the sadism taking place with our tax dollars is in fact maxed out on his or her credit cards and holding on to some fever dream that their upside down mortgage will right itself, or that Thurman Munson rookie card in their safe isn't a forgery.
People who vote for Trump are uneducated, poor, and angry. They should be angry. At the Republicans they voted for. It's no crime to be poor and uneducated. It's a crime to look for someone weaker to take it out on.
To every American religious leader who remains silent, let me say from the bottom of my heart that you are way more to blame than anyone who works for I.C.E. People who work for I.C.E. are sexually repressed thugs who have found a legal way to inflict pain. What's your excuse?
Every religious leader who remains silent is a worthless piece of human excrement and I strongly urge religious Americans to hold their religious leaders accountable.
I.C.E. is running concentration camps. And after we close those camps, then we need to tackle the conditions in our prisons. I can assure you the least surprised by the conditions in these concentration camps are the 2.5 million Americans getting raped in our prisons.
Stop with the patriotism. Stop with the American flag. This country has to earn my respect. And it's failing. This July 4th I take two fucking knees.
And to those who say why don't you move someplace else, I'm trying. Guess what! They don't want us.
