This kind of corruption in ICE makes me wonder how many of the unaccounted for kids and women have been sold into slavery or had something else horrible done with them.

"A senior lawyer for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) has been sentenced to four years in prison for stealing the identities of immigrants facing deportation and using them to to take out credit cards and run up more than $190,300 in debt."

The 4th of July is a white patriotic holiday. In no point in American history has the FULL equivalence of every person in the land of America has been made equivalent to this "day".

So that shit is just yet another day to me.

"British intelligence officers witnessed prisoners being tortured and played an active part in the rendition of terror suspects into the hands of the secret police of brutal regimes knowing that they faced inhuman treatment, a damning official report has revealed."

Sometimes I attain that cold Churchillian level --- "we will fight them on the beaches, we will fight them in the streets!" --- while more often I hover around the Twelfth Doctor's "without hope, without witness, without reward".

Just be kind.

Hey, Democrats! This is the platform you're looking for.

The US shows once again that it's biggest issue isn't the alleged small minority of bigots that are passing regressive laws and policy but the absolute cowardice of the Good Whites™ to stand up, fight and be heard.

Absolutely pathetic.

Poor people don't need you to feel sorry for them.

They don't need to be reminded how people should be paying them and aren't.

They don't need to hear about how unfair anything is.

They don't need to hear how if they lived in your country they wouldn't be poor and would have health care.

They don't need compliments.

They don't need advice.

They don't need you to feel anything for them.

They need money.

To a Republican, "civility" means "give me everything I want, with a 'thank you' and a 'yes, massa'."
