THE COMPASSION IS ALWAYS SELECTIVE: No protest over 20,000 US kids separated from parents in jail.
Over 20,000 children a year are put into foster care because their American parents are taken to jail, 10 times the number of those separated when illegal immigrant parents try to sneak into the U.S. but are caught, according to a commissioner on the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights.
However, unlike the congressional outcry over President Trump’s zero-tolerance policy targeting illegal immigration, there has been no mass protest of or investigation into the separation of children from those in jail.
Weird, that.

THE INTENSITY OF THE IMMIGRATION DEBATE, EXPLAINED:

Across the West, existing voters won’t give the left the power it wants, so they’re importing new ones.
THIS IS LIKE THE KKK RUNNING AN AFRICAN-HISTORY PROGRAM: Feminist Academic Launching Masters Program in ‘Masculinities.’ “The center counts feminist icons such as Gloria Steinem, Eve Ensler, and Jane Fonda among its Board of Directors, and it is led by Michael Kimmel, a feminist academic who most recently wrote a book on ‘angry white men’ suffering from ‘aggrieved entitlement.'”

Andrew Cochrane and his mercenaries have warded off a deadly onslaught by asteroid thieves. Now they’re riding high, buying more ships and looking for more contracts.
However, the criminal Brotherhood isn’t about to accept defeat – not after Cochrane’s Company killed their Patriarch. They’re out to rebuild, rearm, and get revenge.
What started as a simple patrol job in a deserted binary star system explodes into a multi-planetary arms race, with survival on the line!

YES, MRS. BUSH, IN THE SENSE THAT THE JAPANESE WERE AMERICAN CITIZENS, WHO HAD COMMITTED NO CRIMES, WHILE THESE ARE THE ALLEGED CHILDREN OF CRIMINALS WHO ARE INVADING OUR COUNTRY, THE CASES ARE PRECISELY THE SAME.

CHANGE: Catholic Bishops Gear Up to Beat Trump in 2020. Well, they’ve proven themselves unable to maintain a community of faith in the U.S., so I guess they need to import a bunch of Catholic immigrants from Mexico and Central America to make up the difference.

IN THE FUTURE, EVERYONE WILL BE HITLER FOR 15 MINUTES — AND THE FUTURE IS NOW: Lefties claim wounded veteran working with ICE is a Nazi.
After smearing wheelchair-bound Marine Justin Gaertner, wounded in Afghanistan, because they mistook the elbow tattoo of his unit’s insignia as an iron cross, Hollywood lefty Ron Perlman tweeted, “My apologies! I mistook the symbol on this man’s arm before I actually knew the facts. So again, I apologize to the man in this picture for my mistake. Maybe it was the gusto, the relish this agency seems to project in their obsession to racially profile decent people.”
Jenny, things got a little out of hand. It’s just this war and that lyin’ son-of-a-bitch Johnson.
