The left lectures about “empathy” while Washington Rep. Jayapal (D) tells Mrs. Gorman—who’s daughter, Sheridan Gorman, was gunned down by an illegal—today at Capitol Hill that a hearing about sanctuary cities was a waste of time. Such cruel ass people.

I love the left’s method of deflecting and avoiding the topic. Now imagine lecturing to this woman who lost HER DAUGHTER about how Trump is bad. Practicing that “empathy” huh

I know you guys aren’t capable of understanding how the government works but it really is a pointless hearing, Gorman was rolled out as a prop

I don’t even know the race of the person that killed Sheridan. Race is perceived differently in Latin America and different parts of the world so it could’ve been a “white” illegal for all we know. I only give a shit that this could’ve been avoided completely without these “sanctuary city” states circumventing federal law.

It turns out the only time the right cares about gun violence is when it’s a minority or an immigrant

The right is racist in aggregate. Even if you assert that you aren’t, it’s still true that other right wingers obsess over minority gun violence by non-immigrants.

Racism in America probably could’ve completely died in the 80s if it wasn’t for these oppressive leftist morons who keep it alive as a campaign tactic

Also like it’s hard to pretend American immigration policy isn’t just being racist when white South Africans are being shipped in and given free android tablets. Meanwhile afghans who helped US forces are stranded and they’re trying to revoke the legal status of Haitians.

Nah that would be Reagan using racist backlash against inter-school busing to help himself get elected. Southern strategy. Google it. The republicans have been coasting on backlash to desegregation for the last 60 years.

Also aren’t you right wingers the guys freaking out over “anti-racism?” I distinctly remember republicans in congress losing their shit because Ketanji Brown Jackson supported anti-racist literature.

There’s no way 350k afghans provided direct support to the U.S. military. And why are over 50% of them unemployed and on welfare? Also Afghanistan is a completely different country than Haiti, btw, in case you didn’t know.

So your answer is that clearly no afghans helped the military? Because that’s how many are getting admitted now. Where are you getting 350k from?

Yeah but Afghanistan is brown to Americans. Thats the through line here. Those Haitians JD Vance was lying about eating pets were legal temporary residents. But they were brown, so they were fearmongered. But those white South Africans aren’t fearmongered about. I wonder what makes them different… why are they the only refugees we are admitting now… hmmmmmmmmmm

CNN. But it’s not like that matters to y’all, always moving the goalposts. Obviously a few helped the military but, as we’ve seen with Sarah Beckstrom and Andrew Wolfe, obviously that’s NBD if they don’t get everything they want.

The whole white South African thing is just Republicans trolling y’all. Obviously with the way the left is defending Karmelo Anthony for killing a white guy for offending him, well, they won’t fare much better here if they truly feel like they’re escaping danger.

If someone’s refugee policy is “trolling”-based, they should be nowhere near government ever.

I love when the left pontificates on a specific point and thinks it makes their entire argument valid.

Can you send the CNN link? “A few helped the military.” Yeah. Thousands did. And now they’re stranded. They helped us and we abandoned them.

So let me get this straight. You think the government should be “trolling” people by spending government money giving white South Africans free android tablets, and shipping them here, while actual refugees are being denied entry? What about Nigerian Christians? Chinese christians? Uyghurs? Iraqi Christians? Cubans? All these groups the right claims to care about.

What about 9/11? Are you now pretending the U.S. invaded Afghanistan selflessly? That it had no self-interest in doing so?

Americans perceive afghans as brown. Legally speaking, middle easterners and Mexicans are considered white in the USA. But most Americans do not perceive them as such.

Americans do not base their racial prejudice on who is actually white or not. It is simply enough to be of an ethnicity who is perceived as being not white, regardless of their whiteness. In this case, being Muslim makes them into a racialized “other”.
