“The U.S. cannot treat Colombian migrants as criminals,” Petro wrote. Petro said even though there were 15,660 Americans without legal immigration status in Colombia, he would never carry out a raid to return handcuffed Americans to the United States. “We are the opposite of the Nazis,” he wrote, in a jab at Trump. Mexico also refused a request last week to let a U.S. military aircraft land with migrants.

    I only call things that are tied to Marxist theory by way of identity politics “woke”. Firing people who head giant departments and are doing a poor job of it isn’t “woke”, it’s holding people accountable. If you don’t do your job well, you should be fired. It’s not that hard.

    And I’m agnostic, but love that Insta-hate towards people who practice religion, that’ll work out for you in the end. :)

    I personally think making changes takes action, and that’s what we’re getting now. Action.

          This is a the first plane crash in the U.S. in 16 years, and it happened in Trump’s second week as President, one week after he signed an executive order to eliminate aviation safety advisory committees and his current nominee for Transport Secretary is a guy from MTV’s The Real World.

            Lol, what? There was just a crash near Hawaii in 2021. You don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about.

            And the recent crash had literally nothing to do with anything trump has done.
