The ongoing protests and images coming out of Minnesota have prompted concerns from some Trump administration officials over the optics of the immigration crackdown as Americans grow alarmed by the chaotic scenes unfolding in the state.
Donald Trump has expressed frustration behind closed doors that the immigration messaging is getting lost, sources familiar with the discussions told CNN. Trump has sought to take control of the narrative, starting with an impromptu press conference on the anniversary of his first year in office.
Don’t use their language. These aren’t “illegals”. They are undocumented immigrants. That’s in general, and specifically, the goons are assaulting, disappearing and killing American citizens and documented people, women and children, old people, quiet, hardworking people.
Your point about data not supporting any kind of presence in Minnesota versus Texas and Florida is true. But “Illegals”, used in any context, only does work for the bad guys here.
Likewise, Renee Good and Alex Pretti weren’t murdered, they were killed in undocumented uses of force.
An undocumented immigrant is here illegally, it is what it is.
You’re missing the point, if you continue with this language, you’re knowingly complicit in normalizing the idea that Ice’s target are “illegals” when they ate actually targeting anyone brown or perceived as resistance, regardless of any supplied paperwork, even when openly provided. Stop broadly referring to this effort as targeting “illegals”.
It’s a term intentionally used in this context to lessen the humanity of these people. You know that.
Targeted by ICE or not … an illegal is an illegal. There are 3-5 times more in Texas and Florida. It is what it is. Words are not crimes.
Nobody said “words are crimes”? You sound like an eternal victim with that nonsense. Keep doubling down and leaning on that garbage though and watch when you magically end up included in the next group of targeted “illegals”.
Go read, “first they came for”.
You’re an “illegal” everytime you drive 1 mph over the speed limit, jaywalk or miss the trash can with since garbage that falls to the floor.
