This is easily one of the best examples of exactly how performative American Politics is. This entire photo op, and the fact that nothing really changed for those kids in cages, and the fact that there are still hundreds of children separated from their families, should cause any functional human being to develop total disgust and contempt for our political system.
Its been a really long time since i heard anything anything about kids in cages in the us, i presume thats still happening, it just doesnt get mentioned now?
It is still happening: Report reveals migrant family separations continue under Biden.
The reality is, regardless if the separations were “calculated and deliberate” or the “result of bureaucratic processes, lack of transparency and accountability”, the separations are still happening. The “bureaucratic processes, lack of transparency and accountability” is the direct result of a complete lack of empathy from the administration, and a total disregard for the lives of these migrants. It doesn’t matter if the cruelty is “purposeful” or the result of “indifference”, It’s still cruelty. “Indifference” can be “calculated and deliberate”. Is the cruelty at play here opaque or transparent? That’s the real question. The Biden administration’s “indifference” is absolutely opaque cruelty.
To do nothing would show your hand, to do almost nothing gives you cover.
I guess I should say thank you :(
They aren’t technically in cages anymore so there isn’t the press coverage. Things are still pretty terrible. Instead there are the open air holding camps that the Border Patrol is funneling people into. Camps that children are starving and freezing in. And once children do get processed, they are still separated from their families and no one is doing any real checks on the people they are being sent to. It is likely that a large number of migrant children have been victims of labor trafficking.
With the government struggling at the time to place children in safe homes, one caseworker said supervisors were warned that adoption attempts by some sponsors may indicate children were at risk because the sponsor was trying to take on at least a half-dozen children, a common indicator of labor trafficking. For instance, workers discovered that purportedly different guardians living at several addresses in one U.S. city had ties back to the same person, documents show. That suggested one sponsor was recruiting children for work, they said.
I regret asking… thank you
Biden’s America! Anyone actively supporting him or his party deserve the wall
They should try something like announcing their plan to bring back prohibition or saying they’re gonna make us go to war with Paraguay because the country has bad vibes. That’ll definitely win them the very real and statistically significant moderate Nazi vote
war with Paraguay because the country has bad vibes
Colorado Party in shambles. The Dems would probably win the Bolivian-American vote if they did that though, maybe they will even find a 130 year old Huey Long (Weird, but he supported Paraguay during the 1920’s and 1930’s during the Chaco war) living in there.

Paraguay is known for Illegal Whisky Trafficking lol
go to war with Paraguay because the country has bad vibes
“Not impressed, go to the end of queue”
If Trump wins, it’ll be because the audience didn’t clap for Tinkerbell hard enough and they should be ashamed.
A Harris win will prove that moving to the right works as an electoral strategy and more Dems need to embrace fascism.
A Trump will will prove that outreach to the left doesn’t work, they aren’t reliable voters, and Dems need to abandon these outdated socialist principles.
At least thay stopped they did the work to stop those pesky Greens candidates getting too many votes! Phew that was close!
the recent election in queensland, the ‘labor’ party poured a lot of work into attacking the other ‘progressive’/green party, and labor lost power for the first time in a decade
the funny thing is the conservatives are a coalition, labour could be too.
anyway
queensland
queen
:gui:
When you’re almost at the finish line in Mario Kart and you got Blue Shell’d
God that photo op brings back memories lmao.
This fucking photo op. She never gave a shit, she went for the “look at how sad I am outside the concentration camp, remember orangemanbad and vote blue!” pic to help boost her own career.
She had her own documentary made for her which was just a 1 hour half vote blue ad showing how “progressive” she is and not like the others and how the dems need people like her to make the country better again
If they win though, they would be so happy, they can say fuck the left without a mask. NLRB will be gone in 2 years, so make connections accordingly
she’s wearing this outfit because she had plans afterward to attend a White Party with Diddy in LA
Dems after conceding the contested election to help the country move forward.
“Why would the left do this?”
Just like when giving gop everything they want in bills while getting no concessions in return
