The Hyundai raid was as much about helping Elon Musk’s failing Tesla and throwing Elon a bone to keep his mouth shut as it was about immigration. By stalling operations in that plant, they stop Tesla competition from making it to the market.
This was eye opening, thank you… it’s so much worse than I had ever imagined. And yes, shame, I feel it. Why don’t the people who are committing these acts seem to feel shit!!? How can so many people, in any of your examples but just say the raid, how can so many be willing to participate? That little money is nothing when I imagine the work: toxicity and cruelty and ugh the administration they work for will never be satisfied, it will never be worth it. I hope those people you hurt and tore from their families and friends haunt you until you reap what you’ve sewn! There are a lot of us ashamed of you “officials” - and want to see you when it’s time to face accountability. Officially, fuck you if you’re one of them and fuck you if you’re okay with this!
Thanks for your bibliography, it’s helpful for our own arguments to be able to cite other sources, not just our own gut feelings. Nice to be able to point to other sources which have some data, unlike the reprobates who make up their own. FOX is an obvious example of the latter. But it is also a good idea, when you’re feeling strong, to actually listen to what they are saying. (Have your barf bag nearby.). It helps to know what the other side is thinking—straight from the donkey’s ass. Then you will be able to throw their own words back at them, and cite the source. Of course, that is, if you feel you can even stomach the interaction!!
This is who we are - until we aren't. If Republican lawmakers thought they would lose if they continued their support for Trump, they'd turn against him - but, the reality is they fear they will lose if they don't support him- the numbers in GOP primaries give them pause. - This is also who we are when Dem voters stay home on election day b/c of "purity tests."
The Georgia ICE raid is all political theater. How many of these people will be released later without as much as an apology. Optics and arrests to feed the MAGA base. Disgraceful.

Solid point, Deb - oligarchs hate competition. And Elon is well on his way to being the first "trillion dollar man"
Well, it's going to take a hell of a lot more than that to help Tesla, lol
True

Excellent writing AND you brought receipts. Thank you. You should get a Pulitzer for this comprehensive, succinct.thorough expose.

Imagine being so depraved you would put that thing in the W.H. In front of your: integrity, job, promises, children, COUNTRY and OUR MFing PLANET!
Agree - it’s just sad.
Wow, thank you. It's a hard truth you're sharing. I wish people would read it, understand it and react accordingly.
But unfortunately, many people are neither informed about the history nor about the current situation.
And I don't expect the government to change anything.
Great story Marie. More should be reading it.
It wouldn't surprise me one bit if Hyundai decided to relocate the plant to Canada or Mexico.
