This needs to be a series.
Next is with one of them holding an "Abortion is murder" sign while the other says, let them finish my procedure first, it's medically necessary.

“Our nation is a nation of immigrants. More than any other country, our strength comes from our own immigrant heritage and our capacity to welcome those from other lands." -Ronald Reagan
It's ridiculous how far right the USA has moved when it comes to immigration. Reagan was a scumbag overall but was right about this. Frankly it pisses me off that even the Democrats are so far right on this.
Of course Reagan meant [white] immigrants.

Agreed, and I think maybe we should remove the plaque from the Statue of Liberty as it clearly no longer applies.
"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
Reagan was an idiot about a lot of things. His policies were often at odds with his rhetoric which was quite progressive for its time and place. If you listened to him though, he was not openly hostile to immigration. Neither him nor H.W. where on the scale of today's right.
I really think the right of the 80s/90s is way different than todays right.
ah I'm mistaken. why do they hate NATO so much?

What are you talking about? Pedro is the exception, the one good guy. They won't deport him, I need him! They can't do that to me, can they?
I mean the evacuation of the Jews, the extermination of the Jewish race. It’s one of those things it is easy to talk about, “the Jewish race is being exterminated,” says one party member, “that’s quite clear, it’s in our program, elimination of the Jews, and we’re doing it, exterminating them.” And then they come, 80 million worthy Germans, and each one has his decent Jew. Of course the others are vermin, but this one is an A-1 Jew.
-Heinrich Himmler to senior SS officers, 1943.
replace "jews" with "palestinians" and it reads like Isralei leadership's statements now.
https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israeli-ministers-call-erase-palestinian-village-an-incitement-violence-us-says-2023-03-01/ "Asked about a weekend settler rampage through the Palestinian village of Huwara, which an Israeli general on Tuesday described as a "pogrom," Smotrich said: "I think that Huwara needs to be erased"."
https://www.commondreams.org/news/smotrich-gaza-annihilation "In just the latest example of a top Israeli official openly calling for the elimination of Gaza and the 2.3 million Palestinians who live there, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich on Tuesday demanded the destruction of cities and refugee camps in the blockaded enclave.
"There are no half measures," said Smotrich at a government meeting. "Rafah, Deir al-Balah, Nuseirat—total annihilation."
"'You will blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven,'" he added, quoting the biblical story of the nation of Amalek, whose people God commanded the Israelites to exterminate and which right-wing Israeli leaders have long invoked to justify the killing of Palestinians."

He's a good hombre.
"Mommy, why did we send Jesus to a concentration camp?"
They claim to love Jesus, so maybe they will spare him.
Immigrant workers in the US are the definition of essential workers. Many work hard agricultural jobs and take exploitatively low wages to do so.
They'll be "detained" in for profit prisons and then under the federal prisoner labor program they'll get paid 10 cents an hour to do the same work. The detention will end up becoming indefinite and private corps will reap the profits of modern-day slavery on a bigger scale than they already do from our (disproportionately) large incarcerated population.
And Californian’s rejected a ballot measure to make this illegal, so they’re getting what they wanted.
Absolutely insane this measure was rejected

It’s ok. Once DOGE kills the economy, everybody will be eager to trim trees and drive Uber and deliver DoorDash. Except there won’t be anyone able to pay them to do that.
Nonsense, the FREE MARKET will provide. The FREE MARKET loves us and wants to protect us from the mean old world.
The FREE MARKET that bans all freedom by placing Tariffs against other countries to control the market and banning the production of products such as lab grown meats before they come to market and car sales from manufacturers to consumers without having middle men. (Those 2 are just Florida examples).
We want the enslaved market
Yep, the FREE MARKET working as the founding fathers intended...
I work with a ton of immigrants and some I have known for for 20 years. The thought of losing them is just painful.
See, your problem is thinking they are humans. You should be treating them like immigrants instead.

I doubt they would’ve even taken the sign off the lawn.
This racist joke that all "hispanics" are illegals must stop.
Jokes on them, Pedro has a business license, and is legally here. He wants the illegals taking advantage of the system to stop taking his opportunities.
It's not a joke based on nothing. It's based on how many of the people who want mass deportation will always assume someone is an immigrant based on looks, language, skin color. I've seen lots of right wing people talk about seeing illegals at an airport or non Americans. How do they know? Did they check their papers, passport, etc?
No. They just looked at em and knew somehow.
So fucking true
I thought the reason trump won was the Hispanic support. That was what was so strange about this election.
No. The reason he won was because of apathy and despair.
If "Did Not Vote" was a candidate in 2024:
It's not any more strange than literally any republican voting to shoot themselves in the foot. Nobody benefits from it. Not even the rich! It just feeds their money addiction like a drug dealer feeds a junkie.
I think the bigger reason Trump won is a bunch of people didn't feel like it was worth voting. And now they will find out why that was a bad move.
Yup. But just remember that everyone, possibly including the native nations are all immigrants. Now the native nations were here first so obviously they should call the shots.

Do not use a chainsaw like that. yikes.
thankyou.gif
The artist obviously haven't used a chainsaw. That guy is about to get a face full of knocked backed chainsaw, let's hope the brake works.
Edit: I just noticed how his feet are positioned. WTF? both feet flat on the ground! Is he walking beneath the branch he's cutting? Gah!
