Rep #HakeemJeffries of NY, the #Democratic leader, just went past the 6-hour mark on his floor speech. He condemned #Republicans for an “all-out assault on law-abiding #immigrant #families,” including #AmericanCitizens, saying it was “unconscionable, unacceptable & it’s un-American.” The #OneBigBeautifulBill includes about $175 billion for the #Trump admin to boost #immigration enforcement & border security.
A deeply personal share.
I would love to only post about #fitness, healthy living, and create the illusion that all is well. But that would be dishonest to my principles and values.
Those cheering “Alligator Alcatraz” aren’t just spectators— They’re part of a growing effort to normalize dehumanization through policy, rhetoric, and spectacle.
Some can scroll past this.
I can’t.
