One more fucking time for the Rubepublicans in the back:
Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.
That is on the door step of our nation. This is who we should be, and the only way to build a stronger America for a stronger mankind.
Term and conditions were appended in 2019
“Give me your tired, your poor who can stand on their own two feet and who will not become a public charge,” Immigration Director Ken Cuccinelli said Tuesday morning during an interview with NPR.
When asked what he thinks America stands for, Cuccinelli said that the poem was referencing immigrants coming from Europe.
"Of course that poem was referring to people coming from Europe where they had class-based societies, people were considered wretched if they weren't in the right class"
What an ass. It wasn't the high class Europeans that were coming here to get a fresh start.
There was a Facebook meme of the Statue of Liberty helping build Trump's wall. I was just like, have you fucking idiots never heard of Emma Lazarus?
And if they won't take that American belief than how about the Christian beliefs? Proverbs 19:17, Leviticus 19:33-34
hahaha Christian beliefs... hilarious. republicans are the last people who give a shit about the bible.
The illegals can't see what is on the welcome mat because they are hopping the fence in the backyard to eat our pets, rape our women, and hide the remote.
Republican response probably.
Hey I've seen this before
This is Reich up the 1940's playbook
At work, an old guy was telling me a bunch of really important bits so I started taking notes on my hand because I forgot my notebook. He immediately stopped and said to never do that to my skin. I forgot his actual words but it wasn't a religious tone at all. It turns out his parents had been in concentration camps.
Oh, I know! Tattoo them on their forearms and maybe they could wear some kind of sign on their clothing. Wouldn't that be neat.
Maybe a little, gold sombrero on an armband.
Hey hey hey let's not just assume they're all Mexican! Let's just make a brown smiley face patch so we can include everyone they'll be deporting.
:(
we wouldnt be so crass to tattoo this number on them would we? Maybe we just chip them like animals.
Can't wait for "ear tags" to be suggested.
This has reached the point where it feels wrong to be joking with it. It's like he's not ever trying to hide it
The qons have put away the dog whistle and brought out a tuba.
Naw just tattoos on their arms. Why mess with the classics.
/s /s just in case some numpty thinks this is a good idea
"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!"[12]
Trump and many of his supporters are bigots: it's that simple.
This is why you study history. Next theyre gonna say they want to deport the immigrants to madagascar...
Then they have a conference where they figure out a Endlösung for the Migrantenfrage (the Nazis discussed three major options: simply deporting them, creating an own state for them somewhere in Africa, and killing them all)
I did nazi that coming.
It's positively inführeating.
It's göring to come back and bite them.
They say history repeats itself, but I thought we were kinda over the holocaust thing for a few more centuries.
Well, there's a war in Europe, we had a global pandemic, and fascism is on the rise, so we're just doing an early 20th century rerun.
Of course, history doesn't exactly rhyme, which is why Israel is the one doing the holocausting this time.
You are far too optimistic a person. They forced sterilized 25-50% of Native American women in the 60s and 70s who sought medical treatment or care, some were pre-teen. Native American women are still far more likely to be sterilized and at younger ages than non-natives.
I'm sorry, why are we trying to reenact revelations?
His running mate also mentioned he doesn't care if they're legal or not
More accurately, they're gonna pick and choose who gets to keep their legal status.
Misleading headline. He said they know their serial numbers. Which means they already have them. Which is worse.
The worse part is him wanting to ban the media from covering it so people won’t complain
It has been a dumping ground for immigrants for a long time. The British used to send their convicts, that didn’t make the cut for hanging but they surely didn’t want in “their” country, here to be slaves.
Not many people know that between 1718 and 1775 over 52,000 convicts were transported from the British Isles to America, mainly to Maryland and Virginia, to be sold as slaves to the highest bidder. —The History Press
I swear he's just playing into the Christians belief in an antichrist so he gets their support in destroying the world and bringing back white Jesus with the cum gutter abs
roses are red violets are blue
they don't think it be like it is
but it do.
Fox News for the next month if Harris said anything close to this:
Headline is misleading. Based on his statements, Trump thinks they already have serial numbers.
Doesn't really make it better...
They always seem to forget that every white person in the U.S. has immigrants in their family history.
I wonder where he got that genius idea? What a waste of carbon.
