Shameful isn't the word.

When I read that ICE was arresting parents picking up their children from school, I thought that was shameful. When I read about ICE arresting people at the hospital - either patients themselves, or parents of patients, I thought that was shameful. When I read the article about ICE arresting legal residents at a restaurant after first buying breakfast, I thought that was shameful. I thought, whatever your feelings on immigration, that all these things were contrary to simple decency - and you can believe my expectations were already low considering the conditions at detention centers.

But this? This isn't shameful. It's disgusting. What an absolute breach of basic morals.

'Shameful' raid on aid camp at US-Mexico border puts lives at risk, volunteers say.

Putting people's lives at risk? That's absolutely criminal.

Sadly, I'm not sure this is entirely his fault. He didn't personally make this directive, and he certainly didn't enforce it.

Besides, I'm not a fan of any action that's going to get us President Pence.

*shivers* I've been told that Mike is just as bad? I pray for your nation.

Well, let's rank them.

Pence Pros:

Not nearly as narcissistic as Trump
Knows how to act like a mature adult

Cons:

True believer in all that right-wing crap
Competent

So... yeah, I don't want that.

Mike seems to be better than Trump though. In Canada I am a Liberal https://www.liberal.ca/

He's not better. He just doesn't tweet about it.

Well, I'm hoping to God that something happens .... if shit comes, y'all look me up. I am in Canada.

[conuly]
