    Donald Trump told Fox News that he opposes the Senate immigration deal and wants Speaker Mike Johnson to oppose it too.

    He said he doesn’t think it’s needed to secure the border.

      Ted Kaczynski also occasionally said some correct things and deserved to be in a prison cell

      The time for immigration reform is after the Democratic party has secured a filibuster proof majority in the Senate and control of the House and doesn’t have to humor these racist douchenozzles anymore

        We haven’t touched immigration laws for 33 years. We are essentially working off of 1965 framework. While we have far more people trying to immigrate, we also have a political party that enjoys using it as a wedge issue. Rather than taking more children from their parents, IMO it is the time to act and not wait for the perfect occasion

          This is no kind of problem, we have plenty of space and material wealth to support a lot more people here, we just lack the political will to see it distributed efficiently

          we also have a political party that enjoys using it as a wedge issue

          Which is why we should be reminding people that this isn’t a problem, instead of validating that shithead political party by pretending like it is with trash legislation like this

          With global climate change set to get really bad in the next century, this is the absolute wrong time for us to be listening to the selfish idiots who think they can just hide behind a wall while millions of people die and that that won’t come back on them or their descendants in any way
