    It’s the blacks, it’s the jews, it’s the foreigners, it’s the gays, the arabs the women, the homeless, the sick, the poor, … it’s who now… ? Who are we going to blame in a simple way to understand so that we, the rulers, don’t need to share?

      Yeah, it really sucks how both sides have decided to go all in on this racist bullshit recently instead of standing up for asylum rights when global climate change is only going to be making them more vital

      Even Harris’s immigration policies reflect this shift in rhetoric. Her focus on border enforcement and deterrence over more comprehensive immigration reform echoes Trump’s approach to securitize the border. Her controversial comments during a 2021 trip to Guatemala, where she told migrants, “do not come,” reinforced narratives that criminalize migration rather than address its root causes.

      Harris’s campaign manager, Julie Chavez Rodriguez, has said if elected, she would continue Joe Biden’s crackdown on asylum claims. Harris has also promised to revive a border security deal that collapsed in Congress earlier this year after Trump told Republicans to reject it. If passed, the legislation would have implemented permanent restrictions of asylum.

    And others pay for it. Haitians in Springfield, Ohio, are keeping their children home and reporting damage to their property as anti-immigrant conspiracy theories spread, fanned by statements by Trump and Vance
