EVERYTHING IS AWFUL What is wrong with us?

If today wasn't terrible enough with the senseless and tragic shooting during a mass, we then have the Trump Administration release this doozy.

DHS moves to bar aid groups from serving undocumented immigrants

Salvation Army, Red Cross, etc.

Literally my thought right after I read the article.

Yup. It's repulsive in its own right but extra so when considering the nauseating moral hypocrisy of sooooo many of those that will support it (and so much else). The American leaders/pastors & priests of the non-Evangelical churches have largely failed on this front, too.

DHS can try all they want, they aren't going to stop these groups from serving those in need.

That is what I would hope, but I've been disappointed before by people and organizations I thought who were stronger.

The GICEtapo is just preparing themselves to do raids on soup kitchens and homeless shelters. Anyone guilty of receiving aid while brown (and therefore a "suspected illegal immigrant") will get nabbed. Similarly anyone providing aid to anyone brown (and therefore a "suspected illegal immigrant") will also get nabbed. Because of course, because people providing aid are likely to be woke.

But when the GICEtapo does raids on farms and factories they will keep rounding up anyone guilty of working while brown (and therefore a "suspected illegal immigrant"). However they will continue to leave the farm and factory owners to go about their business. Because of course. Because farm and factory owners are more likely to be Trump voters.

All makes perfect sense to me.

I believe we will see lawsuits very shortly. The government is out of control. This is absolutely illegal. The churches better step in now and wield any power they have left. For the good of their faith and beliefs. Crazy that all these middle aged tyrants grew with WWJD bracelets.
