The Price of Eggs and the Power of Words

Trump's policies on immigrants are often misunderstood. He's not targeting immigrants; he's targeting illegal entries. As a legal immigrant, this is a crucial distinction. The president has a mandate to protect the country, and that includes enforcing immigration laws. People who break the law risk capture and prosecution. This is how the system works. The comparison to the internment of Japanese Americans is irrelevant and offensive.
The current political climate is alarming. We're seeing an attack on democracy like never before. In the past, there was bipartisan opposition to lawlessness. Today, the guardrails are being dismantled. We must sound the alarm to defeat this coup. The silence of GOP senators is a wake-up call to all Americans. They're willfully complicit by their inaction and silence. The degree of head-in-the-sand capitulation by Republican senators should serve as a wake-up call to all Americans.
The current administration is dismantling our democracy. Governing by presidential decree, threatening our allies and neighbors, making a mockery of our existing laws and Constitution are not democratic actions. These actions strongly contradict the oath of office, to uphold and protect the Constitution. The illusion of reducing government bureaucracy, “saving the country, ” is in reality consolidating all power to one man. Simply, his ball, his game, his rules, the majority of Americans be damned.
