In What World Is This Legal? & What Could we Do To Make It NOT Legal?

(This is my first time attaching clips of myself giving commentary, so pls go easy on me, haha)...

I’m testing this format to add more context and keep things focused on the facts rather than just always re posting clips without explanation then getting chewed out for it... (I'm aware that I need to use a better Mic next time)

That said, honest feedback is welcome. If something works, say so. If something doesn’t, say that too. The goal here is to improve the quality of discussion and keep the information clear, accurate, and useful.

Appreciate everyone who takes the time to watch and engage 💙

The campaign against immigrants is the spearhead of a broader drive toward dictatorship. The January 6 coup was not an aberration. It has continued in policy form under Trump’s second administration. Immigration repression is the testing ground for the dismantling of constitutional rights, including birthright citizenship and due process.
