I hope you’re being sarcastic…
If you really think this started with Trump and stopped with Trump, that’s what they want.
This is simply a continuation of Cointelpro and we saw the same tactics used against college campus protests under Biden.
The Zenocratic party
You’re saying the Democrats, who are welcoming immigrants into sanctuary cities and fighting to protect the rights of legal immigration, are somehow also responsible for fear-mongering about immigrants?
I’m saying the Democrats who have accepted and now push the 2016 right wing framing on immigration and the border as a national security threat are fear mongering about immigrants yes. Her official platform literally has
Vice President Harris and Governor Walz believe in tough, smart solutions to secure the border, keep communities safe, and reform our broken immigration system. As Attorney General of California, Vice President Harris went after international drug gangs, human traffickers and cartels that smuggled guns, drugs, and human beings across the U.S.-Mexico border. As Vice President, she supported the bipartisan border [far-right] security bill, the strongest reform in decades. The legislation would have deployed more detection technology to intercept fentanyl and other drugs and added 1,500 border security agents to protect our border. After Donald Trump killed the border deal for his political gain, she and President Biden took action on their own — and now border crossings are at the lowest level in 4 years [why is this good if people crossing the border aren’t bad], their administration is seizing record amounts of fentanyl, and secured funding for the most significant increase in border agents in ten years. As President, she will bring back the bipartisan [far-right]border security bill and sign it into law. At the same time, she knows that our immigration system is broken and needs comprehensive reform that includes strong border security and an earned pathway to citizenship.
That’s an interesting take. What do you call it when Republicans…
Whataboutism. “The Republican party are evil so it’s alright that the Democratic party is evil too!”.
Edit: Also, I call them the thought leaders for the future of the Democratic party as they shift further and further right on these issues in the name of "compromise " and “reaching across the aisle”
They’re the ones doing that, they’re in charge right now and conducting a genocide in Gaza while fear mongering about immigrants.
Yep, the Democratic party never learns that it can’t just shame voters into compliance while offering them nothing.
My neighbor told me that they think you are a racism apologist (aka a racist).
“My racist neighbor told me a racist lie based on common racist tropes and I repeated it on the Internet to a bunch of racists, not because I’m racist but because…”
And you defended them because…
Edit: from the cited newsgaurd link in the article btw.
Lee, who described herself to NewsGuard as a Democrat who supports Donald Trump, told us that she was “shocked” to see Trump repeat the claim that she had made in a private Facebook group. "Honestly, it blew me away,” Lee said. “I didn’t think that any of this would explode to the presidency.”
As for how the story has shed a negative light on the thousands of Haitian migrants who have settled in Springfield, Lee said she was “just trying to inform people, you know, again, not saying Haitians as a whole [are] bad.”
And yes, the neighbor who told the story is outwardly racist.
For her part, Newton, Lee’s neighbor, said she remains concerned that the influx of Haitians is negatively affecting the city’s healthcare and education systems.
“I think it was two years ago now, I went to the [Bureau of Motor Vehicles] to renew my license or my tags. I can’t remember, but I was sitting in the BMV, and the only way I know to describe it is I felt like … I was transported, because all around me it was people talking a different language. … I felt like I was the minority,” she said.

RIP Aaron Bushnell and RIP to this person.
2 more martyrs in the cause of opposing the Israeli genocide.
Israel and the US killed these men.
There is no democracy in the US.
It’s a dictatorship of capital.
Look at how many polls shows high support for policies, yet they don’t get enacted. Then look at how many policies with little-no support get passed.
Isn’t it common knowledge that Netanyahu wants Trump to win?
AIPAC donates heavily to both parties.
Trump would let him level Gaza and then buy the rubble to build a resort.
As would the Democratic party and Kamala Harris, as evidenced by the fact that…he’s been actively leveling Gaza and stealing land and they have continued to support him and promising to continue support…
Israel and the US State Department are funding Donald Trump?
Having her in office gives more possibility to influence and change policy.
Based on what and using what influence? The genocidal apartheid has been around basically as long as Israel has, but just looking at the bombing aspect of the genocide.
Since oct-7 Biden and Kamala have both supported Israels right to “defensive” genocide.
Since oct-7 protesters have been trying to change that with no change on the issue from the administration.
Why would that change once they’ve already won another 4 years if it hasn’t worked so far?
The only leverage you have is your vote, if you are pledging to give it to them no matter what, and especially if they’ve already won with your vote…they have no reason to listen to you and millions to listen to the Israeli lobby.
You’re advocating we handle democrats support for Genocide the same way democrats handle Israels support for Genocide, just give them whatever they want and ask nicely for them to stop? No, I will not normalize genocide and appease the ones carrying it out.
What is the goal?
To not support a genocidal right wing candidate and make it known that they will not have the support of the anti-genocide constituency.
She can either oppose the genocide and get our vote, or she can continue supporting the genocide and not get our vote.
It’s not like we have been secretly plotting or hiding this. It’s up to her.
If she continues to support the genocide and loses, it’s only her own fault for not giving up on her support of the genocide, not ours for having the absolute lowest standards possible of “anti-genocide”…and maybe it will send a message that support for Genocide is not a winning strategy for the future.
No one is Talking about abandoning Trump, so it makes it very questionable.
Do you think the people who would abandon Harris over these issues are pro Trump to begin with? How would they abandon him if not?
People like Trump because he is a pro-genocide right winger, Kamala is supposed to be his counter.
…
So…
She’s doing exactly what I said above…
Giving/promising to give him weapons and support to use for “not genocide” while he continues to do the genocide using those weapons and support…
You: wow look how anti-genocide Kamala is! She keeps asking Hitler to stop doing genocide! While directly helping him do genocide and even vowing to defend him from others who would stop him! It’s the fact she asks him to stop that matters not the enabling!
Edit: if you’ll care to notice…she doesn’t call it a genocide. She calls it a war. A war which she blames Hamas for starting…therefore she tries to paint the genocide as falling under a “war of defense” just like Netanyahu and Israel do and exactly what she is promising to allow/help Israel with…
I told him that I will always ensure that Israel is able to defend itself, including from Iran and Iran-backed militias, such as Hamas and Hezbollah.
Hamas is a brutal terrorist organization. On October 7, Hamas triggered this war when it massacred 1,200 innocent people, including 44 Americans.
I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself, and I will always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself, because the people of Israel must never again face the horror that a terrorist organization called Hamas caused on Oct. 7,…
It’s not?
THE VICE PRESIDENT: Okay. So, I just had a frank and constructive meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu. I told him that I will always ensure that Israel is able to defend itself, including from Iran and Iran-backed militias, such as Hamas and Hezbollah.
From when I was a young girl collecting funds to plant trees for Israel to my time in the United States Senate and now at the White House, I’ve had an unwavering commitment to the existence of the state of Israel, to its security, and to the people of Israel.
Hamas is a brutal terrorist organization. On October 7, Hamas triggered this war when it massacred 1,200 innocent people, including 44 Americans.
It is important for the American people to remember the war in Gaza is not a binary issue. However, too often the conversation is binary, when the reality is anything but.
So, I ask my fellow Americans to help encourage efforts to acknowledge the complexity, the nuance, and the history of the region.
July 25, after a meeting with Netanyahu…
And let me be clear. And let me be clear. I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself, and I will always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself, because the people of Israel must never again face the horror that a terrorist organization called Hamas caused on Oct. 7,…
And know this: I will never hesitate to take whatever action is necessary to defend our forces and our interests against Iran and Iran-backed terrorists.

Harris also did not expose any daylight between herself and Biden on the Middle East when asked directly if she would be doing anything differently, including limiting arm sales to Israel.
“We have to get a deal done. This war must end, and we must get a deal that is about getting the hostages out,” she said.

The issues tab on her website
that’s not the same thing as saying Harris is “pro genocide”, she’s not.
Kamala: builds gas chamber "please don’t use this for genocide!
Hitler: uses it for genocide.
Kamala: builds another “I’m serious, please don’t use it for genocide, I will keep building them no matter what but please stop”
Hitler: uses it for genocide
Kamala: builds another “this genocide is getting old, look at all those other countries opposing you for it! Please stop, if not I’ll have to fight those other countries for you!”
Hitler: continues genocide
You: wow look how anti-genocide Kamala is! She keeps asking Hitler to stop doing genocide! While directly helping him do genocide and even vowing to defend him from others who would stop him! It’s the fact she asks him to stop that matters not the enabling!
Not liking a right wing pro-genocide candidate is a Russian twitter psyop?
NYT is HAMAS!
It seems that almost everyone has that certain age they just cave in to liberalism.
Maybe it’s easier to to delude yourself than accept that your life’s work never came to fruition.

Jokes on them, China is secretly preparing for military action against the US in 2026.
America, like always, late to the party!
