re: #8 Citizen K

Isn’t it funny how veterans become a priority only when they can be used as a cudgel against immigrants? Much the same way the poor become a priority only when they can be used against ‘migrant workers’, much the same way mental health becomes a priority only when it can be used against gun control, much the same way…

You don’t give a flying fuck about veterans past using them as a prop to get your hate on, you sad, sad little hatemonger. Go home, Tomi, it’s late.

Veterans who are DREAMers. Under the GOP proposals, they’d be screwed and they and/or their families would be deported.

Veterans first? No. It’s nativist/xenophobic policies first and foremost. @josephebacon @TomiLahren

They serve. They do honorable work. The GOP would give them all the boot because they’re not white and European. It’s nativism and xenophobia and flat out racism. Trump’s immigration policy was drafted with white supremacists and bigots in mind, and they’re the strongest supporters of this.

They want to slow immigration to the lowest levels in nearly 100 years - and it’s no accident. It’s slamming the door on legal immigration shut. Both in total numbers and on percentage basis, the GOP is looking to eliminate immigration, especially when those immigrants are coming from non European nations, because how dare someone come to the US looking for a better life.
