Fun facts for the afflicted.
Illegals are emphatically not eligible for our safety net. Legals aren’t even eligible until they’ve been residing legally for a number of years.
Mixed status families receive benefits.....on account of the fact that an American citizen is in their care, but by the nature of their mixed status they receive less, costing those programs less.
Of that cost, immigrants pay in more to those programs than they recieve.
Concern trolling over costs is pointless, these facts will not change the mind of the anti-immigrant set because their opinions aren’t based on facts in the first place. Nor frankly, will reminding them that benefits go to citizen children. They prefer to think of them as anchor babies instead of their fellow Americans.
The new cruelty isn’t a bug, it’s a feature. It’s the only thing promised and accomplished, and entirely what the right wing nutballs have in mind when they say “trump did what he said d he would”. That was the part that people voted for, it’s what they wanted, that’s what they were listening to. The re-election bid is going full gestapo because they know that’s what the set wants and they know that this set lives in a fact free world of brown takers who must be punished for having the gall to believe the things we USians say about ourselves and our country.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
