BREAKING NEWS! This Just In!

"Republicans are shocked at any one at any time being detained indefinitely after intentionally empowering and assembling a large militant force who operates purely extrajudicially without due process. We've got Tom live on the scene to ask one of them about this development, Tom?"

"Tell the camera what you just told me a moment ago, please."

"Well I don't think that's what due process means, they still go to see an immigration court, don't they?"

"No."

"Well, they should."

"Maybe you should vote for somebody who makes that happen."

"Like Donald Trump?"

"Wrong again."

I am in constant awe of how these people are incapable of pointing the finger towards the issue here.

I am aware that maga is a cult, but we have reached the point where Trump and the Republicans are openly, brazenly committing acts that their own supporters disagree with. How much more obvious does the situation need to become before people start placing the blame where it belongs?

Just as bad, a lot of people on both sides are pointing the finger at Democrats.

It won't be obvious ever to these people, because their reality is only what they and their associates see in FOX News. That they don't get concerned by what is happening is because they never hear or see what is happening.
