Remember how we had kids in cages a few months into trump's first term social-democracy and noone talked about how those "temporary holding facilities" were an Obama era policy? Or how we stopped talking about them as soon as Biden came in? why-angel even though deportations increased under him?

I think Biden reversed the policy of separating kids from parents, which is a perfect encapsulation of the "pulling the knife halfway out" method of solving the problem Malcom X talked about.
