In a shocker to absolutely no one, republicans prioritize hate and profits over anything they claim to actually care about.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I think this latest step in a series of equally horrifying steps fully supports the things ~~republicans~~ fascists care about.
Because obviously it's all immigrants' fault. They're all either drug dealers or child abusers. So getting rid of them will solve the problems.
Oh wait, that would be the USA government - child rapists and drug dealer pardoners.
I guess we need to get rid of the USA government.
Drug dealers eh? Whether true or not I'll just put this here as a take by the American Prospect also judging by how high little Marco was in that press meeting a week or so ago, I'd at least say drug abusers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iS7e8SpFQs0
Wow what an article.
I haven't seen Rubio talk very much, but if I met someone acting like that I would be certain they were on coke or speed. The confidence makes me think cocaine though.
Child exploration is what Republicans do best - see the Epstein Files, what aren't redacted -so why would they even want to prioritize that?
That's a hell of a typo there...
ICE must be abolished by any means, they are and have always been imperial kidnappers.
“Democrats allege”?
Fucking Guardian. The best we’ve got.
It has been known as the Grauniad for quite some time
The latter is profitable to the GOP; the former entertains them. They're never gonna go against either in earnest. They're just gonna go after poor people. That's what they do. This is what people voted for (or refused to vote against). Our best hope is that people learn and vote better next time. It may have to get worse before it gets better.
These are the people who took their food stamps because they couldn't take their healthcare fast enough. They took that anyway. But some of them will still vote red because they hate brown people and LGBTQ+ people more than the GOP hurts them.
Uh no, your only hope is not to “hope people vote better.” There are lots of things you can do. That you must do. You will not vote your way out of this.
It's horrifying, as anything coming out of the USA these days.
We can demand whatever we want from Republicans and we can only be sure of one thing. IF they respond, it will be with lies.
Why would the pedophiles want to investigate themselves? If they aren't pedos thmselves, they protect pedos.
Every fucking one of them are complicit.
US abandons child exploitation
Had me in the first half
