Salazar, a daughter of Cuban exiles, urged the DHHS to give parole to those enrolled under the Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans humanitarian program (CHNV). Signed under former President Biden, President Trump suspended the program on his first day in office as part of his executive order. “Don’t penalize them for Biden’s screw-ups!” Salazar wrote on X, blaming Biden for the flaws of the CHNV program.

MAGA cultists can't admit to themselves that this would be happening the exact same way no matter what happened when Biden was in office or what laws existed when the orange turd took office.

Well of course, it's not like they're going to admit that each of them has a different right and wrong people

Let me guess, “he’s hurting the wrong people”.

Trump: "I'm going to go after YOU."

MAGA: "Not me though. He doesn't mean me."

I'm Lakota, I asked my Trumper Lakota aunt what she thought about losing her American citizenship because of trump, her reply was, "he's obviously talking about those 1/64th non federal white people pretending to be natives"

The delusion is strong. The delusion is powerful. The leopards can be actively devouring their faces and they'll be thanking Trump for the weight loss.

Over the next 4 years there's gonna be so much action on this sub

I hope it's only two years. 2026 Senate election looks to have 22 Republican seats up for grabs, and only 13 Democrat seats. Rooting for the pendulum to swing hard. Really hard. I want to see a non-Republican supermajority in both chambers overturn every goddamn thing that will have happened in the next two years and codify every progressive dream policy with indelible ink and a veto-proof majority. I doubt that will happen, but let me dream.

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 29 points 3 weeks ago

Imma dream with you.

[–] DredPyr8Roberts@lemmy.world 24 points 3 weeks ago

I doubt there will be meaningful elections in two years, but we can hope.

[–] CMLVI@lemmy.world 17 points 3 weeks ago

I wouldn't put $2 on this happening, but I'm dreaming with you.

Might wanna start prepping, María, for your one-way to Cuba. I’d expect ICE to seize all of your assets to pay for the trip. Have fun!

The irony of these Cubans getting deported after supporting Republicans for decades due to the bullshit propaganda that Democrats are "socialists".

Got their shit seized and booted from Cuba, only to be stupid enough to directly support the people in America that go an do the same fucking thing to you again. Well done.

[–] darvocet@infosec.pub 10 points 3 weeks ago

You love to see it.

Right!? Refugees from fascist countries should be the most capable of recognizing and rejecting fascism. But instead they are susceptible. It's baffling.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 26 points 3 weeks ago

Propaganda works. Almost every time. And only in the direction of blaming someone for something.

It's possible we should, y'know, try to address that. Somehow.

My day is brightened just a bit by her suffering 💕

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Careful there, as sweet as it may be, let's not become the same as those fucks "loving all the liberal tears!"

[–] ImminentOrbit@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

No, this is very, very different. This is getting exactly what you voted for and then crying about it

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

Alright, I'll allow it, but just be careful out there.
