  • Published on Apr 18, 2026

      You realize that more people voted FOR mass deportations than against, right? And since the election, the Dems have lost 2.1 Million voters, while the GOP has gained 2.5 Million voters. The Loony Left are the fascists, trying to impose their minority thuggery on the rest of us by intimidation and mass chaos in the big cities. Shame on all of you thugs! #DeportThemAll #MASSDEPORTATIONSNOW And I can't wait to see Obama, Biden, and Hillary all indicted for the treason they seem to have committed! ruclips.net/video/ADcq3WOT_Sw/video.html

      @rafaelnunez6198 a far-right, authoritarian political ideology characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition, and strong regimentation of society and the economy. It is built on extreme nationalism, often prioritizing the nation or a specific race above the individual, and is frequently led by a single charismatic dictator. Other core principles include the use of propaganda, control of the media, and a belief in the superiority of one group, which can lead to the dehumanization of others.

It's so noticeable and btw just so you know i'm not against you, i'm against people who get rid of freedom and well imprisoning people wrongfully and arresting the kids and old people is messed up. But hey i just hope you listen and remember that trump said "maybe we'd like a dictator" lovely isn't that? So much freedom!!!! 😭 like wowie.

    • @MeirionaSaga
      @MeirionaSaga 6 months ago

      @adrianagaleanovargas9743 I think it's sick to use children as human shields from law enforcement while committing violent crimes. I think it's sick to think it's okay to just flood over our borders b/c we had a demented president in Biden. You keep condemning law enforcement in a nation of laws. That's sick, too. The revisionist woke lies about our history don't help b/c they brainwashed a generation in the school systems, and that's also sick. We need to get our country back. This chaos is foreign and being expelled, regardless of their attempts to shoot and ram federal officers b/c the Left has whipped them into a frenzy with violent rhetoric. That's beyond sick.
      If people care about their kids so much and they're illegal aliens, the responsible thing to do to keep their own children out of risk is to take the money offered and self-deport. Your excuses are like a four year old.
      CHILD: But I did wash my hands!
      PARENT: Did you use soap?
      ILLEGALS: But I did cross the border!
      THE LAW: Did you do enter legally/or use your visa properly? *As in NOT overstay which is a crime, etc.?
      And the longer an illegal alien is here, the worse it is, not better. That is not a justification to stay! That means someone was breaking the law year after year to work illegally. Most developed countries enforce fines and punish people before deportation. We have fines, too, daily fines that have long been ignored. So staying here for 25 years can mean tens of thousands of dollars in fines or more. And remember, ignorance is no excuse under American law. WOMP-womp. GTFO

      They are creating authoritarianism not fighting it. Just like Obama literally used ICE to deport a RECORD number of illegal residents, over 80% of which were deported without due process. None of the democrats pretended to care back then because they knew a country needs to enforce immigration law.
