This is the thing I’ve never understood. If we were truly concerned about undocumented workers taking jobs and resources, the logical solution would be to go after the companies employing them. But we’re not concerned with that. It’s always just a bad faith argument that boils down to plain old racism.

Tim waltz seems like a good pick. Seems to have a bit of the Bernie, no-bullshit, authenticity that plays well with independents.

She’s done far more good than bad. This kind of purity testing is why the left in this country is so weak.

Calling people “illegal” is dehumanizing. The fact that this is what outrages you in this story kind of says it all.
