  1. He made some valid points. They (ICE/Border Patrol) are just enforcing the immigration laws Congress enacted. I mean, what good is democracy’s laws you created if you don’t care if they are enforced? Murphy, Hines?

    I would have to say if you don’t like or find disagreement with policies, change them in that demcoracy held in Congress. Protest them. Anything else is Disingenuous.

    Speaking of Disingenuous, I see Gen Now is courting the Black community via the Interfaith Prayer Breakfast, and the White Community by courting an ICE OUT protest by extension, Latinos.

    I said it once, and I’ll say it again, Port’s carpet bagger political organization, Taste The Movement, Breath of Fresh Air, Big Daddy money is the most “disingenuous” political group in the Port. 🤣
