'Sadistic Pigs 'R Us'

"With woefully little press, America's Dark Overlord and his racist thugs have launched 'enhanced targeted operations' in Chicago and elsewhere, resolutely sweeping up terrified, mostly law-abiding brown people, some Native, in the dubious name of 'public safety and national security.' But because even vicious cartoon thug Tom Homan can't keep up, now they have arrest quotas and groupies to boost their barbarous image. Meanwhile, egg prices are at record highs. Produce soon will be."

"Where to begin. Billy Roach: Facts owe. The fact is, the moral, legal, vengeful, scapegoating debacle of 'Operation Safeguard' is based on the utter fiction of a 'migrant crime wave,' also maybe the hallucinatory fact it's been unleashed by a mad dumb king who doesn't know 'political asylum' and 'insane asylum' are different things. Really. The Orange Codger claims crime has 'gone through the roof' and is 'up like 40%,' reiterating a racist, years-long mantra that largely Hispanic countries are 'not sending their best,' hence our resulting hordes of rapists, murderers, drug-dealers, and gangs 'bringing devastating crime to U.S. soil.' Except NOT. Fact: Crime, including violent crime, is sharply down nationwide. Over 22 cities have seen record lows in homicide rates, with up to 40% declines including in New York, one of the safest big cities despite sensational claims otherwise, and DC, with the lowest rate in 30 years. The only crime that's up, slightly, is shoplifting."
