In the 2024 campaign, the actual estimate of undocumented people in the US, ~11M, was asserted as 25-30M by FOTUS. Eliminating due process to round up & ship out millions of innocent people, citizens or not, to miserable fates, is how they try to fulfill the lie they told to justify the act.

I also want to be clear on this point: History also shows that the Liberals were very willing to throw away the Left as sacrificial meat to the fascist, in the hopes it would protect the liberals. It did not, in fact, protect the liberals. So if liberals wants to beat fascism, they need the left
