Imo, the U.S. is a terrorist state that murders it’s own citizens & immigrants exercising their 1st amend. rights, in cold blood! The U.S. is operating gulags in which people are detained w/o due process. So, I doubt there is any “caravan” of human beings trying to illegally enter this country.

#WAKEUP If, and when, trump regime’s illegal war of choice against Iran ends, and a Dem administration takes control, we may finally learn the full truth of American casualties. And I think that there should be hearings and charges and jail for the ill use of our military service members!

What has not changed is the price Palestinian journalists paid for doing the job Israel would not let anyone else do. Hundreds of local journalists have been killed, more than in all wars combined since Vietnam. Three died together in January 2026, after the “ceasefire,” documenting a genocide.
