I'm not explaining myself. Judge me on my behaviour. "We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented." — Elie Wiesel, Nobel Acceptance Speech, Oslo, December 10, 1986

Time to do your actual jobs and start interrogating him on his Brexit shitshow, his funding, his Trumpiness, his idiotic manifesto, his real plans for the NHS… instead of drumrolling him into No.10

Every "yes" Trump gets speeds him up to both keep revictimizing his target and moving onto others. Tell him no. Waste his time. Make him fight. Drag it out. And the more people who say no, the more resources he has to expend. He is not unlimited in time and energy. Waste his.

I worry that the intense focus on one person who was illegally renditioned to El Salvador, Mr. Abrego Garcia, obscures the hundreds of others who were also deported. Many of them had pending cases in immigration court, which makes their deportations also illegal.
