“Republican voters are in favor of hurting the out-group. They are in favor of cruelty. They want conspiratorial thinking. They have a preference for corruption. They are in favor of these traits even if it means losing elections. That’s the dogma.” open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

God already built a wall through Big Bend — it's called the Chisos Mountains. We don't need to give billions of our tax dollars to out of state vendors. We don't need to desecrate this sacred land. We don't need this useless, disgraceful, corrupt Big Bend border wall.
