Deep and wide is the reservoir of racism/hatred/xenophobia in the US. It is the source of all GOP success ultimately.

Your style is the reason why the Far Left is, was, and will always remain fringe in the US. Every utterance is a brick, every posture a challenge.

"Jose" starts his day picking strawberries at an organic farm. After picking he goes back to crush the strawberries that have fallen to the ground that are no longer usable. This prevents pest infestations and stops fungal diseases from spreading to the rest of the crop. #WeFeedYou
