As Trump demonizes cities, remember this: Residents of "blue" states send more tax money to Washington than they get back in federal help, while residents of “red” states send less money to Washington than they get back in federal help. Just thought I should point that out.

More than 500 U.S. citizens have been detained by ICE, according to ProPublica. 70% of ICE detainees have no criminal conviction. Trump’s promise to go after the “worst of the worst” was always a lie. It was always a pretext to terrorize Black and brown communities. Remember this.
