What does it say about our society when members of Congress and the media are being let in to gov’t run concentration camps full of dying children, the conditions not even being hidden, and we aren’t storming facilities in the hundreds of thousands to free them?

You know that feeling you get when someone is sobbing crocodile tears of apology after deliberately trying to hurt you but you know clear as day the reason they’re REALLY crying is because they got caught and BOY HOWDY they just realized there’s going to be consequences.
