    “Under the proposal, individuals could also be removed from the U.S. if they engage in or have ever engaged in advocacy for those ideologies, or if they “write, distribute, circulate, print, display, possess, or publish” material supporting them.”

    Someone want to re-phrase the 1st amendment for him using really small words?

        While it is bad here, it’s not like we’re the only people with a growing fascist problem. Just like obesity and people giving us shit for decades, all of a sudden more countries are having some of these problems.

        Keep giving us shit, sure. But just don’t forget to learn from us and shut that shit down while you still can.

    Because nothing is more American than having the government regulate thought.

    I’m no longer sure if the above sentiment should be interpreted sarcastically or not.

        Ever try hot apple pie with a slice of cheese?

        It tastes like apple pie with cheese. I still don’t get why it’s a thing.

            Oh sure, with goat cheese, Gouda, or gruyere, I could totally see magic happening. But that’s not what people serve. They serve a cheese single, plastered on some shitty crust.

      As someone who has personally benefitted from actions of Chip Roy, I couldn’t agree more. My anecdotes will never outweigh the damage he’s done to countless people.

      Also, just cuz an asshole accidentally helps you doesn’t make them not an asshole.
