8. When I was growing up, because of my Dad's job we moved several times within the state

And that was traumatic enough for me as a young kid in school. I realize now I was lucky.

Call them what they are. Internment Camps.

9. NO ONE...

... is addressing the root cause of the mass exodus from Central American countries: "Jelly Bean" Reagan's unspeakably evil death squads.
Before the sonofabitch was even president, he made a deal with Iran to sell them weapons if they delayed the release of the hostages. TOTALLY illegal, but no one called him on it.
Like the weasel he has always been, after fucking over Carter, he used those illegal funds to equip and train the murderous thugs that tore apart Central America, and left it in ruins right up to this very minute.
Desperate people have always sought to escape countries where economic pressure from American corporations that wanted to steal resources, gutted their governments, and then sicced the US government on them when they refused to bend the knee.
Reagan was a soulless monster, as were the psychotic sycophants that enabled, and then covered up, his endless list of atrocities.
Now we're experiencing the denouement of those transgressions, and, in typical form, blaming the victims of Republican perfidy.
Sooner or later, we'll have to admit that YOU CANNOT REASON WITH PSYCHOPATHS! And we don't "meet them in the middle" after horrific crimes have been committed. Like now.
Filth like Miller, Homan, Noem, ad nauseam, have to be taken down, if not out, before any healing can begin. Then Trump can be drawn and quartered. Figuratively speaking, of course. Heh, heh, heh.
