i've been watching Nancy Pelosi read the stories of DACA recipients. Many of these stories have brought me to tears. I cannot even last as long as she did sitting on my recliner and being able to push pause, use the restroom, run errands. I've jumped up the replay a couple times.

What is Ryan's rationale for refusing to do something about DACA? If nothing else, Pelosi has made the case that these Americans have earned and deserve the chance to be Americans.

oh, and I hate republicans. they suck.

you can browse through the over 8 hours of stories "for the record"
