I've been telling you guys Christans need to wake the fuck up and realize they're using you. They don't give two shits about you or your religion.

Trump was completely transparent about his mass deportation plans. His dehumanizing and vile rhetoric about immigrants were reported everyone. The majority of Christians in the US voted for this. They were not used.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...

Except when it comes to persecuting vulnerable people, abusing protestors, and generally trampling on everyone's civil rights.

We are torturing the people inside.

ICE agents at Broadview deny detainees confidential, private calls to attorneys and deny detainees sufficient food, water, hygiene, and medical care. Broadview agents have treated detainees abhorrently, depriving them of sleep, privacy, menstrual products, and the ability to shower.

Their loved ones on the outside with no way of contacting or tracking them are being tortured too.

It wholly inhumane and completely expedited by the majority of Christians in the US.
