Kudos (again) to Rude Pundit

Another one, out of the park:

http://rudepundit.blogspot.com/2018/06/a-maga-guide-to-understanding-why.html

"Let us say, and why not, that you are MAGA hat-sporting, AR-15-toting, illegal immigrant-hating regular ol' supporter of President Donald J. Trump....

You approach the border and customs enforcement officers [in Russia, where you have immigrated for asylum after Pelosi becomes President in this hypothetical vignette] and say, in the clearest Russian you can manage, that you are requesting asylum for you and your family from the violent liberal dictatorship in the United States. And, for just a moment, you breathe easy until the second that you are taken by soldiers and your children are ripped away from you as you and MAGA wife have your hands zip-tied behind your back, your children's screaming echoing in your ears. "Don't worry," an official tells you through a harried translator, "they will be taken care of in special facility. But you chose to come here illegally and you are under arrest. Your children are not, but you cannot have them in detention, where you will have to stay until your asylum hearing." You try to explain that you thought you were allowed to ask for asylum and be treated differently, but by then the translator has moved on to say the same thing to the next MAGA couple whose MAGA kids are now in the custody of Russian health and human services.

You are fucking freaking out. Your baby is barely a year old. Your three year-old and five year-old will be scarred for life. You had no good fucking choices. Why can't someone understand you need some basic humanity here? But no one will listen. No one will give you a chance.

Listen to me, you backwards ass cretins everywhere, from Bumfuck, South Carolina, to Naziscum, Idaho, to Topeka, Kansas: this is what's happening. This is what the US is doing now. And you can pretend like it doesn't matter because it's just a bunch of filthy spics or whatever you need to believe to not care. But this shit is a tragedy, as you would think it was if it happened to you.

And if you can't see past your prejudices, past your hatred, past your ignorance, on this one blatant thing, then you are the animals."

I think I'll throw a couple of bucks his way, just to keep the uninterrupted rudeness coming our way.

That whole detestable and UN-Christian (ANTI-Christian, if you ask this Catholic) travesty winds up being high up on the list of our "asks" in our Indivisible "Call to Action" emails that go out to our local group's membership every week. The "asks" are the issues about which we call and nag our Senators and our Congressman.
