    “Thank you, Republican voters. Now, we understand.
    If you're using undocumented people's tax records to find them and kidnap them, then it was never about them not paying taxes.
    If you're showing up at their place of employment, then it was never about them not working.
    If you're showing up at courthouses, it was never about getting them to do it the right way.
    If you're kidnapping women and children, it was never about criminals.
    If you're not giving them due process, it was never about the Constitution.
    And if you're spending billions of dollars to do it, it was never about the economy.
    And if you're doing all of this in the name of a 34-time convicted felon, then it was never about following the law.”
    Frank Monachello

    And if you're now demanding Medicaid and SNAP rolls; programs which the undocumented are de jure ineligible for, then your next victims will be American citizens.

    Plane Wreck at Los Gatos
    (also known as "Deportee")
    Words by Woody Guthrie, Music by Martin Hoffman
    Contact Publisher - TRO-Essex Music Group

    The crops are all in and the peaches are rott'ning,
    The oranges piled in their creosote dumps;
    They're flying 'em back to the Mexican border
    To pay all their money to wade back again

    Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye, Rosalita,
    Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria;
    You won't have your names when you ride the big airplane,
    All they will call you will be "deportees"

    My father's own father, he waded that river,
    They took all the money he made in his life;
    My brothers and sisters come working the fruit trees,
    And they rode the truck till they took down and died.

    Some of us are illegal, and some are not wanted,
    Our work contract's out and we have to move on;
    Six hundred miles to that Mexican border,
    They chase us like outlaws, like rustlers, like thieves.

    We died in your hills, we died in your deserts,
    We died in your valleys and died on your plains.
    We died 'neath your trees and we died in your bushes,
    Both sides of the river, we died just the same.

    The sky plane caught fire over Los Gatos Canyon,
    A fireball of lightning, and shook all our hills,
    Who are all these friends, all scattered like dry leaves?
    The radio says, "They are just deportees"

    Is this the best way we can grow our big orchards?
    Is this the best way we can grow our good fruit?
    To fall like dry leaves to rot on my topsoil
    And be called by no name except "deportees"?​

    Testing their DNA is the most accurate way to determine how they vote, and thanking them is unnecessary.

    Follow the money!
    Where is that 160 billion going?
    Trump supporters and family too via stocks and Trump coins. No way to trace the payoffs...or is there?

    That is such a sad song and so true today! Have they learned nothing? What year did Woody write that song? 40s? 50s?

    When they censor half of reality, unless you want money, there's no point in following the money, which can bite you in the ass!

    I used to sing this song at UFW rallies and meetings. Got to perform it for Dolores Huerta once... a great person.
    The whole world watches how the USA treets people, and thereby judges whether our high-sounding talk about freedom and greatness are just hot air or not.

    The whole world listens to Wall Street, who demand the right to censor half of reality, but the Chinese and the technology itself are making that impossible. All the AI are hallucinating and so are all the mathematicians writing new theories of everything, because reality doesn't agree with Wall Street or the Commies. As usual, our glorious leaders are determined to shoot themselves in the foot, along with each other. The machines are already up to picosecond speeds and using neuromorphic architectures, can do the pattern matching to make Wall Street obsolete.

    They have the hardware, while I write the software that makes it even more efficient, and unbeatable. The only reason anyone has ever had anything like democracy, is because the truth turns out to be unbeatable in the long run. Wall Street will have to confront the truth, that sharing their words and playing nice, is the only way to beat the Chinese. Their economy is already seven trillion dollars larger and, with a censored internet, can beat Wall Street at their own game.
