Don’t believe the lies. Trump is *not* selling $2.8 billion of bombs for Israel’s genocide.

It’s worse.

Trump is *giving away* $2.8 billion of bombs for Israel’s genocide. American taxpayers are paying for those bombs.

Apparently people are sharing this far and wide on social media, which I think is horrible. This could cripple ICE operations. PLEASE do not share this.

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.
The Diarrhea Lettuce Company Has Been Linked to Forced Labor
The lettuce-producing Taylor Farms was linked to the widespread use of prison labor before its involvement in a cyclospora outbreak.

Marco Rubio is against birthright citizenship.

But Marco Rubio *is* a birthright citizen.

Ted Cruz is against birthright citizenship.

But Ted Cruz was born in Canada. He only got US citizenship by a birthright citizenship law because of his US mother.

They are both shameless hypocrites.
