Genocide in Gaza
Hitler murdered 6 million Jewish people during World War II. The world expressed shock and disbelief when the atrocities committed in the concentration camps were discovered. Jewish people were killed in mass shooting operations, through deliberate privation of food and water, through brutal treatment and the gas chambers.
Compare the plight of the Jewish people then to the plight of the people in Gaza today.

Attacks on Freedom

At best he was misleading the American public.
Last week, 600,000 Venezuelan refugees with proper background checks and vetting by the Department of Immigration (DPI) had their Temporary Protective Status (TPS) classification cancelled. 271,000 Ukrainians were background checked and vetted by DPI and welcomed into ...
