I agree, we need to stop using their buzz words and counter with something else, just like Angela said, “Big Billionaire Bill” and detention centers are “Concentration Camps”, call it what it is!

Trump’s Concentration Camps, or Republican Concentration Camps….? He/they have to own their “Brand”.

What in this world? These are cruel additions to the CR. Shoot the bill down. And in Project 2026: VOTE’M OUT! A new placard for your use, free.

This is all cruel, inhumane, and who authored this? They need to read a book titled "Everything I Learned in Life, I Leaned in Kindergarten."

In other words, take this BS, shred it, and start over, putting yourself in the position of someone trying to come to the greatest nation in the world (before Trump destroyed it), and write logical, loving, noteworthy things. Not rubbish! Not cruelty! Not requiring unspeakable sums of money for every little thing!

So, raise the fees for those seeking entry then sending trillions of dollars to those who will deport those seeking entry. It’s sickening. This entire section makes me queasy.

I have been enjoying your series on Project 2025. I plan on doing my own analysis in the future. Right now, I’m analyzing the constitution. Setting a background to refer to.

I’m hoping to hop back on the P2025 wagon when I finish this one up. Thanks for reading!

Keep going when you’re ready to. I can only imagine how hard it is. To have to dive into the twisted minds of the racist bigoted people who wrote Project 2025…I applaud you for doing it. It’s a real service to the USA.

I’ll find out for myself in the future when I do it. Like I said, I plan on tackling P2025 after I explain people what their rights are. Give myself a background to analyze with. In fact, I’d love to see what you think of my series.

Looks like a big bold cash grab. Take from the poorest and the most vulnerable. This is what human trafficking looks like. This will make the U.S. government the biggest most powerful coyote ring in the world and all to give it to the billionaire donors.

Utterly shameful in its shamelessness.

At a (un) reasonable & (un) affordable fee or fees. I’m surprised they didn’t include a carve-out for waiver of fees for Caucasians from South Africa ….

So, this is his plan for immigration. Squeeze 5 million dollars out of each immigrant just to enter?

Not one family is more important than another. We are all the same. No matter what side of the fence you were born on. All barriers need to be taken down so we can progress humanity. That border shouldn’t even exist. Different languages shouldn’t exist. Different cultures yes of curse we need some differences but differences that will make us better not scared of each other. Let’s face it we don’t like it when people speak a language next to us that we don’t understand. We get defensive and we assume the conversation is about us. Ass u me

Thank you for letting me share i hope it makes sense.

Are they deporting everyone so they can get these new fees when they come back? That and I know they want to keep them out unless they have money.
