where it’s windy on a winter’s day – Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm
A poem in Vietnamese by Đinh Thị Như Thúy
Translator: Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm

I’ve not told you when I’ll leave.
Perhaps it should be left unsaid.
Perhaps it will be a day far away.
Perhaps it will be soon.
I want to safeguard this for myself.
Like the few secrets, I’ve saved.
*
Sometimes there are all these questions.
Is the end scarier?
Or scarier is the way there?
Sometimes I’m overwhelmed by such uncertainty.
About the days long gone.

Open Thread | Immigration: The White Supremacist Fear Mongering Issue That the GOP Will Never Give Up | 3CHICSPOLITICO

Fear mongering of the Others. Those ‘ others’ are invading the country. A White Supremacist trope long used by the GOP.
Never forget – George W. Bush was able to lie us into TWO wars.
But, he couldn’t pass genuine, sincere Immigration reform.
Republicans don’t want Immigration reform. Because running on the racism of anti-immigration is all that they have left in their arsenal.
…So, I want you to get clear. Because, a resolution at the border would take that issue off the table for the GOP in November. And, if they don’t have the brown hoards at the Southern border on the verge of invasion, what else do they have to run on?
Time and time again, the Republican Party is showing you who they are. They are shirking their duties as elected officials to do the bidding of this Orange Criminal.

It’s only blowing up because actual elected officials are REFUSING TO DO THEIR JOBS AND SERVE THIS COUNTRY.
