In case you haven’t heard, Americans in favor of brown people being immigrants — that is, coming into the land of the free and home of the brave via its immigration system — are anti-brown-people-immigrants.
I haven’t quite been able to make sense of it yet, but that’s the word on the street.
And AOC’s chief of staff — Saikat Chakrabarti — is apparently no stranger to the street.
Therefore:
Whoa. @AOC’s chief just deleted this. pic.twitter.com/xRJphPAkwb

The tweet was in reference to H.R.3401 — the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations for Humanitarian Assistance and Security at the Southern Border Act. It “provides $4.5 billion in FY2019 emergency supplemental appropriations to federal departments and agencies for humanitarian assistance and security to respond to migrants attempting to enter the United States at the southern border.”
After deleting his post, Saikat tried to clarify:
Absolutely right. https://t.co/wS2gpKQMWo

It’s as if someone “kidnapped a bunch of children”??
Next, “concentration camps” (here, here, and here):
Can we stop calling the Blue Dog Caucus "fiscally conservative but socially liberal?" I missed the part of fiscal conservativeness or social liberalness that includes wasting $4.5 billion of taxpayer money to put kids in concentration camps.

Saikat uses the word “immigrants” here, but he clearly has no intention to mean immigrants (as described at the beginning of this article):

If you’re into border laws, you’re like the KKK:

This is in reference to my comparing Blue Dogs and New Democrats to 1940s Southern Democrats. Southern Democrats enabled a racist system too. I have no idea how personally racist they all were. And we're seeing the same dynamic play out now.
