        The attacks today on my wife are repulsive. Everyone tweeting this vicious conspiracy theory should be ashamed of themselves. We weren’t even familiar with the hateful symbol being attributed to her for the random way she rested her hand during a long hearing. 1/3

        She works with Stephen Miller creating immigration policy targeting Mexicans and Muslims and stripping children away from parents to put them in cages. You can be a white supremacist and be of Jewish/Mexican descent, @lachlan. Just like you can be a misogynist and be a woman.

        Absolutely. It's also entirely possible that she and Stephen concocted this little on-camera schtick just to own the libs. You don't get that seat behind the nominee by chance. I put nothing past any of them. Look where they work, who they work for, and what they do for a living.

        These MAGA, xenophobic, white power types actually do get a huge kick out of liberals getting exercised about stunts like this. Wouldn't be at all surprised if it was just a stunt so they could laugh at "owning the libs" as we get distracted from the substance of the hearings.

        That's not too different from Stephen Miller's background. No proof she's racist, but not really a defense from being one either

        maybe we could give the woman of Mexican and Polish-Jewish ancestry the benefit of the doubt and not read Naziism into her posture?

        What race are these illegal immigrants.? Have you ever been south of the border? There are millions of white people also living throughout the Southern countries. Unless they spoke to you, you wouldn't know what country they are from. Stop with these racism accusations.

        Important to realize that people can belong to minority groups but be biased quite strongly against other minority groups. There’s lots of research on this phenomenon.https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2017/04/19/524571669/model-minority-myth-again-used-as-a-racial-wedge-between-asians-and-blacks …

        In addition people can be biased against those they share ethnicity with as a reaction to the biased society.https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2017/03/08/519010491/why-mixed-race-americans-will-not-save-the-country …

        There is a strong case made against climate change. It has to do with the Chinese using it to become economically superior to the USA. Look into it interesting stuff. Also it hasn’t been scientifically proven so of course there will be skeptics just like you have with religion.
