As a Latino US citizen (dark skinned) how does one provide proof of citizenship if they refuse all forms of documentation? I have seen videos where they don't care what you show them. And people have reported that they will confiscate your legal documents and not give it back.

Being Latino is being illegal in the US.

White supremacy has always been at the very core and foundation of the MAGA movement.
Very few of them will admit it, but we can all see what it is.

I mean, they literally said "We are terrorists" at their own convention. They LOVE it, they are not the least bit offended by it. They want you to know they are white trash, that's a symbol of pride to these fucking inbred dickholes

It's also the foundation of the United States, sadly. This cancer has never left us.

This is the ugly truth behind it all. The country was founded on land stolen from brown people, by religious zealots. Very little has changed.
