(Mirror.)

Republicans aren't even trying to hide the fact that they're orchestrating an immigration crisis specifically to give Trump a platform. Trump spent the weekend lambasting the military spending bill, which is designed to sacrifice immigrant rights in exchange for aid to Ukraine's and [Zionism’s] wars. When asked why it was stopped just as bipartisan consensus was being reached, McConnell literally said "We don't want to do anything to undermine [Trump]," even though this deal benefits Republicans' entire pro-war, anti-immigrant platform.

This bill goes against everything NAA stands for, and we don't want to see it pass. But we also recognize that the Republicans are taking this short-term "loss" in the hopes of getting a long-term win (Trump in office). While this may seem absurd from the outside, they are willing to destroy everything they stand for just to get this man back into office.
