2025-09-06 19:31:37 +0000 UTCIf I'm remembering correctly, the fact that many of the "Self Deportees" weee actually natural born citizens was part of what would actually lead to the founding of MS13. Anti-Immigrant Types are literally their worst enemy, creating new scarier problems to clutch perls at theough the power of being mind meltingly racist!
