Some of my neighbors who despised Trump made posters with their young kids to free the “kids in cages” and hung them in their window as a sign of solidarity against Trump. Recall the photo of the dad being separated from his daughter - that was totally fake? They jumped on that bandwagon SO quickly and cried crocodile tears. Any attempt to inform them of this piece of fake news, or of course that the origin of the cages came from Obama (recall also those photos circulating of kids in cages that turns out was taken under Obama too - whoops!). Press and media said NOTHING at the time. Once Biden was in office and the border crossings exploded - including massive amounts of unaccompanied minors - I heard not ONE PEEP from these same people. And this was during Covid as well - when anyone not following lock down protocols was berated and singled out on Nextdoor. Apparently nothing at the border mattered one bit so long as it was Biden and not Trump as President.

Hypocrisy, thy name is Democrat. Jo, we did not want to leave the dream house we built in West Linn in 1988. It hurt and wished we could move the house to a location where the neighbors are sane. The pain is gone now because 1) we LOVE living where most people are "conservative," a breath of fresh air; and 2) West Linn, Portland, et al have declined HUGELY since we escaped. These last few days I have been researching what the Marxists in West Linn are doing to destroy that beautiful burb. I could not have dreamed this up! I will post it tomorrow. Diane
