Until they wake up and embrace the progressive movement championed by Bernie and AOC, I have little hope for the mainstream democratic party
We do not have a left wing and right wing in the US. We have a center-right party, the Democrats; and we have the republicans. Any actual left wing ideas are crushed by the billionaires that own the country

A (white) Canadian friend of ours was deported back to BC and barred from entry for 5yr because she overstayed her tourist visa. This article said he was detained Sunday evening and released by 11pm, which is like 6 hours tops- I’ve heard of people staying 8+ hours.
