Rules:

The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.) Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

Texas Hispanics swung hard to Trump. A new poll shows they’re furious at his deportations (www.politico.com)

It's Christianity. A ton of immigrant Hispanics are extremely Christian and Republicans are historically the Christian party

i was gonna say that he can't even quote one verse from the bible but that tracks with the average christian., or at least conservatives. I'm not christian but i can cite multiple verses from the bible that i could reasonably say i like for one reason or another.

I've found that Matthew 6:5-8 is annoying to especially loud christians.

Well they are. They're just focused on those parts that are a bit less popular amongst 'progressive christians' such as hating the abortioners, the gays & the women

Good Catholic families, a lot of which are probably older and more established than the states they reside in.

I kind of half think there was a portion of Republicans that really believed that there were 100 illegal immigrants just going absolutely ham on the place and that was somehow the only real issue we had going on.

Jokes on us I guess.
