Illegal immigration, according to government statistics, has declined by half since 2000, but our corrupt, minority-elected president is waging war on human reason.

He has polarized people so much that his supporters eagerly march to his hateful ranting. Instead of Mexico, U.S. taxpayers will fund the wall, thanks to a billionaire who has added $2 trillion to the national debt in two years because of his windfall tax cuts for the rich.

We can begin to push back by diversifying our sources of information and thinking for ourselves, instead of buying into relentless propaganda that dehumanizes our fellow citizens, neighbors and immigrants.
