Because he's dead
The song Hotel California comes to mind here.
I can't even.....WTF
The delegation will not be allowed to see him or take his body back. Because no matter this guy’s status, it’s in the best interest of many that he never be seen again.
But the politicians going there will make pretty speeches which will have zero insight about how to stop others from meeting the same fate.
Perhaps those in congress, while making regular trips back and forth to help him and others, can be supported by public contributions, or even help for their campaigns later? Not that they would ask, of course. But others have, I have seen it.
All the politicians making a profit from this should give a percentage to his family, it’s only fair
Are you trying to sell this hopelessness?
The road to fascism is lined with people telling you to stop overreacting.
It's also lined with people on social media telling you resistance is futile and that nothing anyone does matters.
Y'all aren't getting it.
That's not discouraging, it's radicalizing. We must be realistic and demand the impossible. There is no other way.
Well, its no fairy tale with a happy ending. Unless you are selling happy endings ? My way is more honest
