White Supremicist Terrorism

I continue to be overwhelmed by the fire hose of bad news that spews from this corrupt administration and the efforts of foreign assets within our own government, like #MoscowMitch, who continue to block efforts to make change in government, or to even have a vote on it, so that the voters can see where their elected representatives stand.
Here is the thing though.  You reap what you sew.  When the administration is run by a misogynistic, xenophobic white nationalist who constantly spews hate speech meant to incite violence, why is anyone surprised when that happens?  The characterization of Central Americans as being beneath human, caging them, separating children from their families, allowing sexual abuse of minors on a scale that I do not remember in my lifetime, it matters not that he denies that is what he meant. 
And there is another thing: our border with Mexico is one that we made through war.  It is an artificial border of our own creation, with the people born above it being here entirely legally, going back to before the Civil War.  It is has been more theirs than ours for centuries, and yet this hate and violence spewing from White Supremacists continues unabated and even encouraged from the highest reaches of government.  It is patriotic to question government when it breaks the laws of man and god.  There is evil afoot and it must be called out.
