8:17am  Good morning y'all. Going back to your point on immigrants and political affiliation, as an Arab-American I've had plenty of conversations with people in the Middle Eastern community who were Bush voters at the height of the Iraq "war". Or more recently, they've supported Trump. It makes me want to pull my hair out. -Malcolm

8:29am Hi, my family is mostly from Ohio (half white and half Mexican). Part of the reason that messaging works is that there are actually a lot of Latinos in Ohio. My White racist cousin works at a warehouse where there was an ICE raid on the job. That type of stuff happens all the time because our borders are militarized, ice is allowed to be active because Ohio is within the 100 miles (or whatever the number in) from A border, Canadian Border. So ice is super active in the state. - Cam
