I feel just like I did during the war against Iraq

That mix of fury and helplessness knowing that our government has committed crimes and will never answer for them. Trump and his minions have kidnapped thousands of kids, many of whom will not be reunited with their parents, and there's no repercussion. Just like the war criminals Bush, Cheney et al. There will be no justice.

Thousands and thousands of innocent people have been killed/injured and traumatized. Whether it happens here or on foreign soil, it's still our govt committing crimes in our name without punishment. And yes, i want punishment.
