    This shows exactly what we all knew already: this isn’t about legal vs illegal immigration, and it isn’t about the economic impact of illegal immigration. This is about hurting brown people.

    They are spending taxpayer money to keep someone in detention when he wants to leave the country. They are preventing someone from doing what they ask people to do. They spend millions of dollars to put out TV commercials telling people to self-deport “or else.”

    When someone tries to do that, they lock him up. They just want to hurt brown people.
