Laura Ingraham’s lily-white American dream

Laura Ingraham, speaking entirely in code, makes it clear how she feels about immigrants:

“The America we know and love doesn’t exist anymore. Massive demographic changes have been foisted on the American people, and they are changes that none of us ever voted for, and most of us don’t like … this is related to both illegal and legal immigration.”

Twitter responded to Ingraham’s White supremacy rant:

These words welcomed my great-grandparents to America. The America we know and love is Emma Lazarus’ vision not Laura Ingraham’s. pic.twitter.com/tRsOeCoe7D

"Laura Ingraham" . Blatant white nationalist racism on a major TV network. I am thinking it's about time all these racists nuts hear from all of us.

Nativists like Laura Ingraham hate immigrants from Latin America not because they are Latino–she would welcome immigrants from Spain–but because most descend from Aztecs, Mayans, Incas and other native peoples who came to the Americas thousands of years before the white man.

Laura Ingraham uses the phrase "massive demographic changes" as code for her racism; Jeff Sessions employs "religious freedom" to mask his homophobia. Laura and Jeff can both be called the polite euphemism "bigoted hate-spewing morons"

Just want to repeat: *Any* news article about Laura Ingraham should use as its main photo (except where layout requires just a small, basic headshot) this golden oldie from her speech at the 2016 Republican convention. pic.twitter.com/AF85QSYrk5

The vile thing about @IngrahamAngle is one day her non-white, adopted kids will ask her: “Why did you you say those awful things about us?

And she'll say, “To make money. That’s what Fox was paying me to say about brown-skinned trash. Ur, no offense. Now, give rich mommy a hug!”
