USBP and immigrants call them “coyotes.” It’s a long-established term to describe illegal smugglers.
Imagine calling the immigrant parents that bring their children to the United States for a better life “Coyotes” The level of xenophobia is sickening.

An attorney/congressman/supposed smart person doesn’t know what a coyote is and thinks the president just said a small dog carries kids across the border. Can someone animate this for me cause what I’m visualizing is hilarious.
Did @realDonaldTrump just say 545 kids they can't find their parents for came over through "cartels and coyotes"?! How the hell does a coyote bring a whole human across the border?! Lord-----stop talking. #FinalDebate

Obama... A man with no history, no provable past, no resume; with a complicit press refusing to investigate anything about him, was elected to the Presidency of the US! Now, a doddering old fool with criminal intent is their flag bearer? Is this a bad movie?

One guy gave up millions to be your President. The other guy made millions after being Vice President. 🧐🤔

Yes, pain is highly political. Moralists and bigots are always too eager to step up and tell us all whose pain is important and whose pain doesn’t matter. The results are disastrous, as Dr. Lewis points out:
The chaos that has emerged with the promulgation of politicization of pain care has simply increased overdoses, patient abandonment, and, suicides in our 50 STATES OF PAIN.

Prescribe opioids, go to jail. Or at least have your career & life destroyed before they drop the investigation because you were never doing anything wrong in the first place. DEA motto: "Hang em high, boys". #SuboxoneAgenda #OpioidHysteria nationalpainreport.com/dea-a…

Umm, MDs have an ethical & legal duty to know the potency of meds they prescribe. And I don’t know any MDs who consider drug reps to be a credible source of pharm knowledge. MANY sources consider oxycodone no more potent than morphine, just more bioavailable when taken orally.🙄

Yes, yes, we know. Those w/ substance use disorder are “dope addicts,” chronic pain patients take “heroin pills,” and are enrolled in “heroin prep school.” Maybe its time for @supportprop to end its hateful malicious war on the chronically ill??
