>Barbara Canales, a 49-year-old certified nursing assistant who lives in Hialeah, said her mother brought her as a young girl from Honduras with a visa and overstayed it. It took them many years to legalize their status and to be able to bring other family members.

If Im reading this right she was an illegal immigrant, no? So was her mother?

I always wondered why people who are about to be executed would dig their own graves for their executioners. I kind of assumed it was to buy themselves time—you never know, shit might kick off and you get an opening to flee or fight back.
Turns out, folks will dig their own graves just for the love of the game and out of respect for their murderers.

The headline sounds too definitive for what the article is really about which is fewer numbers of Hispanics willing to publicly speak out against Trump’s immigration policies, a few whose affection for Trump allows them to rationalize anything he does, and others who don’t seem to know what illegal immigration means or that the Republicans are turning against even legal immigration.
This one made me despair though:
