Once more for those in back: They were never going to be able to implement a mass deportation program without prioritizing people like this. Criminals and gang members are too hard to find and apprehend. Regular folks who show up to work, church, and their scheduled immigration appointments are not.

Let's not forget to shout out the voters. Trump ran heavily on transphobia, and even though I think most people don't care about us one way or the other, he won. The lesson that everyone took away from that is transphobia wins.
