LA Dodgers pledge $1 million in support of immigrants amid ICE raids

The Los Angeles Dodgers have announced they will commit $1 million towards financial assistance for families of immigrants "impacted by recent events in the region."

The announcement, made on Friday, did not specify exactly what "recent events" referred to, but it comes amid ongoing federal immigration raids targeting migrants in the area, and calls from the Dodgers' fanbase for the organization to speak out against them.

"What's happening in Los Angeles has reverberated among thousands upon thousands of people, and we have heard the calls for us to take a leading role on behalf of those affected," the Dodgers president and CEO, Stan Kasten, said in a statement.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

Notice they don't say ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, though it can't be construed any other way!  They're trying to cover the fact the organization is a bunch of scofflaws.  Personally, I don't support organizations who support illegal immigration, even if it is on TV. **nononono*
