Documents obtained and released on Wednesday by the advocacy group Democracy Forward show that the investigative arm of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement has gathered tens of millions of voter records ahead of the midterm elections as part of a purported effort to combat “voter fraud.”

Democracy Forward, which obtained the ICE documents through the Freedom of Information Act, said records from the agency’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) branch underscore how the Trump administration is “using the power of the government to try to silence eligible voters and prevent them from accessing the ballot.”

    Ah chomo, love that! Because it’s like homo! And both are the bad sex men that we don’t like right? Ha ha ha!

    If the penis doesn’t go in the vagina, it better go in the ass or mouth of a person who has had a vagina since they were a baby! But not while they are a baby! Right?! -jesus

            That word was born in men’s prisons.

            Yes, it is a portmanteau of CHild MOlester, but it was born because it is almost exactly the word “homo” which is a slur that was already being thrown around full of spite and violence to mean “a man who does sex I hate”.

            The word chomo means “kiddy-style fa**ot”.

            It would be like if a bunch of white people started calling Chinese people “chiggers”. No, it’s not the N slur but it means “like that other race of people I hate”.
