Immigration Protests and Political Tension in the United States
**Immigration Protests and Political Tension in the United States** Immigration has become one of the most important political issues for Americans in 2026. Recent incidents involving federal immigration enforcement sparked nationwide protests, with thousands of people demanding accountability and policy reform. Many protesters are calling for limits on the power of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, while others support stronger border security. The debate has deeply divided public opinion and intensified discussions in Congress. As the country moves closer to the midterm elections, immigration is expected to play a decisive role in shaping voter attitudes and influencing future laws that affect border control, civil rights, and national security.

Dead and Wearing Green
She was wearing that green dress when I first saw her, five years ago to the day. Flowing meadow fabric draped over long legs, thick auburn hair flowing down her back. That smile. Of course, she is still beautiful now. But now she is no longer alive.
