We will not be distracted.
We will not be discouraged.
We’ve got our eyes on the prize.

And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve.

The time to organize is now.

The real scam: making you fear the “the other” while the rich rob you blind. I wish every American understood this.

California DOE fires back against Trump's executive order:
