Trump claims “there are only two sexes” & he’s going to round up & deport all undocumented immigrants. We have a duty to our trans & undocumented brothers and sisters.
So, let’s do this about that:
FROM TODAY FORWARD, ALL OUR PRONOUNS ARE THEY/THEM AND WE ARE ALL UNDOCUMENTED.

And don’t forget about the diplomatic and economic response. Suspending trade. Suspending air travel to and from. Rolling up our CIA agents. Taking over our military bases and equipment in NATO countries and expelling our soldiers. No longer buying US Treasuries.

Danish and allied special forces have begun arriving into Nuuk, Greenland's capital. Any attack on the Island would result in Article 5 of NATO being activated and a 31 country military response towards the aggressor country.

Khanna: Joe Rogan is saying you’ve got a rogue agency. Basically, ICE is acting as the president’s private police. They’re going and knocking on Americans’ doors. They’re harassing people in their cars. They’ve taken over an entire state.

.@PabloReports: Stephen Miller seems to be operating sort of as a shadow president at this point. Is there any legal liability he could face at the end of this presidency?
Ryan: There’s going to be legal—and I think criminal—liability for multiple members.. certainly Stephen Miller.

Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

The 2 important parts of this statement are
1) “according to two U.S. officials” (who are probably Stephen Miller’s coffee boys or Kristi Noem’s hairdresser.)
