I'm gonna say it again: I am done with the "why are you surprised" trolls.

The capacity to remain shocked and upset by what is happening in our country is a sign that you are not numb to fascism.

We have good reason to be shocked by SCOTUS endorsing the sale of migrants into slavery, for instance.

I can’t speak for every city, but here in LA, ICE bounty hunters aren’t going after gang members. They’re hunting the vulnerable: gardeners, street vendors, day laborers.

Easy money, no risk.

Folks need to stop pretending this is about crime.

Just a reminder that you can be against the Iranian regime AND deeply troubled that we have a president waging unilateral war without Congressional approval.

I’m no fan of the Iranian nuclear program. Which is why President Obama signed a treaty with Iran to dismantle it.

The only reason Iran is enriching uranium is because Trump tossed out the Obama-Iran treaty the minute he got into office.

This was all preventable.

They’re going to try to make you feel insane for opposing this war. They’ll ignore protests and downplay any opposition. They’ll try to strongarm you into submission.

They did it with Iraq and they’ll do it again.

And then a few years later they’ll pretend they were with you all along.

Bombing Iran is a great way to distract from how your administration is bombing elsewhere.

To every white person who donated to that woman—shame on you. You didn’t just give money. You gave approval. You co-signed the dehumanization of a five-year-old Black child. You invested in racism. You told the world that calling a Black child a n*88er is acceptable—and profitable.

You are vile.

Tariffs are taxation without representation. We wrote a whole Declaration of Independence about it. Threw tea in the harbor and everything.
