Billionaire companies are bankrolling Trump’s ballroom and it stinks of bribery.
That’s why @robertgarcia.house.gov and I introduced a bill to crack down on this potential corruption.

I call on @schumer.senate.gov and @durbin.senate.gov to step down from their roles! Durbin whipped against orders, ffs! And Schumer couldn’t/didn’t stop him. Shame on them both and on the eight who sold us out! It’s awful that I have more respect for Rand Paul 🤦🏻♀️

Even before Trump cut off SNAP funding, he and Republicans in Congress made the biggest cuts to food assistance in U.S. history.

They aren’t feeling the pains and deprivations of regular citizens, they have been elevated to a privileged class. It is unjust and cruel to take away food and healthcare from the people while they enjoy luxuries. (French Revolution comes to mind.)

That we are depriving infants and children of food, while 💩🤡 is taking unidentified “donations” to pay military (not even legal nor enough) is the height of brutality. The brutality is the point.
We must reject and resist by speaking up, support local orgs, and build up our mutual aid resources.

“The Agriculture Department says it can't use contingency funds to pay for food stamps during the government shutdown — and that states won’t be reimbursed if they cover the expenses on their own, according to a new memo…”
Exclusive: USDA says it won't use emergency funds for food stamps
States also won't be reimbursed if they cover SNAP expenses on their own, the memo says.

Today in 1957, the Little Rock Nine walked through hate with soldiers at their side. Only Ernest Green left that high school with a diploma. The rest were driven out. Now we gut schools, ban truth and call it freedom. The mob never left, it just changed its mask. #Resist

So the Idiocracy is really happening. It’s like the Rapture for them.
This is confirmed & actually going to happen.
Also confirmed that Idiocracy has been moved from the comedy to the documentary section of your streaming service.
It’s unconfirmed that the event will be hosted by President Camacho.

We are America!
I think it’s high time we take back the national narrative. For centuries Americans of all races, genders, religions, and abilities have worked to create a more perfect union, and we should shout from the rooftops that WE are America. Not these idiot white supremacist authoritarians.

It is so critical that universities and academics resist this admin’s malevolent forces. Stand up for your rights!
Trump admin must restore 100s of UCLA research grants, federal judge rules www.latimes.com/california/s... worth noting—this lawsuit was filed by a group of academics, not UCLA or CA. Hope academics at other schools follow their lead before there are more settlements (& tenure still exists)!

Trump is planning a rapid response military force to deploy domestically against Americans to crush their First Amendment right to protest.
Suppression of civil liberties, politicization of the military, and a disregard for laws are hallmarks of authoritarianism.

Pentagon plan would create military ‘reaction force’ for civil unrest
Documents reviewed by The Post detail a new National Guard mission that, if adopted, would require hundreds of troops to be ready around-the-clock.
