The question is: What is the role of government? I'm fighting for the Constitution, the laws that make life more fair and care for the environment. The role of government is to take care of its people. What is "take care of?" To ensure basic health, welfare, education, and economic participation.

I don't think legacy media is reading the room correctly on the Epstein Files. Many of us are asking why they have ignored this story for the last decade? Why did they dismiss all of us who were concerned that Trump might be compromised? And where is their fucking contrition and apology now?

Gov. Pritzker: “All I can say is that whether it was the loss in the elections a week ago that's led to Donald Trump deciding to pull CBP out or the fact that Greg Bovino is a snowflake…Whatever it is, the people of Chicago have deserved better than having CBP and Greg Bovino in this city.”

“Riots Raging”: The Misleading Story Fox News Told About Portland Before Trump Sent Troops

I really hope that when this ends— because it IS going to end— every last person responsible for these abominable abuses of power rots in prison for the rest of their miserable lives.

ICE agents in Chicago violently detain a non verbal autistic man for being “non compliant”
He couldn’t “comply” because of his disability…they don’t care
This is not the first time they’ve gone after a disabled person
They target the most vulnerable because it’s an easy way to meet their quota

Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
