Trump’s regime change war is about oil.

If it was about dictators, more brutal authoritarian leaders wouldn't rule.

If it was about communism, China wouldn't be one of our biggest trading partners.

If it was about drugs, Trump wouldn't have pardoned Juan Orlando Hernandez.

If any journalist wants to talk to a trans man with a PhD in Human Genomics who was trained in labs that studied the evolution of sex, I'm right here

Or just keep platforming Republicans who have a 5th grade understanding of biology so they get more trans people killed, sure 🤷🏻‍♂️

Problems with how US handles immigration won't be solved by deploying agents on streets of Columbus, Tramonte said. Congress must act to fix system that has long been dysfunctional. "ICE is bringing danger, car crashes, chaos. To do that the week before X-mas is salt in the wound." bit.ly/45re1OE

The purposes of immigration jail are "supposed" to be 1) make sure ppl show up for court hearings; 2) protect public. It is not a criminal sentence. When govt arrests ppl who are not dangerous at court hearings, they prove it's about punishment. That's illegal. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Samuel Saxon/ICE story keeps getting worse. Today we found out he had threatened to kill his victim several times; even his supervisor knew he was a “loose cannon.”

Yet he still kept getting transfers + promotions. Typical ICE. Unaccountable agency. Abolish it. www.wlwt.com/article/cinc...
