We the people demand federal forces out NOW. #FreeDC

Armed masked men kidnapping people off the streets.
An illegitimate Supreme Court trampling the Constitution.
Congressional Republicans abdicating responsibilities to their King.
Billionaires consolidating power, wealth, and influence.
Fascism is here. The question is, what will you do about it?

Final vote. 50-50. VP breaks the tie.
One single GOP Senator could have stopped this abomination. Saved millions of parents from watching their child go hungry. Saved the lives destroyed when Medicaid disappears.
They will all live forever with the horror of this bill.

“Where are the “Free Kilmar” billboards? Where are the front-page stories counting down his days in hellish captivity? Why was today the first time his family was featured on new and old media outlets? The conspiracy of silence and complacency must end.” New from Jen Rubin.

Liberals spent the president-elect’s first term trying and failing to kick him out of office. This time out, they need to turn the White House into a prison.
