#Blackhistory Here’s a list of Black inventors whose creations shaped industries, yet they saw little to no profit. I was able to quantify some of their industries’ revenues vs. their earnings to expose the injustice. Let’s give credit where it’s due.

Call to action: US national protest on Monday February 17 at your State Capitol or White House. Spread far and wide.

End Impunity
End Oligarchy
End Autogenocide

Dissent is patriotic. We will not allow the Trump administration to bulldoze our rights — we’re fighting back.

Senator Raphael Warnock ahead of the vote on RFK Jr. for HHS Secretary:

"I simply do not trust him to oversee the CDC. He's unqualified, and I dare say that everybody here knows it."

BOOM!

This is America’s Brexit. Trump is breaking a decades long Treaty. Trump is destroying our economic leverage. The UK did the same and it has not worked out well for them.
Tariffs are apparently on the way. The reason is stated to be increased fentanyl surveillance at the borders. That goalpost will move.

"Agriculture, automobiles and energy suppliers, pillars of all three economies, would be upended by blanket tariffs."

Your language learning is important

If you doubt this, look at governments across the globe and their policies concerning language.

"can't believe trump signed an order to end birthright citizenship, that's how most of his family got citizenship!"

he doesn't care - his goal is removing the right to vote from as many of his opponents as possible. what's the easiest way to do that?

take away our citizenship.

I'm hoping that after these 4 years are over and people realize what a fascist, oligarchal presidency looks like, they'll realize that an AOC presidency isn't really that unreasonable

old-timer pushover democrats must retire!

the fact that he did this TWICE is insane to me

if it was once it could be played off as a wave or maybe a stretch (??) but it couldn't be clearer what he's doing... can't wait to see how right wing media will try and spin it off 🙃

hot take: animation is a great and underrated medium and has produced amazing films before, adapting everything to live-action just isn't original or interesting :)

The Supreme Court ruled corporations were allowed to donate unlimited amounts to politicians in 2010.

It only took them 6 years to take complete control of the government and 15 years to mark sure their voices are the only ones the masses ever hear again.
