Police have always treated Black people the way you’re witnessing I.C.E. terrorize Brown people.
We tried to tell you!
We called to defund and ultimately abolish U.S. military policing.
You called us Marxist extremists and ✨insisted✨ police keep us safe.
Now, they are coming for you and yours.

The real question is why "the richest country in the world" has such a large portion of its population needing SNAP? The tax evasion could instead be applied as fair, living wages, eliminating food insecurity.
Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.
That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.
Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

“Weaponizing the DOJ” takes on a whole new level when you order investigations in order to reopen it so it’s no longer closed and you can claim you can’t release information because it’s an “ongoing investigation”

Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract.
Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

They REALLY need to institute a character limit on "Truth."
But, Don, thanks for listing everything you claim to have accomplished, as it makes it easier to check the boxes next to those claims "false," "lie," "lie," etc.

Except they're not really hiding it, which is worse. They are telling us to disbelieve what we are seeing and feeling and experiencing. "Prices are lower, and if you think otherwise it's a hoax." "We're murdering people but we say it's okay so you should too." "Deny your reality."

Nobody in this administration is behaving with any kind of honesty or integrity. It's a Keystone Kops of 'run over here and hide this' and and 'do my bidding' and 'just break the damn law' and 'to hell with procedure, kill them'. It's not a government anymore. It is a dictatorship, serving one man.
I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Trump is really into renaming things. Gulf of America. Dept. of War.
I think the Justice Dept. should be renamed to reflect its current agenda of seeking retribution on behalf of Trump at the expense of integrity, honesty and true justice for the rest of us.
