Trump-ICE is unchecked proto-fascism...
From now on, Republicans voting Trump-ICE are literally the most dangerous/destructive political force in this country.

🚨This will impact everyone.
It is not too late for congress to act.
They still have time to protect the ACA subsidies. They could also inveterate what the hell United Healthcare is doing.

United Health wants its ‘swagger back’.
How? By dropping a million seniors from Medicare Advantage
Why? America's largest insurer wants to improve its profit margins, medical costs are skyrocketing because the GOP cut Medicaid and ACA subsidies.

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

We were horrified to hear about the murder of Charlie Kirk. Political violence is never acceptable in any context, and should never be condoned. We are thinking of his family and loved ones at this terrible time.

CHIRLA just dropped a heat map tracking immigration raids across L.A., and the data is telling.
Since June, 471 confirmed operations—focused predominantly on specific neighborhoods, POC, and Latinos. Proof that ICE isn’t targeting individuals, they’re profiling communities — to meet quota.
