Old lady, Democrat, American, antifascist, Christian (Episcopal). Anyone admitting to being a Republican isn't, these days, fit to win any office. But Christians need to pray for their enemies, so we should pray for Trumpsters to repent & reform.

I’ve never been a “defund the police” type of guy. I believe that police are necessary, despite their flaws.
But ICE is different. I am 100% behind ending their existence and prosecuting every single one of them.
ICE must go. End of discussion.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

If #trump can ban immigration from a particular country based on the actions of a single citizen from that country…
We should not allow anyone from Queens to hold the office of the Presidency…
Effective immediately.

The problem with ICE is not that it's targeting people who aren't criminals. The problem with ICE is that it's an unaccountable secret deportation police. It cannot be reformed under a better president. It can be made less terrible, but the instrument of repression remains for the next tyrant.

Place National Guard in harm’s way for no good reason. Two members are tragically and unnecessarily shot. The reckless regime’s response: We’re sending 500 more National Guard troops! What a disgrace.

I keep saying this because I can't -believe- that all grownups don't know it: If you hear a rattle, look for a snake. If you hear someone say, over and over, "frankly," "to tell the truth," "I gotta be honest," they are LYING. They lie; they think you lie; they are concerned to pacify you.

When Trump was asked about the release of the Epstein files, he called one reporter "piggy" and said another was "being insubordinate."
When Trump saw a video calling on the military to follow the constitution, he called for the death of the Democrats who made the video.
He's a tyrant.

Disband ICE. Arrest the terrorists and their bosses.
Empty the concentration camps and jail those responsible.
Restore our SNAP and our healthcare and jail those who stole them from us, who violated their oaths to do so.
End fascism. End plutocracy.

I don't know why we still call them ICE and treat them as a legitimate organization. They are an armed Militia and should be designated as a terrorist group. No other legal force in America wears masks and strips people of due process. They are a terrorist organization

Pretend there’s a war on (there isn’t).
Pretend drug traffickers are terrorists (they’re not).
Pretend overdoses are armed foreign attacks (they’re not).
Pretend “the president says so” means Congress has no role (it doesn’t).
Voila, legal. When factual reality is irrelevant, any law can apply.

You would think that the 8 GOP Senators who are SO OUTRAGED that Jack Smith subpoenaed their phone records that they want $1 million compensation would bring him in to testify IN A PUBLIC HEARING to explain why he did this. But no, they don’t want to do that. I wonder why?
