What I.C.E. and this Administration are doing to brown-skinned people is a crime.
It’s a sin.
It's inhumane.
It's not pro-life.
It’s not Christian.
It’s not making America great.
It's wrong by any measurement decent people use.
And it’s time we said it.

The I.C.E. Atrocities Should Be the Final Straw for Decent Human Beings.

Fact: Undocumented immigrants are not even eligible to purchase the ACA coverage we’re trying to protect.

Republicans voted to hike costs and take health care away from American citizens.

Including their own constituents.

Read that again. Over and over.

What Jess said!
They can direct their “cooler heads” rhetoric to their people.

Tell them, not me. I don’t want to be brought into their mess. I am not violent and have never been violent, but I have frequently been the target of violent messages.

New numbers show ICE is devouring US law enforcement: 1 in 5 US marshals, 1 in 5 FBI agents, half of all DEA agents, and over two-thirds of all ATF agents are now assigned to ICE enforcement. These are agencies with critical jobs they're now NOT doing.

On this Labor Day, let us remember that it wasn’t the CEOs and billionaires who saved us during COVID-19. It was the janitors, nurses, cleaning crews, grocery and food workers with their hard, often invisible labor.

D.C. has more residents than two U.S. states. They pay more per capita in federal taxes than any other state.

But they don’t get a serious seat at the table to decide how they’re governed.

D.C. statehood now.

WATCH: @gavinnewsom.bsky.social shreds the idea that Trump should even sniff a Nobel Peace Prize
@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "This guy is trying to get a Nobel Peace Prize? When he's bringing war to the American people? He sent the United States Marines into the United States of America."

Trump rolled out the red carpet for a war criminal. Gave him a ride in The Beast. Let him control the press conference.

Putin flew to US soil for the first time in a decade, broke his international isolation, got a massive propaganda win, and gave up nothing.

That’s not diplomacy. It’s surrender.

Vladimir Putin is a skilled intelligence officer, trained in the dark arts of manipulation and deception.

Donald Trump is an unapologetic moron who thinks Alaska is in Russia and that windmills cause noise cancer.

Their meeting should go well.

popular anti-fascism as taxpayer revolt...might have some legs
Question for Mike Flood: With $450 million being allocated to Alligator Alcatraz, and ICE burning through $8.4 million a day to illegally detain people—How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the tax payers have to pay for a fascist country?

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%. 

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Every single Republican elected official should be asked, every single day, if they approve of the Trump administration moving a convicted child sex trafficker to a cushy prison camp for white collar criminals.

Every single day.

Powerful work assembling the facts and voices and making the case--that Trump indeed has a great deal to hide.
The actual conspiracy theory is that multiple women independently lied, with apparently nothing to gain, and much to lose, about Trump’s entanglement with Epstein. katemanne.substack.com/p/the-actual...
