I don't understand how the rest of the world doesn't get that this will damn all of us. You cannot starve an entire people and assume it won't have consequences for you...wherever you are.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Dina. Dina has 5 children, her husband lost his job and they lost their home. Their youngest child Moody has breathing issues he’s struggled with and their two eldest children had to stop their engineering studies because of lack of funds.

I know a lot gets forgotten about the first Trump administration but they arrested a local judge for the exact same thing in 2019. This isn't the first time.

This is a fascist move by this administration but one they've done before.

This so directly out of the Nazi playbook. The very obvious plan is to get rid of the independent accreditors and put all universities under jurisdiction of the federal government. This is how Hitler took over German academia and made it a wing of his party.

NEW from @nytimes.com: A bone-chilling account. A Venezuelan man detained alongside the 238 sent to El Salvador on March 15 seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth. His name isn't among the names of those sent to CECOT that day and no one spotted him among those men. He's just... gone.

I'm quite comfortable with abolishing deportations and giving every immigrant and refugee a home and food and education and a job and safety, and if you object on the basis that we don't give citizens those things, my answer is simply that we should be giving those things already.

Yes, the class war is the issue, but a war is won with weapons. You don't ignore an incoming grenade/bullet to focus on the "bigger picture."

Class war is being won using bigotry, economics, & social control. Do not ignore them: create armor against them & attack where one weapon harms you least.

Florida: Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez (20) is being held in the Leon County Jail, charged with illegally entering Florida as an “unauthorized alien."

Lopez-Gomez is a U.S. Citizen, born in the USA. He showed his U.S. birth certificate in court. The judge held him in jail anyway.

This is Fascism.

If the only thing stopping a president from breaking the law is whether or not they choose to do it, you do not live in a democracy. This presidency did not change anything; it just made it plain. The only thing holding the Constitution in place was vibes.

THAT's why we need real people power.
