Someone explain to me why it's illegal to give an old lady a bottle of water as she's waiting on line for hours in the sun to vote, but it's totally cool for an ultra-billionaire to bribe voters with million dollar checks in Wisconsin.

If Trump can disappear green card holders for protesting war, he can disappear you.
If he can disappear visa holders for criticizing him, he can disappear you.
If he can disappear asylum seekers for tattoos, he can disappear you.
We must speak out now — before there is no one left to speak out.

Holy shit, a whopping 56 percent of Americans DISAPPROVE of trump's abysmal handling of the economy.
This is lower than any other point even in his first term.
PASS IT ON.

He is admitting that he doesn’t want lawyers to stop him from breaking the law. No one would stop him from issuing lawful orders, so this has to be about unlawful ones.
Hegseth says firing of top military lawyers was about making sure "they don't exist to be roadblocks to anything that happens."

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
