ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

That’s not making America great again.

Free speech is essential to our democracy. This attempt to silence is a clear abuse of power.

Major scoop from Status: Trump is reportedly terrified of an upcoming Wall Street Journal story revealing new info about him and Epstein—so much so, he reportedly called the WSJ editor-in-chief to try to kill it.

The Wall Street Journal is said to be working on a story highlighting Donald Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, prompting protest from the White House.

“The President remains in excellent health”

- the people who are actively lying and sharing false information about everything from who ICE is arresting to Epstein files 🙄
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt provides details from a doctor's letter about President Donald Trump that she said was intended to dispel health concerns about the swelling in his ankles and a makeup-covered hand.

Stages 3 and above indicate chronic venous insufficiency. Given Trump's swollen ankles and alterations in color to Trump's skin, he is likely, at minimum, stage 3 or 4.

BREAKING: Donald Trump has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, per @PressSec. This is a condition where veins have trouble sending blood from the legs back to the heart, often due to damaged valves. This can lead to blood pooling in the legs, causing various symptoms and complications.

Alligator Alcatraz is already infamous for its dangerous and inhumane conditions.

Congress must demand access and shut it down.
Shut Down "Alligator Alcatraz"
"Alligator Alcatraz" is an environmental and humanitarian disaster. The cruelty must end. Join me in telling Congress to demand access and block all federal funds until this compound is shut down.

ICE are attacking and torturing brown people in concentration camps. None of this is ok & it’s only a matter of time before they come for all of us, if we don’t stand up to this evil shit.

ICE = Gestapo
MAGA = American Nazi Party, and
US = the Axis of Evil

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Aside from crying and feeling feral rage about the passage of #OBBB, I didn’t know what what else to do today except to say thank you to the reps who spoke out about this bill and who voted no. Here’s my template in case you want to do the same.

The Big Death Bill has passed. The GOP willingly chose to kick millions off health insurance, close hundreds of hospitals, nursing homes, & reproductive health clinics, leave millions of families without enough food & kill thousands of people. This is the biggest assault on health in recent history.
