As the only state in the nation that will provide free legal advice to protect the LGBTQ+ community, we'll help fight ignorance with information and cruelty with compassion.

The firing of Erika McEntarfer—Commissioner of the BLS—is how the Trump regime will start manipulating economic data.
On top of an already failing economy, none of our economic data will be reliable now.
This will lead to a crash, one that the fascists and oligarchs are positioned to benefit from.

As the abysmal job report makes headlines, remember: billionaires bankrolling the Trump regime benefit from a crashed economy.
Bankrupt companies can be bought for cheap.
Workers will be exploited as desperation for employment increases.
A weak USD empowers crypto investors.
This is intentional.

The U.S. job market was weak in July, and previous months were worse than thought
Sharp revisions of government data show the U.S. created just 33,000 jobs total in May and June, while July’s number came in soft, too.

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.

Straight out of Project 2025:
ICE is now the single largest federal law enforcement agency in the history of the nation, with enough funding to hire more law enforcement agents than the FBI and more detention potentially than the entire Bureau.
