Do y'all remember, back in 2020, when people were losing their minds about human trafficking and there were all these really wild conspiracy theories like the one about Wayfair being used as a cover to traffic people? The one where traffickers were shipping people by mail in Wayfair cabinets?

Imagine how much it's going to cost for our elderly (who are often on several prescriptions) to maintain their quality of life. And let us not forget all the chronically ill, disabled, and folks on maintenance medications. 🫠 Is this just some weird way to camouflage eugenics as an economic policy?

We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.

What will you do?

Exactly how does one prove they aren't in gang?

"Abrego-Garcia had a full and fair opportunity to litigate the issue," the government said. "He had the opportunity to give evidence tending to show he was not part of MS-13, which he did not proffer."

Does anyone else ever feel like they suffer from a Cassandra Complex? I was told I was overreacting in 2016 and again in 2024 and yet here we are. No one wants to talk about it though because "omg, can't you just let the past be the past." No. No, I can't.

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.
