This is yet another chilling example of how far the Trump administration will go in service of his billionaire enablers.

Hate speech and harm to kids online have exploded, and now the administration is targeting those working to combat it.

Their greed knows no bounds.

This is how we keep our communities safe: “Before long, Indivisible Chicago sent whistle kits in the mail to the New Orleans chapter, along with an explanation of how best to use them, and Indivisible NOLA set up a “know your rights” training that the Chicago chapter helped lead remotely via Zoom.”

We kept seeing people say Trump would start a war right before the Epstein release deadline. Looks like you were right, this sure looks like Trump declaring war on Venezuela on social media, without congressional approval.

We who grew up in the postwar era in the 20th century came to believe that democracy and freedom were inevitable.
