Historians call it “willful ignorance” when Germans said “we didn’t know” as their neighbors disappeared.
But Americans do know.
About the raids.
The camps.
The mass deportations.
Silence now isn’t ignorance.
It’s complicity.

🚨ALERT: Elon Musk is now trying to buy a seat in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race on April 1.
Right before he endorsed Brad Schimel, Tesla SUED Wisconsin. He’s not buying a judge. He’s buying a ruling.
Why aren’t more Democrats talking about this??

EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US... those that are against the trump, musk agenda should BOYCOTT the state of the union address... DON'T ATTEND! DON'T WATCH ON TV (which would make for ANTI-GOOD TV ratings) for the liar in office.
BOYCOTT!

My almost-80 y.o. mom was worried "with all this stuff in the govt" that she should not have the 2 $100 bills in her dresser. Asked me to break them into smaller bills for her. 🥺

I recently caught up with a friend who I hadn't seen in a few months.
"Damn, you look tired today" he said to me, with sincere concern. I told him that he was right, but assured him that this was not an isolated reality.
