In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it?

If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say?

Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

The scenes on our streets are shameful consequences of decades of austerity - government after government fanning the flames of anti migration instead of tackling inequality.

We can & must make different choices. Solidarity to all communities under attack. We stand together.

Cutting "red tape" (aka public protections), as Reeves is doing, does not save money. Instead, it transfers costs from the rich to the poor. Other people pay for financial recklessness, filthy rivers, air pollution, lax building standards and consumer rip-offs.

From the NSC to FEMA to NOAA to CDC to the IC to counter-terrorism centers to agencies that are supposed to protect from financial meltdowns, every part of the US government designed to protect us from crises is weaker today than it was before Trump took over.

SHOCKING FACT: Our planet is drowning in plastic waste - over 400 million tonnes a year. That’s equivalent to twice the height of the world’s tallest building.

We wouldn’t do this to our backyards - so why do it to Earth?

🚨NEW: Single-use plastic waste on UK and Channel Island beaches increased by 9.5% last year!

We all try to do our bit - recycling etc - but plastic is still everywhere.
