also an excellent blocklist of liberals who hate students/protestors in the comments
"Why aren't young people protesting?"
Consider—because they all got their shit rocked by police and prosecutors last year trying to stop a genocide, and you abandoned them.

Unconscionable. This innocent man is a legal resident and should be home with his family in Maryland.
Instead, he was shackled by ICE and disappeared into a Salvadoran mega-prison without any charges or due process.

Budget vote is today. Some dems are still on the fence. Flood their lines! Tell them to vote no on cloture and no on the continuing resolution. The CR hands spending power to Trump to slash at will. A shutdown to bring negotiators to the table is better than a permanent shutdown from being defunded
