The president of the most powerful nation on Earth is so terrified of the tales that an imprisoned sex trafficker can tell that he plies her with a comfort puppy and custom meals and is holding out the prospect of a pardon.
77 million people voted for this.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

"What need have I of all your sacrifices?" says the Lord...
Bring no more vain offerings. Incense is offensive to Me...
Learn to do good. Seek justice. Aid the oppressed. Uphold the rights of the orphan. Plead for the widow."
Isaiah 1.11 to 17
Bring no more vain offerings. Incense is offensive to Me...
Learn to do good. Seek justice. Aid the oppressed. Uphold the rights of the orphan. Plead for the widow."
Isaiah 1.11 to 17
From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."
Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:

Letter from Chicago broadcast veterans: Federal immigration agents have traumatized us and eroded our rights
The fact that some federal immigration forces may be leaving soon is cold comfort given the damage they’ve done.

that’s a lot of free labor 🙃
This is far worse than anyone expected.
Trump's HUD plan would cut *two-thirds* of permanent housing and push as many as 170,000 formerly homeless people back onto the street—redirecting funds to work mandates, forced treatment, and encampment sweeps.
All as mass internment camps are being built.

It is crucial to understand that a tragic number of people dangerously believe that the word "freedom" means not the expansion of freedom for others, but the freedom for themselves to oppress others, to control others, and to force their beliefs on others.

Cutting 30,000 jobs at the VA, which will put veterans' services at risk.
Firing federal workers across government, many of whom are veterans.
Gutting SNAP & Medicaid, which millions of veterans need.
Our vets defended us, and this is how the Trump regime is repaying them?

I see people throwing themselves in front of armored feds on the streets. People pushing to get close to Broadview ICE to stop the evil horrors inside & out. Regular people are throwing themselves into the path of danger daily & their reward is to have their health care taken away by rich cowards
