Instead of going after violent criminals, this administration is terrorizing our neighborhoods and arresting U.S. citizens.

Kristi Noem didn’t approve FEMA rescue teams for over 72 hours after the Texas floods, following a rule she imposed that required her personal sign-off on any operation over $100K.
This is inexcusable. She should resign.

Meanwhile we are experiencing Trump effect again. The jobs number for June isn't the expectation number of 95,000, it's down 33,000!

They want you angry—but not at them. They want you seething, desperate to find someone to blame. “They.” “Them.” “Those people.” Immigrants. Trans kids. Black voters. Journalists. Protesters. Anyone and everyone but the billionaires robbing you blind.

Instead of us having essential conversations about domestic U.S. policy in the days ahead, we will be agonizing over another morally bankrupt, GOP-made Middle East war. Memes offer a useful shorthand.

It's not just undocumented people who should be careful
If you are a green card holder, are in the US on a visa, have Temporary Protected Status or are pursuing an asylum claim
Do NOT march without consulting an attorney
The Trump administration has been very aggressive even to those here legally

We’ve heard reports of guidance for DHS to “pause” raids on agricultural worksites— and we’re skeptical.
As long as Border Patrol and ICE are sweeping through farm worker communities making chaotic arrests like they did TODAY, they’re still hunting down farm workers.

Martin Luther King Jr. was labeled radical by the white establishment. The FBI spied on him, trying to take him down.
He still chose nonviolence. Peaceful protest was his power—even when they called him dangerous.
“Radical” doesn’t mean you’re wrong… it means you’re getting close to the truth.
