I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Our country's problem is "conservative" politics fueled by white supremacy. It denies human rights to our country's citizens AND the immigrants and migrants that come here to make this melting pot on stolen land home. An oligarchy now controls our gov't & our gov't is an authoritarian one. #SCOTUS

Elderly and disabled people told Congress that cutting Medicaid could kill people and in response, they were arrested in their wheelchairs.
What the hell are we doing?

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.
Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

Stephen Miller is fulfilling his high school wet dream of terrorizing all the Brown people in Los Angeles. My daughter's friends who went to SaMo High with him said he used to seethe while the morning announcements were repeated in Spanish. Hell, they did that when I went there. (Mesozoic age.)

Masked ICE thugs terrorized Chicago yesterday.
They lied to immigrants waiting for their court hearing by summoning them for “surprise check-ins” and then assaulted protesters and elected officials.
THIS IS WHAT FASCISM LOOKS LIKE.

Alina Habba, Trump’s personal lawyer and now the interim U.S. attorney for NJ, announces that the Trump administration has arrested the mayor of Newark at an private prison that ICE had decently contracted as a detention center. His arrest is seemingly for trespass.

Dr. Carla Hayden was the first Black person & woman Librarian of Congress. She championed lit that included LGBTQ voices, women, people of color, & honest accounts of history. So, of course, she was fired by a soulless president who has no interest in reading anything beyond headlines about himself.

Trans people serving in our military aren’t dishonorable. #SCOTUS judges who lied in their confirmation hearings, engage in pay-for-play corruption while on the highest court, and rule based on theocratic, bigoted ideology instead of the Constitution are dishonorable. Actually they’re deplorable.

At a time of massive inequality, Trump's budget is breathtaking in its degree of cruelty.
It slashes funding for health care, housing & education that the working class desperately needs in order to pay for more tax breaks for billionaires & the Pentagon.
That is morally obscene.

ROBERTS: I understand there might've been a phone call from the president to Jeff Bezos on this this morning
STEPHEN MILLER: I have no news to add on it. All I can say is things worked out exactly as they should.

If felon Harvey Weinstein were elected president—even after degrading & assaulting women—I wouldn't golf with him, pose for photos with him, eat the meal he offered, or even speak to him. Especially if I had the privilege of being a millionaire. I'd damn well stay home. #jalenhurts #gobirds

Donald Trump isn’t just illegally removing U.S. citizens from the country without due process.
He’s illegally removing U.S. citizens who are literal children undergoing care for cancer.
