There are over 50,000 illegal Irish immigrants in the US.

You will never hear abt this, bc they're the right color.

The maj of undoc ppl are those who overstay visas.

Who gave $1 million to Trump’s inaugural fund?

-Each of the 5 biggest tech firms
-The CEOs of Uber & OpenAI
-Auto giants Toyota, Ford, & GM
-Drugmaker behemoth Pfizer

Corporate America is desperate to kiss the ring.

There's nothing they won’t do for a tax break.

Welcome to Intellectual Slavery.

You will be punished for being stupid. That’s what the next four years will look like. Vet everything. Believe nothing. Be skeptical of anything. Follow the money. Toodles!

Alright, good luck. 👍🏾

Nearly 400 books removed from school libraries in one Tennessee county. Based on my skim of the list, most of them appear to be books by women, authors of color, &/or LGBTQ+ authors.
