Imagine your precious child, a high schooler, goes out to walk the dog & never comes back.

The reason: he gets abducted by #ICE who just release the dog.

Neighbors rescue the dog & return it with the news of #ICELawless.
Your son's detained for months in brutal conditions.

ICYMI — “I identified myself as a U.S. citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. ICE Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out… this experience violated the very principles I fought to defend.”

When folks gripe about DEI, remind them who benefited from shutting out dancers like Copeland. That pattern runs through our whole history.

My god, this man is the most appalling thing about the USA.
Q: Do you plan to attend Sarah's funeral?

TRUMP: I haven't thought about it yet, but it's certainly something I can conceive of. I love West Virginia. You know, I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.

Is it “invading for me, but not for thee?” 😬😒
Homeland Security doesn’t grasp the fact that the first Thanksgiving was about making “room at the table” for European “invaders.”

I won’t be spending a dime at Target, Home Depot or Amazon this week.

Target is a no-go zone for me. I fully received the message when they told me my money wasn’t shit to them.

Home Depot is DEAD to me too. Sicking ICE on peaceful productive workers turns my stomach.

And Amazon. Well

🚨Imagine ICE conducting a raid on your PRIVATE PROPERTY.🚨
Illegal, unconstitutional, and an elevation of ICE’s encroachment. This needs to have national attention. 1/2

Trump didn’t need a discharge petition to release the MLK Jr., JFK, or Earhart files.

So why are the Epstein files the one set he refuses to touch?

Wow she just called Trump a traitor….def didn’t have that on any of my bingo cards
Greene: I was called a traitor by a man that I fought for six years for. And I gave him my loyalty for free. Fe called me a traitor for standing with these women and refusing to take my name off the discharge petition. Let me tell you what a traitor is….

Wow! Epstein survivor Haley Robson just offered to hold Marjorie Taylor Greene’s hand if she decides to read the names on the floor.

And a powerful message to Donald Trump: “I am traumatized. I am not stupid.”

It always comes down to racism in the US! And until the people accept & deal with that fact and our history, the country will to a large extend stay stuck in the cycles of small steps of progress followed by huge backlash filled with hate and anti-Black policies - costing us all no matter our race.
“Politically, Trump’s emphasis on race is not misplaced…Racial barriers – fear, contempt, mistrust – are a big reason the United States did not develop the rich safety net that the more ethnically homogeneous democracies of western Europe built.”

“You are our president. Please start acting like it. Show some class. Show some real leadership. Show that you actually care about the people other than yourself. I voted for you, but your behavior on this issue has been a national embarrassment.”

The Supreme Court’s order cites:

“Irreparable harm to a protected national heritage site,”

“Significant unresolved legal questions,” and

“Immediate risk of permanent loss of federally protected historic assets.”

The ruling freezes construction, demolition, and contracting activities.

What is the point of constant growth if all of the growth goes to billionaires?

Public policy should center on reducing inequality, not growth.

Removing a monument honoring Black US soldiers has nothing to do with DEI. It’s erasure of history and it’s straight-up racism.

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

Excessive force. PERIOD!

They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.
