A legal asylum-seeker who works at Chipotle and plays music at a church in Maine went missing. His pastor searched and searched, eventually finding his abandoned car with the keys on the floor.
ICE grabbed him. No criminal record. No explanation.

It's incredible to the degree with which our institutions have been completely hollowed out that allowed this to happen from the press to congress and our military. All the elites in charge have completely rotted their brains on social media and are driving this country off a cliff.

Democrats should be drawing up immediate articles of impeachment to file. This is an illegal war. There's no supporting this. Everyone needs to protest immediately as well. We cannot allow this to continue.

In the last 72 hours, 95 democrats voted to honor a bigot, no senate democrats objected to the same measure, Trump ordered an illegal prosecution and Chuck Schumer responded by calling for bipartisan budget negotiations with that same Trump.

Anyway, gotta get offline and head to my event. We're already living under fascism so we might as well live into our actual values. We might as well take risks and embrace new ways of being and doing. We should reject the status quo whenever possible. We should reject warmed over garbage.

With federal funding eliminated, millions may lose their last trusted source of news and connection.

Twenty-seven US Senators voted for the first resolution to block bomb sales to the Israeli military.
Like so much that has been happening in the past few weeks, this would have been unthinkable two years ago.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
