Just a person extremely concerned with the rise of fascism in the US, and horrified by the many who are going along with it. Let's take the power back.

We need to talk about what happened this morning in #Venezuela.
#Trump ordered the bombings of Caracas and the kidnapping of #Maduro and his wife.
Pardon my looks and words, I had been awake for maybe five minutes before making this vid.
Our president needs to be stopped.

I think the President of the US responding to a question about the murder of a journalist with "A lot of people didn't like that gentleman" is probably pretty bad.

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

Weather forecasts for tomorrow in DC show high chances of rain. Let's hope it rains on his little parade, and that nature itself shows that we need no kings. #nokingsday

I lost someone to suicide last night—because of this bill. I know disabled folks planning the same if it passes. They’ll lose everything. I can’t send them to the ER—they’d be released in 72 hrs with a $50k bill.
Please help. Lives are on the line.

Mayor Baraka and some members of Congress went to the detention center to see how detainees are being treated. Mayor Baraka was arrested for "protesting" its opening.

Not sure who needs to hear this, but any govt official who violates someone's constitutional rights -- and is acting outside the scope of their lawful authority -- can be PERSONALLY liable in a civil suit.

We cannot normalize the Abrego Garcia case. Remember, the Nazi extermination camps weren’t in Germany. They were placed in occupied territories to strip people of legal protections. Trump’s regime is using the same strategy by removing people from U.S. jurisdiction. They won't stop here. Stay alert.
