“If ICE was a military, it would have the 16th biggest budget in the world. You wanna talk about America First? Think about all the things we could do in this country, like giving a [hurricane] warning system to these folks in rural Texas, instead of plucking brown people out of their homes.”

I hoped never to see concentration camps like the ones I grew up in appear again in this country. Reading this breaks my heart.

Okay, NOW I have heard the stupidest thing anyone has ever said

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.

"Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees, to deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the orphan." -Isaiah 10:1-2

I wonder why we aren’t seeing this?

A press secretary who knowingly lies every day to the American people about obvious and irrefutable facts.

In a shipping container.

What, exactly, are we celebrating tomorrow?

Our cutting off healthcare to the needy to enrich the greedy?

Our new concentration camps?

Our dying economy?

Our ditching due process?

Our corruption?

Our broken legislature?

Our corrupt SCOTUS?

Our ridiculous buffoon president? #FourthOfJuly

The smell of the world right after it rains! I love that there is a word for this. Petrichor. Take a big inhale!

I didn't think I was capable of feeling any more shame for what America has become.

I was wrong.

How to Turn an “Economic Blackout” Into an All-Out War on Corporate Power Friday’s economic boycott is a one-day attack on corporate interests. The degrowth movement calls for a broader societal shift.

It Keeps Getting Worse—and No One Is Safe Donald Trump and Elon Musk aren’t just inflicting pain on poor people abroad or imagined “enemies within.” Their parade of cruelty is coming for MAGA country, too.

Good morning.

It's Blackout Friday.

Not a dollar towards the oligarchs who are holding our Republic hostage.

Not a penny for those bending the knee to a fascist authoritarian.

Give them nothing.
