Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.
Theyโve had their necks kneeled on.
Theyโve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.
At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.
Maybe instead of committing atrocities, we could just make the rich pay their fair share and have universal healthcare and affordable housing instead.
Idk, just spitballing here.
Yesterday the President fell asleep, yet again, during a televised fake Cabinet meeting staged so that each of his courtiers could heap praise on him, praise for which he couldn't stay conscious. He woke up just long enough to spew racism. Why is this not being treated as an emergency? >

Do not.
Scientists studied thousands of children born March 2020-May 2021.
Out of 800+ mothers diagnosed with COVID-19, 16.3% of their babies received a neurodevelopmental diagnosis by 3 years old, compared with 9.7% who werenโt exposed to COVID-19 in utero.

Their tax rate has been cut FIVE times in the last 25 years.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesnโt claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

Probably time to loudly repeat that members of the military must not follow illegal orders. The US is not at war with Venezuela and has no right to threaten aircraft in its airspace, let alone shoot anything down.
