This won’t be popular, but if professional athletes would go on strike, it might help wake America up. They don’t listen to any group more than they listen to professional athletes.
I mentioned this in January and got a lot of hate for it.

I also support a national economic shutdown/strike

'Recipe for disaster': Some ICE recruits failed drug tests, have criminal backgrounds
YouTube video by MSNBC 'Recipe for disaster': Some ICE recruits failed drug tests, have criminal backgrounds

Hundreds of ICE recruits in training were not fully vetted. Had criminal histories, failed drug tests, failed physical tests. 50% of all new ICE agents failed the written test ALTHOUGH they could use notes and textbooks. But sure, give them guns and badges #DefundICE

I could not be prouder that my law firm is currently litigating 60 voting, election and redistricting cases in 30 states. Even as large law firms bow down, we continue to fight for democracy every single day.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

For all those with their heads in the sand, you better wake up quickly. While you go about your day, enjoying yourself, the government has declared war on you. We must defeat this Facist American government by any means necessary.

The thing that makes me the sickest is that these folks don’t even have a shred of compassion. It’s one thing to enforce laws and rules. It’s another to do it gleefully and celebrate the suffering of someone born into poverty and desperation

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

It’s Truth & Reconciliation 🪶 day on Turtle 🐢 Island. This year is hard because we have a government for the first time in 10yrs attacking Indigenous people and passing legislation to steal their land and it feels like a lot of work has been erased. I can promise, I will stand with you in any fight.

They have seen combat
& commanded units in combat for years. They know better than any why America& allies are worth defending. They didn’t need to be lectured by former Fox Sunday show guy on what the military is & should be. I cant imagine what they were thinking during the Hegseth-Trump lecture

Sending thoughts & prayers to the war-ravaged city of Portland, Oregon now under siege from attack by Antifa & other domestic terrorists. Take solace in dear leader's words: "Nothing bad can happen. It can only good happen." (and "DON'T TAKE TYLENOL"). Let the healing begin...

"Yes, autistic people existed before the 19th century, though the condition wasn't formally recognized or named until the 20th century. Descriptions of individuals with autism-like characteristics, such as difficulties with social interaction and repetitive behaviors, can be found in 👇

Christians are confident that the God of their prayers is the only God. People in other lands found other gods to worship and many, find no god at all. Lacking proof, just pray or not as you need or believe. No one should be pressured. No one knows

For myself, i feel a ‘Higher Order’ exists

The active ingredient in Tylenol is called Acetaminophen. Tylenol is the brand name. How did that heroin addled brain worm guy who swims in toxic water ever become a lawyer?
Also, autism was recognized decades before Tylenol was even invented.
