🚨 There’s a lot of horrific news out of Washington right now—but you might have missed this: Senate Republicans just introduced a plan to sell off 120 million acres of our public lands.

Military/paramilitary forces grabbing people without process, regardless of their citizenship status because of their perceived ethnicity is perhaps better referred to as "ethnic cleansing."

Same, happened this morning.

I was suspended from threads for no reason when I got up this morning too.
