Boy, y'all better hope the revolution never kicks off given that you're sticking all these vital data centers in the south to poison black people.

Iβm always struck by the journalism thatβs on Instagram that I donβt see here.
For example, this image of a protestor β a US citizen β being arrested by ICE today at a car wash in Los Angeles.

D.C. is not crime-ridden.
D.C. is not a war zone.
D.C. is not in danger.
The only threat to D.C. is the Trump regimeβs authoritarian takeover.
