#FreePalestine

rashidatlaib • 54m Believe Trump when he says he wants to deport United States Citizens. They started with advocates for Palestinian human rights, our Latino neighbors, and our university students, but a fascist regime won't stop there.

there is no fact-based evaluation that does not hold George W. Bush and Barack Obama partly responsible for where we are with Trump. For decades we let these guys extend the power of the executive and no one with power ever pushed back. We are reaping those consequences now.

Who the president is right now doesn't matter, this was always going to happen as soon as Trump won. And it's going to happen again and again while he's in office, just like it did the first time around.

If I Were Going To Commit A Genocide If I were going to commit a genocide, I’d make sure to kill as many women and children as possible to eliminate the future generations of the people I was trying to wipe out.

If I Were Going To Commit A Genocide

If I were going to commit a genocide, I’d make sure to kill as many women and children as possible to eliminate the future generations of the people I was trying to wipe out. Come to think of it, I guess I’d do what Israel is doing in Gaza.

Great job! Two knee replacements prevents me from doing my former favorite activity: 5K and 10K races.
