My fellow Americans‼️
Pay attention to the sheer level of firepower directed at this ONE (1) young man and his skateboard.

True to form, this bad ass walks through their flash-bangs and teargas like a G, then gives cops the finger before slowly walking away. Paramount CA, outside #LosAngeles. #ICE

Snapdragons can be tough. This one is growing from between bricks!

It’s a recalibration of economic control.

Oligarchs don’t live paycheck to paycheck. They have the capital to buy market dips and recoup faster, acquiring more assets at fire sale prices along the way.

When the dust finally settles, they will own more.

The rest of us will own less. A lot less.

Which farmers? The corporate ones?
I’ll make a bet that it wont be the family farms that get bailed out.😡

if the united states ever has even a hope of recovering we have to destroy the idea of american individualism. "they don't owe you anything" we owe each other everything actually

What if you’re so outrageously incompetent you get it done in a matter of minutes?

I have WAY more pictures of my cat than I do my kids.

With Social Security, don't get too caught up talking about the minutiae.

THEY ARE TRYING TO TAKE AWAY SOCIAL SECURITY.

Lead with that every time, then talk about how: removing offices, ID verification, bogus fraud claims, layoffs, etc.

Set the narrative now. It's not alarmist. It's happening.

The Department of Education’s RIF’ed lawyers are collecting their personal belongings Monday 12-1pm, at 500 12th street SW — not the main building. Let's steer some folks their way for a clap out. Right now they’re assuming no one will show up for them and planning to make their own signs 😢

"True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.” —FDR, 1944

The protests aren’t slowing down—they’re spreading. City to city, town to town. People are outraged, and they’re making it known.

THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE. But stay peaceful—don’t give Trump any excuse for violence or martial law.

Try researching the use of various bacillus strains against blight.

USAID is the best of America. We paid for that food. Congress funded that aid. Taxpayers agreed it was in our best national interest to generously and non violently alleviate suffering around our shared globe. This is illegal af. #usaid

Go AOC! This is what we need- less of our limited paychecks going to banks.
And we need a cap on CEO pay!
