Volunteers use bullhorns and sirens to warn immigrants when ICE is in their area
Before dawn this week, dozens of volunteers spread across Los Angeles to look for immigration officers. When they see U.S.
LIKE A GOOD NEIGHBOR, BULLHORNS ARE THERE. Areas targeted by ICE are being informed by neighbors of their rights.
People are literally walking around with bullhorns telling people not to open their doors and what their rights are. We love to see it.

As someone who is generally suspicious of purity tests, I will say this:
Nobody forced Newsom to take those positions.
It's not like he was in a tight race, fighting for his life, and then the question was put to him in a debate.

Yep, this is where they use Americans' tax money to pump their own crypto holdings and then sell out their holdings for personal gain.
Knew this was coming but I figured they would probably wait a few months. Why on Earth I figured that, I don't know.

Results have already started. This is from an
american woman today: My husband works for a
small manufacturing company and here in
southwestern PA that means most employees are
Trump voters. When the president of the company
sat them down today to tell them their annual
Christmas bonus would not come this year because
they now need to purchase at least a years worth of
products prior to January 21 st due to the proposed
tariffs, they did not understand. My husband said that
their president had to explain what a tariff is and how
it will directly hurt their company. They all thought the
foreign company paid the tariff. This is the level of
ignorance voting against their own interests here in
PA, where we failed American women and children

What takes this hilariously over the top is them both completely ignoring the existence of women AND making it immutable without a supermajority.
