- Never committed a crime.
- Fled his home when persecuted for being LGBTQ & refusing to give in to an authoritarian regime.
- Sought asylum through a legal pathway.
- Found us to represent him in court.
So, why did the Trump admin forcibly remove him?
He had tattoos.
If you apply this margin shift (18 points on average in the 2 FLA districts) to all the 2024 races, Dems would have a 268-167 majority in the House and a 54-46 majority in the Senate. Unlikely for sure, but even a 5-point margin shift across the board would have meant Dem majorities in both houses.

And do free people expect to read every book they want to read for free (at public expense)? After all, many people who write and produce the books do expect a return on their effort and investment. Just a thought.
Tweet thread: Molly White @molly0xFFF 37m and when you decide to defund libraries because "people who can afford it can just buy the books", you restrict access to those who can't afford it Ken Herman @kherman 21m How about if we use those tax dollars to buy the books for those who can't afford them? Molly White @molly0xFFF congratulations! you have just invented libraries
