The anti-trans movement is not organic; it was funded by pedophilic billionaires like Jeffrey Epstein who backed a network of conservatives to accuse the same people they were sexually abusing of being the real danger. @madycast.com exposes the truth in our in-depth report.

The headline should be, "DHS to keep 2,000 immigration officers in Minnesota."
Instead, it seems the entirety of the traditional media went with, "DHS to withdraw 700 immigration officers from Minnesota."
This presser worked like a charm.

Without identification there is no accountability.
We are seeing the consequences of that over and over again in American communities, with officers engaging in violence, violations of rights, and even murder.

One thing we have two weeks to do: Debunk Stephen Miller's lies that the invasions have ever been primarily about deporting the worst of the worst.
Another thing: Show that w/GOP consent, Trump has SHIFTED govt spending from nice things like VA care (&cancer cures) to pay goons who shoot VA nurses.
