ICE grabs father by the neckβsend him into violent seizure while his arms lock up around his toddler.
"He's having seizure and they're trying to rip the baby out of his hands!"
Agents then handcuff himβbefore putting in ambulance with his child.
Mother is detained by agents as target of arrest.

Cruelty really is the point. Who else would go to court begging for permission to starve their own citizens? Meanwhile, they send $40 billion to Argentina, buying two private jets for ICE βBarbie,β and Trump has already burned through $1 trillion in less than two months.

Murdering humans in the Caribbean Sea. Risking starvation of tens of millions of Americans. Urging abusive federal agents to use deadly force.
Can Americans agree to never again elect a man who could not care less about human life, except for his own?

This has not gotten much attention, but it should.
Virginia under Youngkin returned to an insanely harsh system where people convicted of any felony lose their voting rights FOR LIFE.
Dems' win this week mean they'll get to advance a constitutional amendment to end lifetime disenfranchisement.

No itβs important to listen to this. Because then you understand that many of them will do ANYTHING to keep power. Remember Musk got involved in the 2024 election after saying to Tucker βif she winsβ I am definitely going to prison.
So we need to move knowing that nothing is off the table for them.

The SNAP contingency fund holds around $6 billion.
Trump refuses to spend it on the American people.

Trump thinks Argentina deserves our money while he lets Americans starve.

There is something deeply broken about an economy that creates trillionaires while people get buried under the cost of living and 42 million go hungry. The ultra-rich should realize that my Billionaires Income Tax, aimed at ensuring they pay their fair share, represents the moderate path forward.
