Some ICE detainees are being forced to perform cheap labor ($0.13/hr), in exchange for very brief phone calls & basic necessities.

Meanwhile...The owners of for-profit detention centers used by ICE are raking in BILLIONS, funneling money back to MAGA-aligned PACS to feed the cycle of corruption.

The law has been gutted. Corruption reigns unchecked. Fascism lurks, ready to bury the last breath of liberty. But this isnโ€™t the endโ€”itโ€™s magic time as we rise. Those who believe in justice for all must awaken, armed with the truth in TheCleanNewDeal.org, and reclaim whatโ€™s slipping away.

Opinion | The immunity ruling was ostensibly to protect former presidents. So much for that. Far from deterring such prosecutions, the courtโ€™s 2024 decision has made them easier.

Now that we have your attention:

Watch this breakdown of how Trump and Republicans plan to steal the electionโ€ฆ

Not by earning votes, but by defying political gravityโ€”slicing up Black and Latino districts to maintain their grip on power.

Graphic from: The Resistance 

The reason I have been unwaveringly "Never Trump" from the beginning is it's always been obvious to me that Trump is a bad person whose personal values are fundamntally at odds with the values of American democracy. Not a flawed person, as we all are. But a BAD person.

I'm not talking about bad ideas or moral failings. I'm talking about walking, talking, malign intent. A person who genuinely doesn't care about other people unless he can use them for his own gain. A bad person leading the country will always lead to bad outcomes.

BAD PEOPLE FLOCK TOGETHER.

Donald Trump is a sociopath who thrives on hate, power and greed. His MAGA supporters admire these traits and they openly get off on his cruelty.

Republicans will say and do the most despicable things while hiding behind Bibles claiming to be good โ€˜Christians.โ€™

I agree with Ted Cruz that now isnโ€™t the time to politicize any deaths.

I just wish Ted Cruz would agree with Ted Cruz the next time something happens in a blue state and he decides to be a partisan fuckwit.
