America:
We are at a fork in the road

Trump supporters:
How can you support this?

Military leaders:
Soon, you may well be asked to make decisions you should never have to make.
But, your training has prepared you for this very moment.
Our country needs you to live the values of the oath you took.

When agents of the federal government lie and inflict physical harm on citizens, what recourse do we have?

So proud of my Emerson teammates, and so happy to work with them, to try to help feed families who are really struggling right now.
If we don’t all help take of our neighbors right now, who will?
It must be us!

Haiti is back in the World Cup- for first time in over 50 years!
Just an extraordinary story of resilience and perseverance- because their country is overrun by gang violence, the national team was not able to play a single match at home.
I hope the world takes notice of what is happening there.

Trump dismantling the Department of Education today is another illegal act by him.
Congress created the department, and only Congress has that power.

It is a real sign of weakness by Trump. He doesn’t have the votes in Congress to do what he wants to do, so he resorts to illegal actions.

ICE is absolutely sick
ICE is pure evil

I hope our country, and the rest of the world, are waking up to this reality.

Texas National Guard departs Illinois.

Good!
This was a complete waste of their time, and our taxpayer money.
Trump’s attempt to use them to create chaos on American soil, in the streets of our city, was a complete and utter failure!

I feel bad for them, and for all of us.

When rats are cornered, they will destroy anyone, & anything, around them in an attempt to save themselves.

As Trump tries to save himself, no person, no institution, no country & no democracy is safe.
He will sacrifice it all, & never have a second thought about it.

We must prepare for the worst.

Trump Rails At Marjorie Taylor Greene After She Blames Epstein Files For Their Falling Out After the president pulled his endorsement from the Georgia congresswoman, the pair traded barbs in a social media battle that spilled into the next morning.

Never ceases to amaze me how people who support Trump, and forfeit all of their integrity to do so, are then stunned when Trump lies about them and turns on them.
As long as he was doing the exact same thing to others, they were absolutely fine with it.

Less than 3% of people arrested here by ICE had a criminal record.

Trump’s goal is never law enforcement.
It is always to try to intimidate, humiliate, to inflict fear and trauma on the most vulnerable, and to desensitize us to federal troops being on our streets before the midterms.

When Jeffrey Epstein calls you the worst of the worst, that obviously tells us all we need to know.
And yet, our country elected this man- the worst of the worst- to be President, twice.

Very sadly, that says a lot more about who we are as a country now- and what we value- than it does about Trump.

Anyone else now wondering how, and why, Epstein died?
Ever wonder what happened to the missing prison film that would have recorded what happened at the time of his death?

Dude. They’re all over. We can’t shut kids in the house 24/7. They set off tear gas outside our SCHOOLS. Should we not bring kids to schools?

I hope that Dems make them own it. This footage should be in every online as and popping up in YouTube in the manosphere. They need to see it. People who are disengaged from politics need to see it.

Immigrants have always made our country stronger.
Immigrants have always made our country safer.
Immigrants have fought, and died, for our freedoms and our democracy.
Immigrants are never the enemy- they are our true heroes and patriots.

This is what ICE has done to our city: the press now feels they need to wear bulletproof vests to do their job

My god, the heartlessness.
Bring the baby … where? Shopping?
Because if you meant “America”, turns out, they are CITIZENS.

They were literally just driving down the street, and ICE assaulted them while driving in the opposite direction.
The baby was in her car seat in the back seat.
And, not that it matters, but for the record they are all citizens.

You, and so many others, simply can’t handle the truth.

ICE in Chicago- tear gassing babies.
This is who they are.
This is what they do.
Do not look away…

Faceless, heartless, soulless ghouls.

We must disrupt all attempts to roll back progress.
We must defend the gains that we have made.
We must dream of a better day.

And, we must put the work in, every single day, to achieve that dream, together!
