Immigrants contribute over $525B in taxes annually, including $12B to Social Security from undocumented workers who often get no benefits in return.

They pay income, payroll & local taxes, & fund vital programs for us all.

Protect our neighbors. #MeltICE

Stop aligning with the oligarchy. It is not to our benefit as a free society.

β€œGOP shut down the government to distract you. They shut the government down not because they care about spending but because… they don’t want you talking about the #EpsteinFiles, sluggish job growth, shrinking GDP, and the widening trade deficit that the tariffs were supposed to fix but [did not].”

I am deeply offended. In fact, I am so offended that I am leaving very nasty messages on Grindr Mike’s vm. Often. Loudly.

THIS is how elected officials do their jobs. Someone inform the GOP that they are woefully remiss, by showing them this video. It is a master class in putting the people first. Oh and fu*ck the Drumpf regime. Just remember: you’ve got something the broligarchs don’t have: ENOUGH.

I have been this drum since Day two. Now, of course, mahority lawmakers and justice officials will turn a blind eye. We the People, on the other hand, have both eyes wide open and must somehow ground this juggernaut .

β€œWe are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”

Not so much projection as setting us up for the Insurrection Act. Beware!

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
