Weβve had around nine years of various protests (remember the DC Womenβs March in 2017) with little-to-no effect. Marching around on a weekend simply doesnβt achieve much. We need organization and economic pressure to actually affect change. #gapol #gadem #nokings

You actually donβt have to hand it to Donald Trump. You donβt have to give him credit for anything. Heβs a horrible human being who has never known a day of suffering in his life. Nor does he care an ounce about the suffering of anybody else. Hope that helps.

Many were convicted on bogus charges and sent to the first concentration camps, but purposely kept alive until, in 1945, it was clear that the regime was coming to an end.

After the Constitution was signed, it was sent to Congress in New York. Washington wrote a personal letter to the President at the time. An immigrant from Scotland, Arthur St. Clair. The only foreign-born "President" of the United States. #gapol #ConstitutionDay #immigrants

There wasn't an established method to become a US citizen for another 100 years. In many cases, after a couple of years, one would simply declare residency at a local court. Easy peasy, so long as you were a white person.

Washington, Grant, and Eisenhower - three of our greatest generals that became Presidents would never use the language weβre seeing from Trump and Hegseth. We have an American military tradition that we should follow.
