One day national strike August 9

🚨 The GOP budget bill guts Medicaid, SNAP, housing aid & more—forcing kids, seniors & cancer patients to suffer so billionaires get tax breaks. It takes 1 min to fight back: send a letter to your reps—no matter the party—here: resist.bot/petitions/PD...

Protesters or agitators: Who is driving chaos at L.A. immigration protests? Scenes of mayhem and violence have emerged from the protests in Los Angeles. Who are the people clashing with law enforcement and fueling the unrest?

Let’s be clear:

These agitators aren’t misguided allies.
They’re not here for immigrants, they’re not here for justice.
They’re here to sow chaos.

Every brick they throw, every fire they set, hands trump & his followers more fuel.

They’re intentional, coordinated & calculated. #Peace

This is my friend's video from Santa Ana, CA in OC.

The Santa Ana PD had this situation totally under control. It was peaceful. Then ICE came in to provoke & attack.

ICE is a terrorist secret police Gestapo-style band of thugs, posers, mercenaries & miscreants

Speak up

They are not needed!

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

How Viktor Orbán Wins | Journal of Democracy The case of Hungary shows how autocrats can rig elections legally, using legislative majorities to change the law and neutralize the opposition at every turn, no matter what strategy they adopt.

WAKE UP!

America is following Victor Orbans recipe in Hungary on its way to fascism
Slowly, step by step, dismantling of checks and balances, a free press and universities and science
To accomplish this he’s been using death threats goons and mafia tactics

"There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people."

I absolutely love this graphic!
Unions gave us the weekend. The 8-hour workday. Paid sick leave. Safe workplaces. If you like not being exploited, thank a union. Union workers earn 11.2% more on average than nonunion workers in similar jobs. That’s real money, real dignity.

This is a critical point everybody in the media should be amplifying:

This is basically the same script how Russian gangsters moved the riches of the Soviet Union to private pockets... the Russification of the USA is going on...

A memo listing all of the clubs eliminated by USMA.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Our treasury is now in the hands of a lunatic who blows up rockets for fun.

hey question, is this bad?
