Chicago journalist Debbie Brockman, who was thrown to the ground & handcuffed by ICE, has been released without charges

DHS said she assaulted an officer, but eye witnesses claim she didn’t

The lack of charges makes it clear that ICE is lying to try and cover up the fact that they attack the press

Trump is wrecked and his goons know we're going to turn them black and blue everywhere they appear. It's over for the weak fascists. It's over. They've surrendered to us.

The easiest way to make me blow my lid right now is to interfere in the lives of people who are questioning their sexuality. It's an incredibly difficult time for them. Can u not make all of it harder??

Members of America's military are lining up at food banks because they aren't getting paid.

America isn't getting great again until the entire government gets turned over. The terrorists AND the motherfuckers who aren't doing enough to stop them.
