It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

A 15 year old boy with autism went missing earlier this week

He was selling fruit with his family in Springbranch when he disappeared

They filed a missing person’s report & begged the public to help find him

Turns out he was in a Houston ICE detention facility

They kidnapped a disabled child!

It's bullshit and he knows it. When a false disjunction is all somebody has to offer they have already lost the argument.

Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

Can someone please ask @AGPamBondi if ICE is now staffed by extremists organizations like Proud Boys, 3%ers, and the former Identity Evropa & League of the South. What about those who participated in the January 6th insurrection?

Many people are saying this is true.

donald trump is the Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, and Benito Mussolini of our times. All rolled into one deranged, demented, and insane steamroller of democracy and freedom. In his own words, we all need to fight like hell to stop him and save ourselves from his reign of tyranny #USDemocracy
