This!! All day this!! This should disgust everyone. tRump is no hero, he caused prolonged months and months of murder and destruction not to mention scores of men, women and children dead by the most heinous death, by starvation. I’m glad Anthony Blinken is speaking out about this!

This should be considered everywhere. They are kidnapping, abusing, harassing and threatening people who have rights. Every single one of them have rights and they are ignored. What they’re doing is unconstitutional and illegal.
Payback will come.

Be prepared for martial law to be imposed shortly after the NO KINGS DAY protests on Saturday...
Our cabal has charged that people refusing to accept their attacks on Americans are organizing murder/kidnapping of officials for hire in retaliation...
No proof is offered, only their claim...

“He’s a citizen! He’s a citizen! That’s my brother-in-law!”

ICE entered a Walgreens in Chicago running with their guns drawn looking for any person of color.

Apparently they kidnapped a black young man.

Contact Walgreens HQ and ask them to not allow ICE on their property.

An honor to receive the endorsement of
of nearly a dozen Black clergy leaders in Crown Heights today, including Bishop Orlando Findlayter.

I’m grateful for their support, and this powerful and humbling prayer.

"They know that in a functioning one-person-one-vote democracy, they could never pass the unpopular self-enriching policies they want. So they know they must focus on preserving and expanding the precedents that permit them to buy American democracy."
