And we will support news laws that protect the rights of all people. Love is love and people are people.
I see people posting various laws that supposedly allow the president great powers to oppress American citizens. I say bullshit.
The Constitution guarantees a number of important rights to every American citizen. Laws that contradict that are not legitimate.

We WILL NOT OBEY unconstitutional laws.

We need protests and action in these communities to push back on the building of concentration camps.
Update: In the past week we've learned ICE has secured property to build human warehouses in Merrimack, NH and Williamsport, MD *as well as* Surprise, AZ; Upper Bern, PA; and Tremont, PA.

Facts that bear repeating.

The government’s arrests of journalists @donlemonofficial.bsky.social and @bygeorgiafort.bsky.social are attacks on press freedom.

Two federal courts rejected prosecuting Lemon, but instead of accepting that defeat, the government has doubled down.

Time to abolish ICE.
MINNESOTA — Mom goes outside to warm up her car, ICE grabs her: "Please, my car kids are all alone in the house!”

So nothing has changed and Homan was just to put a new face on the cruelty, got it

By arresting Don Lemon, Trump is acknowledging that social media and podcasters are damaging him.

Republicans have bought up all the Main Stream Media but independent journalism is hitting back hard on the truth.

And just like that the money disappeared into a private Trump account.
Thanks for the plane!
SHAHEEN: It's been reported that the oil sold for $500 million and $300 million went to Venezuelan government. What happened to the other $200 million?
