NEVER FORGET: Trump's corruption was empowered by a Republican Party of mostly old, greedy, white people, who've divided us & cheated to win since Nixon at least. Voter suppression, race-baiting, fear tactics, ballot tampering & smear campaigns began ages ago.

This is the direct consequence of policies of Donald Trump.

ALERT! 🚨🚨 ICE is in Northeast LA today abducting people. They’ve been seen so far at the Eagle rock target, Glendale Galleria, & the division and Cyprus area. Please spread the word. And please sign up for a neighborhood patrol or find a way to help protect your community from these monsters.

🌱 it’s December in So. California. Average temps are 60s where I live, low 50s at night, yet these “California Giants” zinnias are still blooming. The dogged Allen‘s hummingbirds visit the little yellow flowers and are hoovering up the nectar I put out.

Please donate if you can. A small & mighty rescue. What an excellent job they do in the loving, finding, fixing, in some cases letting go, fostering, loving and carefully vetting homes of these sweet angels. You can follow their progress and you won't be disappointed.
