AOC: Oh, hell no. It was a joke. This was not a serious intelligence briefing. This was the communication of an opinion.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.
They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.
Don't fall for it.

ICE Melts Under Noem’s Shadow
ICE isn’t just losing support; it’s imploding under its own cruelty, incompetence, and Kristi Noem’s vanishing act, leaving America questioning who the real threat is.

Only criminals attack the innocent. ICE agents abusing power should be arrested, and so should the man who gave them their orders.

This is just so wrong and cruel. I am once again ashamed and embarrassed that it is my country doing this to people, wonderful, hard working people who did all the right things, only to have it snatched from them at the last minute.
Immigrants ‘plucked out of line’ at citizenship ceremony at Faneuil Hall “the cradle of liberty”.
If you ever claimed you want immigrants to do it the right way, this should outrage you. On the other hand, If you think this was okay, you need to come to terms with your white nationalist views.

No one is ever gonna get that invalid Trump to admit that his tariffs are destroying our economy & putting farmers & ranchers out of business. I have no sympathy at all for any of these people that voted for him thinking he would bring prices. His 1st term was all the evidence you needed.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

It's unbelievable how corrupt the Supreme Court is. It's insane that we are letting them get away with it. They are taking away all of our rights.

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream.
Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads.
Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

A judge ruled in October that the USDA could not deny SNAP funding to the states because of their failure to submit data.
Now, the Trump administration said it will withhold federal SNAP funding from more than 20 Dem-led states unless they turn over sensitive personal data about recipients.
