Trump praised Hitler, has operated concentration camps, is engaged in ethnic cleansing of America, is using troops against innocent citizens, is committing mass murders and acts of war against other countries, and is overthrowing foreign countries. We know where this is going.

For those wondering, felon and Hitler enthusiast Trump declaring himself "acting president of Venezuela" is flagrantly illegal and a violation of Venezuela's sovereignty and independence. It's also gross imperialism that threatens global security.

It's been well over three weeks since the deadline set by law and they still haven't fully released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

If ICE had anything to do with enforcing the law, they wouldn't be breaking our laws or attacking the innocent.

A key way to help stop ICE is "providing people with concrete, outward-facing activities... while building an escalating national campaign that can culminate in larger coordinated days of nonviolent disruption..."

ICE can’t function without help from the private sector. So we should force the private sector to stop helping.

So let me get this straight. The man who tore down the East Wing of the White House in order to build an oversized ballroom that no one asked for has launched an investigation into Jerome Powell over renovations to the Federal Reserve headquarters.
Did I get that right?

At 35th and Park, a crowd has gathered after a car crash involving the feds. Agents just launched tear gas and pepper balls at people.

Thing is, leaders all over the world take actions to stop conflicts all the time. It's part of their job. They just don't go around campaigning about their self-proclaimed "greatness" or pouting like man child Trump that they didn't get a medal and pretending like they're the Messiah.
Convicted felon and rapist Donald Trump, whose greatest accomplishment has been evading prison for numerous crimes--including war crimes and inciting a deadly insurrection--said recently, "I can't think of anybody in history that should get the Nobel Prize more than me."

Miller talks like he drank the Kool-Aid and is drowning in it. This is the kind of legitimizing ideology that characterizes a lot of abusers, bullies, rapists, sexisms, and racists.
From the fascist deputy chief of staff of the Trump White House Stephen Miller:
“We live in a world, in the real world … that is governed by strength, that is governed by force, that is governed by power. These are the iron laws of the world since the beginning of time.”
🤮😱🤬😨🤯😤😠😫🤪😵💫🫥🥵🥶

Renee Good’s last words were to ICE agent Jonathan Ross: “That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.” Then Ross shot Renee three times in the face. As she was dying, his last words to her were: “Fucking bitch.” And JD Vance thought that exchange exonerated ICE. That says it all.

There was a time when fighting fascism was considered patriotic. Today, it'll get you labelled by Trump as a "terrorist." Not coincidentally, Trump praised Hitler, ran concentration camps, is engaged in ethnic cleansing, and is trying to take over other countries.
