How can Board members of the Detroit Economic Club extend an “open invitation” to Trump to speak whenever he wants to? DEC Board members include Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI) and Jocelyn Benson, Michigan Secretary of State.
People need to stop pretending the U.S. government isn’t actively rebranding as a white supremacist movement.
🚨 The Trump administration has rolled out a coordinated campaign across departments, using imagery and messaging straight from right-wing and white nationalist circles.
This isn’t subtle.
