Trump signed an EO to combat "anti-Christian bias."

This week ICE shot a Christian Pastor, David Black & not one MAGA politician, pundit, or person has bothered to condemn it. Instead they celebrate it.

It was never about anti-Christian bias—it was always about fascism masquerading as Christianity

CBS was the home of Walter Cronkite, “the most trusted man in America.”

This week CBS announced it will be the home of new editor-in-chief, Bari Weiss, a right wing firebrand who made her name by getting professors fired for criticizing the Israeli government.

Powerful piece from @qasimrashid.com

Summarises a number of issues: how much of corporate mainstream media has been a problem undermining democracy throughout the years; how Democrats as a party hasn't really represented their supporters; how progressive views are actually moderate and more...

The Atlantic—one of the most prolific corporate media outlets in America—attacked me, my values, & my advocacy. And they got most everything wrong.

Here is my rebuttal. I doubt they’ll issue a retraction, but my receipts are undeniable. Please share and boost.❤️✊🏽

Kristi Noem is complaining that ICE and Border Patrol agents have it really tough in Chicago because the restaurants won't let them use their bathrooms or serve them food.

But I thought Republicans loved free market capitalism? 😅

Don't mess with Chicago! ❤️✊🏽

Hey Chicago! (And all America). Two points.

1. A Federal Judge just ruled that ICE violated civil rights in Chicago and acted in violation of the US Constitution

2. New merch just dropped on Ayesha's Equal Entrance shop😉

Also, if ICE and Border Patrol, and soon the National Guard think its tough in Chicago right now with mild October weather, just wait until it's 20 below with the windchill in a few months.

We'll have ICEcicles :D

So if they're miserable now, it will soon get far worse for them. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This week The Atlantic & Johnathan Chait published a hit piece on me. It’s replete with disinformation, so I’m compelled to write this rebuttal.

Such pundits have caused incalculable harm to our public discourse, & its long past time to call out their hypocrisy.
