Making this link is a big part of the entire Democratic campaign in 2026. He's hurting everyone.
The money that used to help Americans get healthcare is now being used to sponsor state terrorism. You can’t afford to see a doctor but the guy with no diploma and no skills is getting paid that money to intimidate and harm citizens.

National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation.
Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

Vance on Jan. 8: "You have a federal law enforcement official engaging in federal law enforcement action. That's a federal issue. That guy's protected by absolute immunity."
Vance today: "I didn't say that officers who engaged in wrongdoing would enjoy immunity. That's absurd."

When Trump is dead and this is all over, the damage he did won't be. We've alienated our allies not just for the duration of his term, but for decades to come. And I for one can't blame them.

Today I talked with a 76 year old who'd been standing in the cold for hours guarding her neighbors. I was getting kind of chilly, even in the new winter gear i bought for this trip (and I live in the goddam mountains myself).
She didn't even have a hat on.

ICE’s actions tear families apart, intimidate communities, & undermine the conditions that make education, research, healthcare, & public trust possible.
We’re calling on scientists to join the general anti-ICE strike in Minnesota on January 23rd.

Class warfare is when there’s a limit to what poor & disabled people can earn before losing their benefits, but no limit to what billionaires can hoard while avoiding taxes.
We must reject the twisted idea that money incentivizes the rich but poverty incentivizes the poor.

The Trump administration seems to believe that some words and ideas fail an ill-posed and completely nonscientific test of orthodoxy.
