Liberal leaning progressive. Make no mistake - the opposition is militant, arrogant, and celebrates cruelty. We're going to have to step-up our game.
No DMs pls - they're ignored.

Nope! I don’t want my tax dollars funding DHS brutality, and I definitely don’t want it paying for Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski to jet-set around the country and fuck in a private cabin on a luxury $70M 737 Max.

fact! proven, repeatedly over the decades. despite the 24/7 drone of "immigrants and the poor are the problem" found on our media (owned by, funded by, and programmed by the very oligarchs who are the threat).
Trent: Immigrants are far less likely than native-born citizens to commit crimes. That is not who we need to protect ourselves from. It actually turns out that we need to protect ourselves from the rich, the powerful, the oligarchs — the Epsteins of the world, the Trumps of the world.

NEW: Republican senators pitched a FIT when Jack Smith didn’t disclose toll record subpoenas were for Members of Congress (not required by law) but I’m sure they’ll be silent when they learn the trump admin illegally failed to include Natanson is a journalist on their warrant.
The Freedom of the Press Foundation files a disciplinary complaint against the federal prosecutor who signed the search warrant of WaPo reporter Hannah Natanson, arguing he failed to cite a federal law barring the application.

it's disappointing that so many of my fellow americans have to "feel the pain" of their own mistakes in judgement before they finally act to solve the problems they've caused for so many others. case in point: trump, republican support for decades, and relying on right-wing media's "opinion."
