So.... pandemic 2.0 incoming then?

I mean, measles is running rampant just for starters

And we know Trump's answer to a health crisis is less testing

🤔

That suggests something about his mental state, if he avoids testing

😳🤡

The fact that those calling for civil war clearly don't understand the consequences of civil war...or they simply don't care and want to see everything burn down

The Supreme Court supports profiling

This will affect anyone deemed "other"

Look..."unamerican"...ie not "white" or have an accent, irrelevant of your legal status and this can happen to you

The same as any woman deemed "not feminine enough"

It's all about control by white men

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

The Bulwark @thebulwark.com · 17h

"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7."
