What's happening on the streets of America is absolutely terrifying. Not criminals, but everyday citizens are disappearing from our streets by masked mystery men. WE MUST STOP THIS! #resist

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality.

Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, it’s fundamentally the same playbook.

Our duty is to stand up to brutality.

Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

Texas proudly invading Illinois.

It’s hard to describe the level of potential constitutional crisis here.

Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement?

The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy.

At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

I think l'm ready to get rid of Hulu and Disney, and never watch ABC again.

Time for institutions,
organizations, corporations, etc.. to stand courageously with us, the people, and say no more!!

We WILL continue to speak up.

The U.S. government has become a neofascist regime run by a sociopath.

Keeping it funded now is to participate in the most atrocious abuse of power in U.S. history.

So I for one have decided that the best route is to shut the whole thing down.

‘Help me, please!’

Plainclothes “ICE” agents snatch a man outside Los Angeles’ largest courthouse on Wednesday. A tactic that has been repeatedly condemned by the legal community.

Painful to watch. Even more painful knowing there are people who not only accept this, are happy about it.
