"Terrible things are happening outside.
At any time of night and day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes....
Families are torn apart...
Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared...
Everyone is scared."

so crazy to me that a woman asked trump if he has any words for epstein's victims and he said "you as a young woman should smile more." it will go nowhere bc republicans refuse to hold trump accountable, but it's still pretty crazy.

That's our democracy being stuffed into ICE vehicles at gunpoint.
happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Unenforced law is meaningless.
A lawless America is a fascist police state.
I don't believe it's too late, but we're running out of time.

Therein lies the problem. ICE is terrorizing Los Angeles, and local police are choosing not to enforce the law banning masked federal agents.
This is how trust collapses.

This 10,000-year-old supernova remnant is known as the Garlic Nebula. My photo is how it appeared 10,000 years ago. It's estimated to be 100 light-years in diameter. 😎
