💡From a 22-year AMERICAN VETERAN’s perspective..ICE facilities should reflect the values we fought for: dignity, due process & transparency. Detention shouldn’t mean dehumanization🇺🇸🙏

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

I’m disappointed Goebbels wasn’t in the tree.

Fuel the “news” all the conservative infotainment channels wish to air.

Thanks for sharing this. Heather Cox Richardson stated old, non childbearing age, white women need to be on the front lines of all protests! I really liked what she said. I comment this because you made it clear who should protest the privileged not at risk of deportation or twisted headlines to

This regime is testing the waters with Illinois. I hope there is a massive pushback letting them know this will not work. We know they won’t stop with IL & Oregon. Wild times we are living through.

Physically protesting there are many other ways to do it. We must all use every form of protest including our elected leaders.

Also, they must use their power to make a stand. Not just their words & interviews but they must ACT! Just as we all must act! There is more to protesting than just holding a sign,though I hope all that can will on Oct 18, use every form of protest to protest daily. I hear you but along with

The Fairness Doctrine that the FCC utilized from 1949 until 1987 ensured there would be balance in broadcasting. It’s gone now. Honestly, there is no 2 sides when one is running AI videos or airing riots from other countries & saying it’s Portland.

Yes protests work but our leaders must protest

President Caligula is going to declare martial law no matter what! He doesn’t need something to happen to do it. He’s making shit up to declare martial law it’s his end goal. Probably why he said on campaign trail, vote for me this time & you’ll never have to vote again. (Or something like that)

How in TF does one carry citizenship papers? Carry a passport? Less than half of Americans even have a passport.

Got President Caligula calling for the arrest of his political opponents for failing to protect his ICEstapo goons.
The constituents don’t matter he wants his goons protected FIRST! 🤡

Special counsel for the DOJ, Jack Smith, who was working 2 investigations regarding DJT bought his lunch daily at Subway. Subway has many lunch deals with a cookie included!

Jack Smith had no reason to stick his hand in a cookie jar he was bright enough to get a cookie with his lunch! 😊

Just Jack @just-jack-1.bsky.social · 2d

By all means, indict Jack Smith on bullshit allegations and give him the trial that SCOTUS denied him.

Poke the bear, Donnie. See what happens.

Me too! Thanks for letting me know I’m not the only one! 🤣

Haven’t received my ballot yet! My counties
Board of Supervisors tried to pass a resolution supporting a No vote on Prop 50! 🙄
They pulled the resolution today. Yes, I’m in a deep red county in California!

Hope I get my ballot soon. I’ll vote YES & drop it in the drop box! #YesOnProp50

I normally skip the intro of every show I watch.

Murders in the Building though I let it play every time. I enjoy the intro music for that show.

I think the mask of what 🇺🇸 actually is is being dropped. It’s always been this way but we’ve swept it under the rug. Just study our history Reconstruction Act & the turbulent times during the fight to get the Civil Rights Act of 1964 passed. Never did get the ERA passed. Our hate is on full display

That’s wild. I just scheduled an appt for a Covid vaccine on my pharmacy app. Went right in & got the vaccine. I’m 55 in California. They say the vaccines may go quickly but in my deep red county I doubt many of my neighbors will get it. Lots of people have Covid rn here. Glad I got the vaccine.

Wow! Wells Fargo absolutely sucks! If you didn’t know before you ought to know, without a doubt, now!

The recent ICE raid which emptied an entire apartment building was apparently at the request of Wells Fargo, which is trying to foreclose on the building.

The building is in a 27 million dollar foreclosure filed by Wells Fargo. The next day, Wells Fargo filed an emergency motion for receivership. The fascist regime kindly emptied the building for donor Wells Fargo.
