Removing a monument honoring Black US soldiers has nothing to do with DEI. It’s erasure of history and it’s straight-up racism.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Want a great slogan for midterms?
"If you FAFO and are struggling because of Trump policies, we understand. The Dems are here for you. Tell us how we can help you "
You get the point.
FAFO will be the theme. Be the solution.

Sergeant Gonell @sergeantaqgo.bsky.social sent me this picture. This is his call log. Each call is an automated Dept of "Justice" notification saying "The defendant you testified against is being released from the dept of corrections."

The entire MAGA Playbook is to provoke a reaction and then claim the victims or too sensitive (snowflakes) or it was a joke. Rather than be outraged, don’t take the bait and simply laugh in their faces for being the stupid little bullies that they are. They can’t lead. They can only oppose.
