Pelosi: “The President incited an insurrection. We begged him to send the National Guard, they never sent them. This President is trying to re-write history… it was an assault on the constitution of 🇺🇸.”

If you have a billion dollars, you literally have enough money to never have to hear any criticism for the rest of your life. Just because they’re all addicted to going online and getting yelled at isn’t my fucking problem.
The perfect Yglesias post: declaring “billionaires are good, actually,” as if it was some bold, counterintuitive take.

Completely agree. What this period of history is teaching us is that we truly are a social species… there isn’t enough money and there aren’t enough resources to inoculate these people from social rejection and repudiation.

They want to eat the entire world and they want us to praise them for it.

BREAKING: A Russian newspaper today — “America no longer sees our country as a threat… The US leader’s philosophy is closer to the values of Russia’s president, not the politicians of the Old World… he sees Europe as a liberal stronghold that must be destroyed…”

Read that again.

Loser Mike Johnson hopes we forgot about extending ACA tax credits while he was on Christmas vacation.

Let’s make it very clear how wrong he is:
Tell Congress: Demand Speaker Johnson hold a vote IMMEDIATELY on the ACA tax credit extension
Contact Congress today!

There’s been a change on when your mail will receive a postmark. Until 12/24 of this year it was when you dropped off your letter. Now it’s when a machine processes your mail which could be days later. This has implications for time sensitive mail including vote by mail! There are ways around it!

4 people died in ICE detention in 4 days!

Should an immigration violation be a death sentence?

Is it worth calling Congress to tell them you don't want mass detention & immigrants brutalized&tortured?

Yes, it's the least you can do.
CALL THEM 202-224-3121.

FFS speak out about #ICELawlessness.

The U.S. has over 4,300 data centers, an industry registry shows.
Can a single data center use as much power as 5,000 homes?
Yes. A single data center can use far more than the energy needed to power 5,000 American homes, research shows.

Taking away our due process rights is dangerous. If we have no due process, the government can lie & say we're not citizens & detain us indefinitely or deport us & we have no legal recourse.

That's happening. Citizens are being detained—100s of citizens & Trump's opening 22 warehouses to put us in.

People who say we're not immigrants or we're not undocumented are naive. If they can come for one, they can come for all. On the list of hate, you could be next.

I will never surrender even one of my rights. A right can't be taken, only surrendered.

I served this country to protect rights and I am willing to die to protect my own.

Consider posting regularly about this important topic & using the
#ICELawlessness
hashtag so we can easily find your posts & maybe even creating your own posts & threads about it daily.

Or calling Congress at 202-224-3121, maybe even daily.

Due process is the legal requirement that people be given a fair & adequate legal procedure before being punished, brutalized, or deprived of life, liberty, or property.

Either everyone has it, or no one does.

Are you OK with giving up your right to due process?

Are you OK with #IceLawlessness?

Guys, Trump doesn’t care about Christians in Africa and it’s not really about the Nigerian oil.

It’s the rare earth minerals.

Nigeria has exploded in rare earth mineral production in the last couple of years. In fact, it is the number five rare earth mineral producer on the planet.

If the Epstein files have proven anything, it’s that the justice system isn’t broken; it’s working exactly as it was built to do: to shield the rich and powerful from accountability while victims are buried, ignored, or silenced.

Jeffrey Epstein, his sordid life, how he died and who helped him recruit girls to abuse is horrific to contemplate and difficult to follow. That is by design. Those in high places don’t want you to know the truth. Our president, a longtime friend of Epstein, who doesn’t want you to care.
