Ice agents crashing into US citizens then forcibly detaining them.

They don’t know how to hold guns. They clearly don’t have any training. They obviously aren’t following the laws.

This is embarrassing for our country and dangerous for our citizens.

USA Same Sex Marriage Protections in State Constitutions Currently

All those red states instantly ban same-sex marriage if(when) the Supreme Court over-turns the ruling legalizing same-sex marriage. Just so you know.

Also... kinda surprised by Oregon.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

The President wants to use the military to crack down on Americans who are exercising their 1st Amendment rights to oppose him. I can’t think of a better reason to insist on exercising those rights.

You’ve probably heard but I have been federally indicted by Trump’s DOJ.

We now have to cover the costs of a campaign *and* a legal battle to preserve our First Amendment rights.

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

Donald Trump is telling his DOJ to prosecute people involved in defeating him in 2020. He will claim the 2025 California referendum was fraudulent. He is going to try to impose voter ID and ban mail-in and early voting for 2026.

I will do everything I can in the courtroom and in public to stop him.

That’s not propaganda. That’s a policy position. It is being proven today as an accurate position.

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

The federal government is attempting to cover up Trump’s murders with lies. Just another day in the USA.

Google has not only run fast into doing evil (despite their old charge) they have also purposefully made their products bad to make more money. Now would be a good time for alternatives to make loud pushes into the market like an Android alternative if you wanted a toe-hold in the market
