Watch every second of this.
Our worst fears are here. With Trump’s new bill, the police state is no longer looming—it’s official.
Expect more raids on a massive scale, shattered families, and a brutal crackdown on humanitarian protections.

Israel is starving Gaza and shooting into crowds of desperate, hungry people on a daily basis. Children are dying of hunger on a daily basis. It's a moral atrocity and it's all funded by American dollars.
