Did #Arkansas farmers think #Trump would care for them when he's NEVER cared for working people? B4 becoming POTUS, he was sued many times for not paying or honoring contracts with workers. While #farmers struggle, Trump's getting richer in the #CryptoMarket. Who's #Woke now

#Trump Executive Order, “Ending Crime and Disorder on America’s Streets,” is part of an ongoing effort to criminalize homelessness by reviving vagrancy laws. Homelessness, however, is not a crime. It’s a product of a country’s policies, many of which should be criminalized
