We don't live in the United States of America anymore. We live in Donald Trump's America; a wholly owned subsidiary of the Trump Organization.

Ouch. Got any survival tips for a poor, suffering, and now hard of hearing, mother?

Agreed. That's why I wanted to share it. I haven't heard anything more. Have you?

Well certainly, now that they are high ranking government officials, they won't continue to lie. Right?

Is that elevator longer than it is wide? Or is that just the way the picture came out?

Good morning all! Has anyone seen my weekend? Only it seems to have disappeared. 🙁

We 🦋 understand that. It's the group on X that has issues with it. They don't understand that w/o due process you can't find out who may be undocumented, documented, or a citizen.

If you want your rights to be held up you have to help make sure that everyone's are. We all have rights or none do.

If you or a loved one is taken by ICE, you can call the National Lawyers Guild federal repression hotline at 212-679-2811, for a free, privileged consultation about your rights, risks, & responsibilities, & to be connected with appropriate legal resources in your jurisdiction.

We all heard the Secretary of Drinking (sorry... Defense) say that he doesn't want rules of engagement. I'm sure the puppy killer took notes.

Here's a tip: Just do the morally right thing and STOP caring about what people think. Period.

So far so good. Just trying to keep my spirits up. One horrid news cycle at a time! How about you?

Does anyone have any factual knowledge that this is true? I mean, it wouldn't surprise me if it were. I know that ICE uses contractors but do we know where the contractors are getting their new hires from? Can anyone supply proof of this?

I just saw this on another post. Going to repost it for visibility. If this is true then ICE needs to be investigated IMMEDIATELY! Transparency is absolutely necessary. This is chilling and our local and federal officials MUST ACT NOW!

Journalists where are you? Elected officials where are you?

3 to 4 of every 10 cars on the roads in New Mexico now have out-of-state plates.

This is NOT normal. The plates come from a variety of states, but mostly Texas, Arizona, Florida, Colorado, Missouri, Indiana, Oklahoma. Many have "fleet" tags. They appear to be registered to private military
contractors.

Today, in Walmart in Albuquerque, I was in line and heard two young black men in line behind me with strong Southern accents, talking about how weird they find New Mexico. They did not know each other until that moment. They quickly bonded over the fact they both had been recruited to work for a private company contracted to ICE.

Different companies.

One said he had been offered early prison release in exchange for an agreement to do whatever ICE asked of him. The other said he was ex military and they enticed him with a huge incentive signing bonus. These were both poor men, marginalized, also fucked over by the system.

That's who they're ordering to attack us all on behalf of white billionaires. Which means that if Americans defend themselves against the coming violence, they will be killing people the administration won't miss. What we are seeing in Chicago the past 24 hours is a mere prelude. The official numbers of agents is nothing compared to the prisoners private contractors are releasing to kidnap, disappear and kill their fellow Americans. This suggests the covered faces are less about protecting the contractors and more about hiding from the public that prisoners are being used for this. Armed and set loose upon their fellow denizens on our streets. I suspect it won't be one city at a time when they begin the next phase, but everywhere at once.

If you can leave the country, leave.

Leave now.

Have you made plans to attend? Have you got your poster ready? Have you practiced de-escalation techniques? Do you have bail money & a person able to pick you up from jail?

Get prepared. Let's show this regime they can't silence us with fear, intimidation, or by using our military against us!

No Kings Rally poster. Rally on Saturday October 18th.

They gave trumpets to the children in Sunday School this morning. Not only are they delightfully loud but they are also amazingly off key. Today will be fun. I suppose this is where I give thanks to God for earplugs.

Just because you don't get your way unilaterally all the time does not make the opposition a "terror network". It's called democracy. If Stephen Miller against that he can go work in Putin's administration. Should be fun for him Putin hates the same groups & has no issues killing detractors.

He’s foaming at the mouth to go full Gestapo.

Putin could stop this at any moment. He chooses not to. Everyday he chooses fear and evil. He chooses to kill & destroy instead of to nurture & build. All dictators, autocrats, and fascists choose this path eventually.

May God bless and protect the Ukrainian people.

It’s a strange thing to sit awake at night, watching the clock tick, waiting for missiles you know were launched to arrive.

You don’t know where they’ll land, or who they’ll kill. But they will land. And someone will lose this deadly lottery we are forced to play.

Everyone knows dad controls the thermostat. So maybe MAGA & Jesse Waters should look to their "Daddy Trump" for temperature regulation. 🖕

The people who’ve been calling you baby murderers your whole life want you to turn down the temperature.

Snowflake babies scared of women with cameras & people with different shades of skin. Super manly. They should be arrested for kidnapping, theft, & child endangerment at least. But of course that won't happen. We have a despotic king using his personal army to terrify the people. #Impeach47now
