Oklahoma is trying to become the first fascist state.
Oklahoma education leaders approved a plan on Tuesday to request proof of citizenship or immigration status from families when they enroll their children in public schools. The rule would supply the Trump administration with information to aid immigration enforcement.
Oklahoma Moves to Require Schools to Ask Students’ Immigration Status
The rule would not block undocumented students from enrolling, but it would supply the Trump administration with information to aid immigration enforcement.

BIG Selena Gomez fan! ❤️
Selena Gomez posted an Instagram video on Monday, a day after ICE said that it had made 956 arrests as part of President Trump’s crackdown on undocumented immigrants, in which she discussed the situation while crying. Here's how the post, which has been deleted, became a political talking point.

Egg prices are way up. Medicaid and cancer research are shut down.

Just what people voted for.

UGH! Keep the kids out of your fascist politics. Kids need to eat to be prepared for school. Oh, that’s right! Trump wants to keep them DUMB!
BROWN: Would you support getting rid of school lunch for vulnerable kids and getting rid of childhood cancer research?

REP. MCCORMICK: Philanthropy is where you get most of your money for childhood cancer research. When you talk about school lunches, hey, I worked my way through high school.

This is what they do. “Float” ideas to see the backlash. Normalize crazy talk.

We warned them. ANY immigrant is suspect to this administration. We knew this was coming. 💔
No doubt that unimaginable cruelty awaits undocumented immigrants. Trump surrogates will deflect accusations of bigotry by saying Trump is merely fulfilling his mandate for law and order.
But next time you hear that, remember how he treats the foreigners who do follow the law.

My stomach is churning right now as I’m reviewing images for my floor speech this afternoon on the violent felons Trump pardoned.

Here’s David Dempsey beating officers with a flagpole. He got a full pardon and is being let out jail.

We can’t let this feel normal.

Another school shooting. On the day that Trump eliminated the Office of Gun Prevention. Republicans DON’T CARE if your kids are shot and killed in schools. They flat out DO NOT CARE. Shameful.
Remember the victims, not the killers.

Fully 75% of immigrant farm workers didn’t show up to work the other day in Bakersfield, California because of fears of ICE raids. America’s agricultural communities will be the hardest hit from Trump’s harsh immigration policies. Food prices are going to skyrocket.

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

Written right there in the Constitution.

The President cannot change that with the stroke of a pen.

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s unwavering commitment to justice, equality, and nonviolence couldn’t be more relevant today.

California continues to honor his legacy by fostering unity, lifting up every voice, and building a brighter, more inclusive future for everyone.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.
