“Immigrant rabble” have been cleaning American toilets and building American bridges and homes and picking American’s food for centuries.
This man is a racist, period.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

Keep taking videos of what ICE is doing. @govpritzker.illinois.gov is right, document what’s happening. This is why they hate journalists so much.

If you allow a government to break the law because of an “emergency”, it will create an emergency to break the law.

Hitler had Mein Kampf, Trump has Project 2025. Written plans.
As R Bitecofer says, “Hitler sold peace as he armed for war. Trump sells patriotism as he prepares to dismantle democracy”.
No one listened to Churchill’s warnings until all he could offer was this👇
We better listen‼️

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.
Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.
Do not.

Racism is when you believe a white guy is innocent after a jury has concluded 34 times that he isn’t, and you immediately decide an immigrant is guilty when the immigrant hasn’t even had a chance to present their defense.

Toxicologist here! This will improve the health of zero Americans. Current synthetic food dyes are not causing health problems, and are often times used because they are actually safer than natural food dyes. Reminder that guns are the #1 cause of death of children but we are going to ban food dyes.
BREAKING: The FDA has officially announced they will be banning artificial dyes in the food supply by the end of 2026
This includes Red 40, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Blue 1, Blue 2, Green 3

There is an entire political movement that believes the statement “if you work full-time in America, you should be able to pay your bills and have a savings account with your paycheck” is radical.
We must come to an agreement that it’s not radical to demand that.

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.

One thing I wish people understood about authoritarianism is life often looks more or less the same. Troops aren’t marching down the street every day; people go to restaurants, have their office jobs. But everyone knows that stepping out of line, even slightly, can derail your life with no recourse

Talk of disappearing anyone into gulags in El Salvador is an affront to our Constitution. We need a few Republicans members to find the spine to join House Democrats in impeachment proceedings against the Fascist-in-Chief.

Your regular reminder that Republicans in Congress could put a stop to much/all of this any time they wanted. They are enabling authoritarian government.

When the “first hundred days” coverage starts, keep this in mind. FDR’s hundred days was a special session of Congress that passed legislation to enact his agenda. The story here is *not* how active the Trump administration’s been—it’s the unprecedented and unconstitutional consolidation of power.

Reminders:
"Concentration camps" aren't the same as "extermination camps." Both were/are horrific.
Most Nazi camps were *outside Germany*, away from the eyes of German citizens.
Those trains? Were to, uh, deport the category of people whose lives were deemed unimportant.
Never again is now.

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy.
Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media.
That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, and the arts – to prevent us from learning.
It's Fascism 101.
