Freedom Riders, a 🧵 (1/4):

Huge shout out to AL House Reps Terri Sewell and Shomari Figures. They are demanding that the GSA buildings housing the Freedom Riders Museum & Montgomery bus depot be kept in order to preserve American and civil rights history. ⬇️

🧵 1/2 Pls amplify the latest civil rights disgrace by Regime 2.0:

Rep Terri Sewell, AL-7 (FB):

“Elon Musk & his DOGE bros have ordered GSA to sell off the site of the historic Freedom Riders Museum in Montgomery.

This is outrageous & we will not let it stand!…

The building housing the historic Freedom Riders Museum appears to be part of a DOGE-ordered sell-off of federal properties.

The President is lying about Social Security as an excuse to gut Social Security after promising not to touch it.

Why? To pave the way for more tax cuts for the rich.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.

What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

All of the Republicans who for years railed about "unelected bureaucrats" destroying the government are awfully quiet as an unelected bureaucrat destroys the government.

Trump didn't win 50% of the popular vote.

The GOP has slim margins in both the House and Senate.

His approval ratings are tanking.

He does not have a mandate.

Do not let him gaslight you into believing he is all powerful.

He's not.

Make no mistake: President Trump wants to walk back decades of U.S. progress, and he’s using Executive Orders to enforce his agenda. #SOTU

Although many of these orders are expected to face legal challenges, they aim to weaken our #civilrights.

“If those who speak Spanish as their second language are included, then the U.S. is the second-largest Spanish-speaking country in the world after Mexico.”

By ending Spanish-language communications, the White House ignores U.S. demographics. A #linguistics professor explains:
Making English the official US language can’t erase the fact that the US has millions of Spanish speakers and a long multilingual history
Trump’s campaign produced campaign materials in Spanish to reach more voters. Now that he’s president, his White House is going English-only.

Baby-boomer peers:

They are destroying your 401Ks and taking away your Social Security.

Is that enough - finally - to turn you against the GOP forever? To go out and protest in the streets?

There was just a local news DC story about the pain of the Trump recession, inflation, and stock market crash.

A woman said she voted for Trump for "social" reasons while sobbing that her retirement fund was being destroyed - seeming to indicate that she'd VOTE FOR HIM AGAIN.

At tonight’s State of the Union, Trump will have one goal: to distract.

His policies are wreaking havoc on the economy and upending American lives, and he will lie, blame, and distract to avoid any bit of responsibility. Don’t fall for it.

2 lies I hear from the right about the federal government:

"The federal government has gotten so bloated!"

The federal government is the same size it was when Kennedy was president.

"Reagan was the last president to cut the federal government!"

There were MORE fed employees when he left office.
