This is not just a current political issue. Charging & punishing these particular perpetrators is vital to keeping the fight against the ongoing abuse & killing of women & children by men in the spotlight. "Me Too" was only a start.

Democrats should be drawing up legislation right now, this very minute, to bar Trump from helping himself to $230 million in taxpayer funds from DOJ. Challenge Republicans to hold a vote on it. Push this so hard in the media that every GOP Senate and House candidate is pressed to comment on it.

I spent my senior year of hs in a special program at a Veterans Hospital. I was 17.

We had to do volunteer work that aligned with our future career choice.

Mine was physical therapy.

Imagine being 17 in a dark, damp basement of the VA hospital trying to play catch with men without limbs. 😔

Clearly Trump lied when he said his $250 million ballroom wouldn’t “interfere” with the White House.

So who’s watching this mess; the White House Historical Association or the Office of the Curator? Because someone needs to make sure he’s not bulldozing history for a dance floor.

Democratic combat veterans fired back at Rep. Perry. Rep. Pat Ryan dared Perry “to say that to me in person.” Rep. Chris Deluzio said he’s not interested in a lecture on patriotism from anyone who was part of the “plan to overthrow the 2020 election.”

Secretary of State Marco Rubio colluded with El Salvador’s Bukele to secretly deport and imprison Latino informants - without due process - in notorious prisons. The deal helps Bukele mask his human rights abuses.

Again - don't do things that Nazis do.

Like have American flags with swastikas in the background while on an official call for an elected official.

Then later claim you were "targeted" and that the flags are "optical illusions" . 🙄

This is exactly why ICE needs to be unmasked and ID’d — like cops.

📌 Cases of ICE impersonators this year alone outnumber the last four presidential terms combined.

Donald Trump is breaching the Constitution and breaking the law.

A show of force so he can militarize our cities because of the 2026 elections.

We need to stand up together and speak up.

THE CHICKENS ARE FINALLY COMING HOME TO ROOST

Ryan Walters is out & the investigation floodgates just opened. The Oklahoma AG launched a full audit of Walters’ entire tenure as Superintendent, and it’s about damn time.

Also the education dept website’s being scrubbed of his culture-war nonsense.

“Only detainees were hit.”

That’s how the government erases people with no charges, snatched off the street without warrants.

The injured and killed detainees “don’t count” - ICE agents were cast as the victims instead.

Complete erasure.
I'm struggling to contain my anger over the government's handling of the ICE shooting in Dallas - specifically, the refusal to publicly identify three human beings who were killed or seriously wounded

These monsters do everything possible to dehumanize refugees. We can't let them get away with it
