this is still my take on the Epstein files destroying what’s left of Bill Clinton, by the way

ICE continues to assault, harass, & harm Americans. In Minneapolis, incompetent tax payer funded ICE hit a pedestrian & pepper sprayed civilians from their vehicles.

This happened after ICE decided to go up & down a street demanding to see people's IDs, caused chaos & injuries, & then left.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

U.S. made guns are driving the violence that causes people to flee their countries, and guns are used to terrorize immigrants here in the U.S. And now a shooting by an immigrant is being used as a reason to further terrorize immigrants.

We can’t talk about immigration without talking about guns. 1/

So men SUPECTED of drug smuggling are bombed in their fishing boats & migrants FALSELY ACCUSED of being in a drug gang are sent to CECOT w/o due process.

BUT former Honduran President who was CONVICTED of smuggling 400 TONS of COCAINE into the U.S. is PARDONED BY TRUMP⁉️

Confused. Are drugs bad?

The horrific shooting of National Guard members is not an excuse to increase their presence against local rule, community sentiment & a pending court order. Public safety results from data driven policies-not a reactionary show of force from the executive.

On the eve of the vote to release the Epstein files and (hopefully) end the silence, a lot of reporters stayed silent when one of their female peers was called Piggy by the president.

We can’t end violence against women unless a whole lot more people are willing to speak up when they see it.

Occurs to me that whether you think Marjorie Taylor Greene should be welcomed into The Tent or not depends on whether you think the fight is against a fascist movement or against one particular very bad man.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been disliked by the left for years and years and had never had to fear for her life. She's been disliked by the right for 1 day and now has to hire security.

A Charlotte man was stopped twice by ICE. The first group checked his ID and let him go. Minutes later, another set of agents rolled up, smashed his window, dragged him out, and assaulted him

He was a U.S. citizen…

Democratic organizers did our fucking part. We gave Democrats a clean sweep on Tuesday so Chuck Schumer have leverage to negotiate.

Instead, either because of malice or sheer fucking incompetence, he is letting his caucus fold like fucking cowards.

I've been boycotting Spotify since last January, when they changed their payment structure to be worse for artists. I love to see this!
Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going!

Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists.

We made it easy at boycottspotify.com.
