This is not America.
It's not Christianity either.
LOOK AT THIS SHIT: ICE smashed someone’s windows, yanked them out, and then arrested the United States citizen who filmed it.

That’s not “immigration enforcement.”
This government is out here punishing witnesses.

Fascism is HERE.

BREAKING: Protesters are posted up outside the Milwaukee federal courthouse to back Judge Hannah Dugan, who’s facing arraignment.

They’re not quiet. They’re not passive. They’re saying loud and clear: the system is on trial today, not her.

Pretty simple rule of thumb when wondering why the Trump administration does anything is to ask two questions:

1) is it racist?

Or

2) are they stupid?

Happy MLK Jr. Day, my friends. In 1968, Dr. King spoke the following words, which are equally true today:

"The nation is sick. Trouble is in the land; confusion all around.... But I know, somehow, that only when it is dark enough, can you see the stars."

We must find & feed the points of light.

If you’re feeling despair today, I understand.

But Trump’s second term will expose a reality that's been hidden from many Americans: the raw, stinking power of the American oligarchy.

I’m hopeful that America will see this reality for what it is and respond to it. youtu.be/bepjl3orz1A?...
