While I won't cry too much about "some in this room going to prison", the main point he's making in this speech is that the crowd who is currently in power must move *faster* to destroy this democracy while they still have the chance. This is not good news.

71.5% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to government data.

Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.”

As Trump's regime terrorizes communities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of his biggest donors are private prison corporations.

I had to post this today b/c it always makes me think back to the holidays last year & our thoughts on “next season.” And look where we are now. :)
Thanks for the good luck charm! Thought you should see where it wound up…

No sanctions, no cease-fire, no security guarantee, but plenty of fossil fuel deals brew after Trump’s cringeworthy Putin-appeasement on Ukraine.

The concentration of American wealth has been, over the past dozen or so years, largely limited to the top 0.01 percent of American households, and half that concentration has benefited just 19 households.

That’s oligarchy.
