He’s in 3rd grade. Same age as my son.
ICE knocked on the wrong door.
No crime. No reason.
He was handcuffed. Detained.
He’s 8 years old.
This should shatter you.
It should enrage you.
No matter your politics, NO ONE should be okay with this.

When social media exposes traditional media’s deceit, it’s time for independent journalists to investigate why the press is backing a president who undermines free press—and is it coordinated?
The dumbest people who have ever existed are running the country
"Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared." Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

The #SupremeCourt has been stacked, illegitimate, & corrupt for years.
Harlan Crowe & Clarence Thomas - a good place to start with why.

Learning is a form of rebellion. Read, learn, educate yourself. The people in power want you to be dumb so that you're more susceptible. This is the most important thing you can do right now.
Reading, learning, and thinking are acts of rebellion in a society that profits on keeping us ignorant, placid consumers.
