It's very important for our democracy that many people in this regime go to prison during the coming era of truth, reconciliation, and accountability.

Congress eliminated public media funding. At a time of deep division, public media brings us together.

To be sure, both parties have supported ICE in the past.

But Trump has given ICE more cops than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries.

This isn’t business as usual. This is a fast track to full-blown dictatorship.

Army veteran and US citizen arrested in California immigration raid warns it could happen to anyone A U.S. Army veteran arrested during an immigration raid at a California marijuana farm says he was sprayed with tear gas and pepper spray before being dragged from his vehicle on his way to work.

ICE detained a veteran and U.S. citizen for three days.

They didn’t let him contact his family or a lawyer. They didn’t let him change or shower. They didn’t give him a reason for his detention.

Under this regime, no one is safe. apnews.com/article/us-a...

This man is the personification of integrity and decency.

We all owe Stephen Colbert a huge debt of gratitude. Other celebrities and news media should take a lesson.

The overarching goal is reversing the 1960s in every way; civil rights, immigration, public media, and more.

Senate Republicans divided over looming vote to rescind $9 billion in spending β€” The Washington Post The rescissions bill to claw back funding approved for foreign aid, NPR and PBS is a top Trump priority, but some Senate Republicans have raised concerns about the cuts.

Called Rep. David Schweikert’s office to express opposition to the rescissions bill. He already voted β€œyes” on it before it went to the Senate. Call his office ASAP and tell him β€œno more cuts.” Recissions bill would cut NPR/PBS, foreign aid,

Why Does Trump Hate Sesame Street?
Why Does Trump Hate Sesame Street? YouTube video by Robert Reich

Why is Trump waging a war on public broadcasting and the Department of Education?

Because he wants us less informed, less knowledgeable, and less connected.

This attack on our minds is central to the fascist playbook. youtu.be/rEH7sF6pA4s?...

Under Reagan's tax cuts, the average tax cut for the top 1% was 68x larger than the average cut for middle-class households.

Under Bush's tax cuts, it was 16x larger.

And under Trump, 36x larger.Β 

The GOP has always governed for the privileged few.

We all need to realize there no longer is a β€œcenter”. You are either for democracy, justice and the rule of law or not.

ICE just got a 265% detention funding boost.

Palantir software is being used to create the federal government’s first national citizenship data bank.

The Trump regime is attacking naturalized citizens and birthright citizenship.

Be warned β€” Trump’s police state is here.

If anyone in this administration is talking, you should assume they are lying. Miller especially. It’s the only way to show fealty to a president who lies nonstop.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Patriotism isn't about building walls, punishing immigrants, cutting taxes for the rich, attacking the press, or dividing us by race & faith.

True patriots don't pander to divisiveness or hate. They work to confirm the "WE" in "We the People of the United States."
