This explains why we have ICE kidnappings at all. Why they’re focused on numbers. Why it’s so racist. It explains verything. And by the way, the same applies to tech, construction, medical work etc. This is why American labor has been replaced for decades. Simply put, we’re not enough of a slaves.

@peters.senate.gov new report found that DOGE put YOUR sensitive data at risk. Whistleblowers say that because information was uploaded to an unsecured server, it could be hacked – and every American could need to be issued a new Social Security number.

And you'll be thrilled to know that DHS has brought their propaganda and lack of professionalism over to Bluesky as of today. Ugh 😫

If free health care for life is good enough for all of our politicians, then it should be good enough for all of its citizens also!

NATIONAL HEALTHCARE FOR THE PEOPLE.

No one should be denied medical services recommended by a doctor.

Taking on monopolies is a necessary precondition to minimizing the corrosive effects of big money on our politics, which in itself is an urgent step to saving our democracy.

Illinois State Troopers keep beating protesters. I don’t know if he is.

Eric, why are we not trying to gain 20 or 50 seats instead of 5? All republican states are now doing the same shyte as Texas. We support them all with our taxes, we have as much population as half of them together and yet only 2 senate seats. Is this another one of pretend opposition games?

Sure, it would be ok if we’ve had tax payers funding alone for elections. We don’t. We have rich fcuks buying our politicians. It’s not election anymore, it’s an auction.

Phang: His case is like several others, and yet I feel like, in some ways, it’s worse. To be wrongfully convicted of a crime you never committed—to serve more than 40 years in prison for it—is horrific. The man has had his life stolen from him. And now, Trump’s administration wants to deport him.
