But the real crime is in oligarchs taking $170b from your healthcare and food assistance to form a secret police force.

Oh. Cool. Just as the President is using every power he can to suppress dissent and stifle speech, @whitehouse.senate.gov and the @judiciarydems.senate.gov are trying to hand Trump a new tool to suppress speech online.
