THIS IS US NOW.
"She said she repeatedly told the agents she’s a U.S. citizen.

“I just kept repeating it — I’m a U.S.-born citizen. I was born and raised here. This is my home. My baby’s waiting for me...”

She screamed “Leave me alone...”

We are a nation of killers. More more more money for the rich; the rest of us can be bombed, starved, incarcerated, exploited, f$cked and die.

This breaks me into little pieces. What is wrong with us???? Why isn't nature enough??
TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

Listen to Bill. He never swears, uses better words. But this moment in time calls for it. Listen and do what he says.
I swear maybe once a decade in public, and this is the moment. This fucking racist and all the gibbering racists nodding along behind him are the ruination of our country. Our fucking job for the next fucking year is to fucking destroy them in the next election. Fuck them.
Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

"Death Cult Leader's Death Panel decides to inflict major death on babies." As a nurse who has seen what hepatitis does to folks, i advise all mothers to request that shot at birth. This regime is trying to kill our babies. Actually, they are culling the herd and We The People are allowing this.
Flagging: RFK Jr.'s vaccine panel just voted to do away with the universal hepatitis B birth dose recommendation — fulfilling a longtime priority of the anti-vaccine movement.

This Senator gets it. 👇👇
This is totalitarianism. Not rule of law democracy. And everyone who excused thus is potentially signing this nation’s death warrant.
The woman in medical scrubs, who was a U.S. citizen, was yanked from her car and wrestled to the ground by federal immigration agents in a Key Largo traffic stop Wednesday before she was released.

THIS IS US NOW.

What We The People ALLOW will continue.
Inside ICE Detention: Stripped, Shackled, Starved

Overcrowded facilities, poor medical care, and deaths in custody.

Systematic violations of civil and constitutional rights.

What are you still waiting for, America?

ICE continues to kidnap people & use violent tactics!

Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars.

She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

Living this as a teenager, watching my aging parents and older siblings suffer through it, was horrid. They were bewildered and betrayed just like we are now. You will NEVER catch me voting Republican, for any reason. Nope. KNOW YOUR HISTORY.

Chilly, still, sunny morning here in SE Kansas. The squirrels love my bird feeding platform!😂 After a while they leave and the birds come back. Can someone please leak or release the Epstein files today? THX

Back in the #warmth of September, this squirrel would sploot in the cool watered dirt of this miniature rosebush. Thank you #BlueskyArtShow for the memories.

Truth here.👇👇👇
The guardsman who was killed in DC wasn’t from DC

The person who killed her wasn’t from DC

Trump brought them together

Beautiful muted colors of a chilly sunrise in SE Kansas. Please quit being distracted by his consequential soap opera, Folks. Priorities are ICE, Epstein files, BOYCOTT and eventually a General Strike. Hope you find joy in solidarity against the rich.

Q: “Are you affirming you think Trump is a fascist?”

TRUMP: “That’s ok, you can just say yes.”
