People are being tackled, people getting pepper sprayed or tear gassed. People getting threatened. And we've seen at least two incidents involving gunfire.

This administration overall seems more interested in heightening the tensions instead of trying to ramp them down.

Tackles, projectiles and gunfire: Many fear ICE tactics are growing more violent

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

“What’s the benefit for 🇺🇸 in sending $20 BILLION to Argentina?”🤔

Trump says he just really likes their philosophy and will only send the $20 Billion if his pal Milei wins.

Imagine not being able to see this blatant corruption for what it is. (While our farmers struggle)

Thank you, President Biden, for your relentless dedication to bringing hostages home safely. Your courage, persistence, and care for families in distress remind us of the power of leadership guided by compassion. True heroes in action."

@mtsw.bsky.social Trump being lionized for getting 20 hostages back whereas Biden got basically no credit for getting over 100 back….any idea why that might be?

While Joe Biden was president, a series of diplomatic efforts helped secure the release of more than 100 Israeli hostages, while he took no American hostages out of American cities.

Seriously Biden got more hostages freed and longer ceasefires.

Where was his adulation and Time cover?

He didn’t deserve that? Agreed.

But then without any question neither does Trump!

Jonathan M. Katz @katz.theracket.news · 1d

There were at least two ceasefires under Biden! In which more than five times as many living Israeli hostages were released in exchange for 240 Palestinians! Has everyone forgotten this?

Coffee Indiana @coffeeindiana.bsky.social · 1d

Also, ceasefires have happened under prior Presidents! The day he gets Palestine their own country he can be told he's the most special boy deserving of a shiny prize.
