It is disgusting that Jacob Helberg contributed to MAGA. I grew up in Toledo with Jacob's uncle, Sandy (whose son is actor Simon Helberg). Jacob's grandparents, Sam & Tonia Helberg, were concentration camp survivors & friends of my parents (also camp survivors). bsky.app/profile/wake...
We tried the carrot. Here’s the stick.
#ICE is ramping up attacks against immigrants and American citizens— and #Palantir is their surveillance backbone.
Go to www.purgepalantir.com/the-palantir-payroll/ for the list of dirty politicians trading our rights for Palantir $$$ — then call them out.

The existence of Trump teaches us a very important lesson...even God can make mistakes. So if you happened to vote for Trump, that mistake is dwarfed by the mistake that God made in bringing Trump to life. We need to forgive those who voted for Trump and give them some grace.

Court-ordered fines and fees hit those who can’t pay hard. Monitoring of unpaid debts can last for years. “Failure to Appear in Court” is a frequent charge against the unhoused arrested by the LAPD. As City Attorney, I will end the practice of the criminalization of poverty. 1/2
