Everyone should have access to what they need to live with dignity. I am very liberal. Grew up in Chicago. I worked in public health. I read constantly, knit and crochet, attend protest rallies, bake stuff, and grow flowers & vegetables. No DMs please.

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head.

That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

We're not following the "rule of law": we're just being too polite. It's ok for the felon to send his posse to act as ICE agents who literally grab & hurt innocents. It's ok for him to withhold & redact 90% of the files. We sit there waiting for all the Ts to be crossed, i's to be dotted b4 we act.

The State Dept. painted humanitarian aid cuts as a necessary “disruption.”
