This is a money grab. 💸 People don’t want immigrants to utilize tax payer funded services but there are no services for tax dollars to go to. It’s funding their pockets. #covid #vaccine #fda

What are we supposed to f*cking do? Seriously, what are we supposed to do?

Good enough parenting, I like this.

“In a time of widespread global anxiety and angst, the ability to approach the world from a place of gentleness and loving-kindness is the best thing we can offer.”

#Bukele and #Trump are in kahootz. Period. But of course he can’t say that.
Iowa voters confronted Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley over Trump’s blatant defiance of the Supreme Court and disregard for the Constitution.

The American people are rising up against the corrupt Trump regime.

Trump is defying a 9-0 Supreme Court order after kidnapping and shipping off an innocent father without due process to a foreign prison known for human rights abuses.

“Never again is now”
Reminders:

"Concentration camps" aren't the same as "extermination camps." Both were/are horrific.

Most Nazi camps were *outside Germany*, away from the eyes of German citizens.

Those trains? Were to, uh, deport the category of people whose lives were deemed unimportant.

Never again is now.

The tariffs are just a scheme to keep him and his pals rich. They never had anyone else’s interests in mind.

WOW - I Never Knew This! A Must-Watch!
Commissioned in 1865, right as the U.S. Civil War ended, the Statue of Liberty was originally designed holding broken chains in her left hand—this fact has been whitewashed from history b/c of the clear allusion to U.S. chattel slavery; the chains were replaced by the current tablet-like object. 🇺🇸

Don’t obey in advance. Pay attention. Build community. Take care of each other and the earth. Act, don’t react. Love, not hate. These are my mantras right now.

Okay… 💔 First cuts to infectious disease, mental health, and addiction treatment; now, food. It’s like they are trying to kill off “the weak.” I have no words. #HHS #Musk #Trump

Oregon food banks receive truckloads of foods like frozen chicken and pork, milk, canned and fresh vegetables and fruit from the federal government every week. But starting in April, Oregon will receive fewer of those shipments, after the Trump administration has canceled a number of deliveries.
