Presidential. Millennial. ✨IF✨ only a few decades ago, White Baby Boomers—the nation’s largest, most powerful generation—had loosened their clutch on power and wealth, ✨THEN✨ their millennial offspring [like Ossoff, AOC] and GenX offspring [like Obama, Harris] could’ve, would’ve saved this nation.

ICE-Gestapo shot a man in NYC with his 5 year old son in the back seat, then they rammed through protesters who were trying to block their vehicle from leaving the scene. I’ll say it again and again, ICE aren’t agents or law enforcement, they are terrorists, murderers and white supremacists.

Ossoff: "I think Pete Hegseth is frankly a deeply unwell person who seems to relish this kind of brutality all the while he's running a department that is falling into chaos. The guy cannot run the military competently and is spending his time with this kind of obscene medieval spectacle."

ICE is a lawless agency using your tax dollars to blatantly violate constitutional rights. They've repeatedly misrepresented their operations and refused to even keep track of when they detain citizens. Reckless and disgraceful.
