You know me as Ruby Sue from Christmas Vacation, but now I’m a pissed off Momma ready to burn the patriarchy to the ground. 💙

Rolling Stone nailed it. The level of corruption is off the charts. Trump will go down in history as the worst, most corrupt president ever. His legacy will be greed over country. Shameful.

So let’s be clear about what happened. The president imposed illegal taxes. Families paid the price for over a year. The courts struck them down. Now businesses may get refunds, but working families almost certainly will not. And a new round of tariffs is already on the way.

Trump Administration Takes Steps to Refund $166 Billion in Tariffs
The government debuted a system to repay importers two months after the Supreme Court struck down tariffs at the heart of the president’s trade policy.

All it would take to end the murder of 🇺🇲citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach & remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public & end all of this. G Elliott Morris 5/5

If the leader of an organization is out there throwing shit at people that leader should be fired. And if the organization doesn’t fire that leader then the whole thing should get shut down. Abolishing ICE is not a radical position.

🤬🤬 The Wall Street Journal dropped a bombshell report advising that ICE agents receive "incentives" to meet a 3,000 person per day quota, a move that encourages/monetizes making false arrests.

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists. Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election. Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot. It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad. The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

This war and extra-judicial kidnapping is patently illegal and unconstitutional. Political leaders on both sides must condemn it. It’s not about whether Maduro is a tyrant but whether the US is still governed by laws and the Constitution. As if this morning, we are clearly not.

Noted Trump biographer Seth Abramson just weighed in on reports that U.S. forces launched a strike on former Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez' mausoleum. This latest stunt by the Diapered Don keeps getting worse. GOP lawmakers need to recover their spines and save us from another endless war.

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"

I respectfully disagree with the jury’s verdict in the Judge Hannah Dugan case. The trial evidence showed that Judge Dugan did not obstruct ICE agents from arresting an undocumented immigrant. Let’s see what happens on appeal. Meanwhile, our support for Judge Dugan continues.

On this day in 1955 Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat. For 381 days people boycotted the buses. They walked, carpooled and organized every single day until segregation cracked. Nothing will change today without that same resolve. Freedom isn’t granted, it's taken one step at a time. #Resist
