Below the tweet, there is a nested tweet from penguinsagainsttrump, posted 2 hours ago, which says: "What are you gonna do, deport us? We’ve been dealing with ICE for centuries." The nested tweet includes a profile picture of a penguin on the left.

Yes, because what's holding the US back from greatness is our lack of "wood independence". 🙄 Logging these >100 year old trees will be disastrous for climate.

Trump administration orders half of national forests open for logging
An emergency order removes protections covering over half the land managed by the U.S. Forest Service as the president aims to boost timber production.

We have to stop dividing our problems into “left and right" and start seeing our problems like “top vs bottom.” 737 billionaires in the U.S. have a combined wealth of 5.5 trillion. And they funneled it out of the middle class. Then Trump keeps us fighting with each other while they steal more.
The propaganda of political division gives the illusion that it’s possible to punish the opposite party and not your own. As if there are two Americas and we can target our enemies to hurt only them. It’s a damn shame it will take Trump hurting all of America for some to find out we were never separate groups in the first place. Quote by Melissa Nadia Viviana

Now that I am finished screaming into the void about schooling for kids with disabilities being assigned to RFK: understand what this means. He’s lumping accommodations into HHS, meaning those needs are now considered medicalized. Different from everyday education. This is eugenics.

You know how Trump says that people have been wanting to abolish the Department of Education for a long time? Well, that's true of *some* people...like the very far right Christian Coalition who in 1995 put abolishing the Dept. of Ed on their list of top 10 priorities.

Religious equality: End "hostility" toward faith by allowing religious expression in public places.
Respect for life: End late-term abortions, where allowed; permit states to refuse to use tax funds for abortion, and end tax support to organizations that promote or perform abortions.
Crime restitution: Require prisoners to work, pass literacy and drug tests, and pay compensation to crime victims and their families.
Education control: Abolish The
Department of Education and transfer money and decision - making to school boards, local educators and parents.
School choice: Give public money to parents to allow choice of public or private schools.
Parents' rights: Free parents from increasinggovernment "interference" in bringing up their children.

During World War II, the U.S. government forcibly took hundreds of thousands of people of Japanese ancestry from their homes and held them in incarceration camps. Fred Korematsu was arrested and convicted for defying the government’s order and refusing to go to the camps.
Graphic with a quote that reads “‘Fears and prejudices directed against minority communities are too easy to evoke and exaggerate, often to serve the political agendas of those who promote those fears.’ — Fred Korematsu, civil rights activist”
On the graphic is a photo of Fred Korematsu in his old age, a Japanese man smiling at the camera wearing the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

United States-born children are citizens and no executive order can change that. We’ll fight to ensure birthright citizenship remains the law of the land.

Actually, the 14th Amendment still exists
Trump signed an executive order purporting to rewrite birthright citizenship. That's not how the Constitution works.
