Democracy is a team sport. Suit up with me. MAGA=hate cult. Gen fucking X. If loving elite experts is wrong, I don't want to be right. Any questionable language is religious expression & a peaceful & patriotic way to illuminate satanic evil of MAGA & GOP.

It feels crazy to need to write this, but journalists should not be arrested because the president doesn’t like the way they report on the sizes of his crowds. www.mediamatters.org/donald-trump...

Trump keeps demanding criminal punishment for reporting he dislikes — including about his crowd sizes

I live in San Diego & just ran up to my local grocer for a few things. People are usually quiet. Today, they are openly & loudly talking about how Trump is encouraging Iran to wipe us from this earth. We are a large Navy & Marine city. A border city. And we are pissed! VOTE!

The government *still* isn’t tracking how often immigration agents detain U.S. citizens. We are. 500+ Americans have been handcuffed, held at gunpoint or held against their will in Trump’s second term. Our tally is almost certainly an undercount. THREAD (content warning: violence) ⬇️
