Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

Trump keeps stealing money from the government to bolster his political prospects. It should be seen as a crime spree not legitimate actions of an American government.

As the mom of four daughters, I can’t stand the thought of my daughters having fewer rights and opportunities than I did. That’s why I’m fighting for reproductive freedom, access to affordable housing and healthcare, and expanding opportunities for the middle class.

Gone are the mass raids and militarized metro operations. Gone are the pomp and pageantry. But ICE arrests have hit record levels. ICE operations are no longer concentrated in large American cities. Immigration enforcement officials are also working in suburban and rural areas, all across the US.
