Another afternoon getting some vitamin D and hanging out with other overpass patriots. Trolling our congressman who vote for policies that hurt our communities. They both get millions in ag subsidies too.

It was worth the four hour drive to LA to listen to @maddow.bsky.social and 2 sets of panelists connecting her new podcast Burn Order about Japanese Imprisonment to current ICE raids, desire to end birthright citizenship and more. My dad loved Rachel and I was thinking of him all day today.

If you kidnap and disappear a 4-year-old with stage 4 cancer, you should at a minimum spend the rest of your life behind bars. If you do it as part of an ethnic cleansing program, you should do your hard time at the Hague.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Little red Kings County CA had about 150 concerned residents out today since Rep Valadao CD22 and Rep Fong CD 20 won’t talk to us or try to do what is right in Congress. So proud of many who protested for the first time.

Migrants are being deported to countries they aren't from. Families swept up in raids and children denied lawyers. Immigrants with no criminal convictions sent to Guantanamo Bay. Trump's anti-immigrant agenda of chaos and cruelty is on full display.

Donald Trump firing ~7000 IRS workers will mean three things: 1) More tax loopholes for the ultra-wealthy and big corporations 2) More debt, since IRS agents collect a lot more than they cost 3) Fewer ways to go after big tax cheats A great day to be a billionaire in America.

It is time, and I am so exhausted saying this, that a lot of white folk acknowledge that the majority of your skinfolk embrace everything you stand against. It was never the messaging. They weren’t confused. They weren’t coerced. They weren’t fooled. They wanted wrath.

Democrats slam Trump for not making good on promise to ‘immediately’ lower food prices
“During your first week of office you have instead focused on mass deportations and pardoning January 6 attackers,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren and 19 other lawmakers told the president in a letter.

This is an amazing quote, from a Jan 6 prisoner who is refusing Trump’s pardon. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
*_
Pam Hemphill said she planned to refuse Trump's pardon.
(PHOTO: KYLE GREEN FOR WSJ)
Pam Hemphill, of Idaho, who served 60 days in prison after pleading guilty to misdemeanor charges, said she planned to refuse the presidential pardon."It'd be an insult to the Capitol Police and the rule of law, and to our nation," she said. "I pleaded guilty because I was guilty. I don't want to be a part of contributing to them trying to rewrite history-that January 6 was not an insurrection. It was, it was a riot. And I think taking a pardon is like a message that what happened that day was OK."

Prep for ICE raids: even though it may say “Police” on their uniforms, Immigration and Customs Enforcement are not police officers, and ICE “warrants” are not reviewed by a judge, and therefore do not meet the 4th Amendment requirements for entry into a home or place of business.
