Say "NO" to the chaos & fear caused by ICE invading schools, churches & hospitals looking for families who are our neighbors. Immigrants are kept from their jobs & buying goods, & law enforcement disrupted from stopping actual crimes. "America first"? dlvr.it/THsjWX

I’m so tired of them. I’m tired of their lies. I’m tired of their disgusting amorality. I’m tired of their faces, their voices, their smirks. I’m tired of their inability to say — let alone do — even one thing remotely kind or humble or appropriate, ever. So tired.

@msnbc.com @cnn.com stop with this nonsense that the government is being reshaped . These are destructionists. They don't care about rebuilding. Did he have a healthcare plan when he tried to destroy Obamacare ? I rest my case your honor .

Their aim is nothing short of a new Dark Ages. Anti-science, anti-education, anti-democracy, in favor of needless human suffering. NIH cuts billions of dollars in biomedical funding, effective immediately www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

The move halts a large slice of money for most universities and research institutions virtually overnight, imperiling vital research in everything from cancer to heart disease.

Over 100 ICE agents spent 5 hrs in Chicago last week, arresting only 2. In Denver & Aurora, CO, over 400 agents were dispatched for migrant violence linked to Tren de Aragua. After knocking on hundreds of doors, only 1 member was arrested. (NYP, ABC News)

Mindset reset: Right now, brave Ukrainians are defending their land & loved ones, at the cost of their sanity, limbs & lives. It’s an existential fight for their democracy & way of life. If the Russians lose, they go home. If the Ukrainians lose, they will be overrun & destroyed. #SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦

The GOP and Terrorist Trump got their idea to use starvation as a weapon of murder against the world’s poorest children from Moscow Musk and the Nazis in Moscow. Hitler used the same tactics. Terrorist Trump and the GOP crave the death of children.
