De Niro has it right. The American people can agree on some things after all.
Tweet by Acyn quoting Robert De Niro criticizing war, rising prices, deportations, and government violence, saying Americans did not vote for these outcomes. The image shows De Niro speaking in a studio interview setting.

The Trump administration’s attempt to roll back hard-won labor protections for home care workers lays bare how far they’re willing to go to weaken systems of care. More than 3 million caregivers — the overwhelmingly female, majority-Black and Brown workforce who help older adults and people with disabilities live with dignity — could lose federal minimum wage and overtime rights if this proposal moves forward. This isn’t just policy — it’s a threat to care workers’ economic security and the seniors and families who depend on them. We know care work is REAL work, and it deserves respect, fair pay, and protections, not rollback.Read more with the link in our bio.

Right now, Congress is negotiating new guardrails for ICE in the Department of Homeland Security budget bill. We have a short window of time to tell them to block ICE from going into schools, hospitals, and places of worship. Write today! social.redwine.blue/s/Xx7X5jky

In some weird way he has managed to create a common vernacular across the planet. No quotes needed on he. We just know. What stupid s*** did he do today? Is he still alive? Did he wander off today? We all just know.
