SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

We tried to vote our way out. Remember, we elected Obama, who ran on wealth inequality. But we were fooled. It was already too late. Obama pacified us with the Republican version of healthcare and called it Obamacare, bailed out the banks, then oversaw Citizens United. Fight, leave, or acquiesce.

So if the rich doesn’t get more tax cuts the working class is going to suffer? Bullshit! Trickle down economics has been a ruse for 40+ years with no benefit to the working class. I hope those who voted for this are ok with losing benefits to pay for rich’s tax cuts. MAGAts please wake TF up.
