The Trump admin has caused untold pain and suffering to innocent people seeking a better life in America. Coming to the US once filled people with hope and relief, now it surely elicits dread and fear. This must always be tied to Trump’s legacy

Heartbreaking and infuriating. And worth remembering when Fox News personalities joke about being Nazis, the systematic destruction and devastation visited upon Eva, her family, and millions of others was carried out by Nazis. It’s not funny and it shouldn’t be platformed

If you have friends or family who are like, “I don’t really understand this white supremacy thing,” show them this unhinged pic posted by our fricken government. It should replace the definition of “white supremacy” in the dictionary

A romanticized painting titled New Life in a New Land by Morgan Weistling, depicting a young white pioneer family inside a covered wagon. The mother cradles a newborn baby while the father, wearing a wide-brimmed hat, lovingly gazes at them. Outside the wagon, a bright landscape shows open plains, distant mountains, and another covered wagon in the background. The image is accompanied by a tweet from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (@DHSgov) that reads: “Remember your Homeland’s Heritage. New Life in a New Land – Morgan Weistling.”
