ICE is not about immigration. ICE is about normalizing a paramilitary force on peaceful streets. Abolish ICE.

We are literally at the point in history where the Pope is battling the Antichrist. 🍿

National Geographic Award winning photograph of the year. So beautiful. 🐝🐝🐝

So pro-life means jailing women who miscarry but shrugging when the deranged president says “a whole civilization will die tonight.” Do I have that right?

Facts spoken by an ex-trumper...

Ice needs to be abolished

It is important to acknowledge who is standing up and who is just trying to get by. Every day Americans are standing up while the powerful are mostly standing by. Why aren't law firms standing up and sending lawyers to Minneapolis. Why aren't the corporations speaking out? Why isn't the media?

Our political scale has been propagandized by capitalism to make basic empathy a radical political ideology. But it's not. The entire barometer is off & a dangerous sociopathy has been the norm for way too long. That's how we got here: being conditioned not to care about others.

You have to see this. PoliticsGirl and her husband teamed up with the brilliant Timothy Snyder (author of On Tyranny) and the legendary John Lithgow to create something truly powerful. It’s important, it’s urgent—and it needs to be shared far and wide.
