Martin Luther King Jr. taught us that injustice is built into systems. Today, that system cages migrants and calls it enforcement

When politicians say ICE just needs more training or better leadership, understand what that language is doing. It isn’t stopping violence. It’s laundering it: same institution, same harm, softer words.

His 6 month old stopped breathing! HIS SIX MONTH OLD STOPPED BREATHING! A father was getting his kids out of the neighborhood because it was unsafe & ICE threw flash bangs & tear gas at his car with children & a baby inside! His 6 month old stopped breathing & all the children were hospitalized!

When I vote in 2026, I’m asking two questions: Do you stand with immigrants, and do you support dismantling and abolishing ICE? That’s it.

ICE enforces a racial hierarchy. Who gets targeted, detained, and deported is not random. It’s white supremacy with a federal budget.

We don’t need a militarized agency to manage migration. We need housing, work authorization, due process, and dignity. Abolish ICE.

Imagine calling yourself “law enforcement” while your job is hunting janitors, farmworkers, and moms on their way to work. That’s not safety. That’s state-sponsored violence.

This proposal is unconstitutional. Incentivizing people to report protected speech and advocacy is a direct violation of the First Amendment.

As a trans rights activist, I’m not intimidated by fear-based politics. History is very clear about how this kind of rhetoric ends, and I refuse to be silent about it.

It’s interesting that Chauncey Billups once openly voiced concern about Donald Trump back in 2016

Is this doing politics the right way? Or am I supposed to just calmly thank and debate the people calling my community terrorists and mass murderers?

Reminder: borders are imaginary. So are the Easter Bunny and Santa Claus.

Excluding trans people from sports is not the end—it’s the entry point. The broader agenda is social conditioning: to normalize the belief that trans people do not belong in public life, and ultimately, should not exist.

I am heartbroken to hear about Alfredo Gutierrez's passing. He was a giant in Arizona politics, a champion for immigrant rights, and a mentor to so many, including me. I offer my love and deepest condolences to his wife and family. His legacy will never be forgotten.

If death really does come in threes, just saying

You are correct, actually

Release the Epstein files.

Trump is desperate for people to stop talking about Epstein. That’s the pressure point—drive it relentlessly. Don’t get distracted by the noise about sports team names or culture war bait. Stay on the wedge.

Imagine waking up every day and choosing to be an ICE agent. You’re not protecting anyone. You’re not serving justice. You’re terrorizing working families, separating children, and weaponizing a badge to feed your ego.

Hey y’all! Ice is trying to arrest a man in phoenix, please share and amplify www.instagram.com/seneeah/live...

I’m not here to be palatable. I’m here to disrupt.

Why are authoritarians obsessed with immigrants and trans people? Because both disrupt control. Immigrants challenge borders and white identity. Trans people challenge gender roles. Fear is weaponized to justify censorship, policing, and state power — always in the name of “order.”

Authoritarianism wants me quiet. Fascism wants me to be orderly. So I’m going to be loud, gay, and unapologetically expressive. My existence is resistance.

So I logged in to check my student loans last night—it turns out that crazy communist Joe Biden erased my debt. Wild. Here I was, ready to die in debt for the economy… for President Trump.

Doctors call it the Physiology of Poverty: The stress of trying to survive every day breaks the mind and the body. That's why working class people in America live SEVEN years shorter than the very wealthy.

Uh-oh, more bad news for Tesla… Things are so bad that Elon Musk had to step in and calm employees. In an all-hands meeting, he told arsonists to “stop being psycho,” —while a new report shows Tesla owners are unloading their vehicles as fast as investors are dumping shares.

You're invited to see Bernie Sanders and AOC at Arizona State University on Thursday, March 20 at 6 pm. In Mullett Arena. If you live in AZ please repost! @briannawestbrook.com @4ourposterity.bsky.social @mutsy67.bsky.social @azmichael1976.bsky.social @ecowrites.bsky.social @stanzucker.bsky.social

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but these people are deliberately eliminating employees to dismantle everything—just so they can turn around and say, ‘Look how broken it is,’ and justify privatizing it at rock-bottom prices for billionaires. That’s the whole plan.

Rep. Lance Gooden (R-Texas) snatched the sign from Stansbury’s hands and hurled it away, silencing dissent like a true authoritarian.

Get ready to hear some absolutely unhinged shit tonight—yeehaw!

Nailed it 💅 #scamcoin

No surprise here that he mentioned Solana specifically, considering Trump Coin is built on that network. Trump is doing a classic pump-and-dump.

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

Let’s be honest: we are sleepwalking into authoritarianism.

Nazi Germany controlled media and propaganda through a highly centralized system designed to enforce ideological conformity, suppress dissent, and mobilize the population in support of Hitler’s totalitarian regime.

Strange how the president, controlling both the House and Senate, still can’t navigate the Constitution’s legislative process—authoritarianism was never fond of rules.

Obergefell v. Hodges is next. The American GOP Nazi Party is waging war on gay marriage—openly, unapologetically, and with the full force of their agenda.

Behind every corporate logo cutting diversity, equity, and inclusion lies a boardroom of white men protecting the status quo.

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.

Most Americans can’t stand Elon Musk or Mark Zuckerberg. Musk’s billionaire cosplay as a “man of the people” falls flat, with 54% holding an unfavorable view, while Zuckerberg’s corporate grip has 66% of Americans rolling their eyes. When the rich hoard power, the people see right through it.

We’ll meet their cruelty with community, their hate with solidarity. Every time they try to isolate us, we’ll strengthen our connections. Every right they take, we’ll build support systems. Every lie they spread, we’ll answer with truth—loud, proud, and unshaken.

I'm not sure if it’s just me, but Steve Bannon’s salute at CPAC today looks eerily similar to this shot of Elon Musk from a few weeks ago—and both are nearly identical to this image from the 1930s.

While the top 0.1% hoard record wealth, the bottom 50% fight for scraps. This is by design. Every dollar spent at Amazon, Walmart, or Netflix fuels their empire. I’m done contributing. No more subscriptions, fast fashion, or corporate convenience. I’m choosing people over profits. Who’s with me? ✊

Trump won, but it’s not a mandate. Only 23% of Americans voted for him. Turnout was lower than in 2020, and more people voted for someone else—or didn’t vote at all. That’s not the majority. This should be said over and over.

Your discomfort with politics won’t protect you from its consequences.

Experts warn that the president’s blatant lawlessness threatens the foundation of U.S. democracy, endangering checks and balances.
