I just wrote a @theactionnet letter: Turn Up the Heat: Melt The Companies That Profit From ICE and DHS. Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/tu…
No wonder the drop in U.S. religiosity is among the largest in the world!

@RepClayHiggins was the single House vote against releasing the Epstein files. Here’s @FRCdc awarding his service to Faith, family, and freedom.
ICE plans to invade churches over the holidays--please spread the word so clergy and parishioners can prepare for this hideous armed invasion of places of worship. thisweekinworcester.com/excl…
I read @Chuck99to1's new book #BurnedByBillionaires. It's an incisive must-read account of how we are all being hurt by those with excessive wealth, also providing hard-won wisdom about what can be done to unrig the system before they wreck our world. burnedbybillionaires.com
Everyone who hates tyranny should be standing with NY Attorney General Letitia James

What Trump posted is sacrilegious, disrespectful & offensive.
But I won’t post a picture of him, I will post a picture of the truly great man the world recently lost, and is still mourning.
God Bless 🙏 Pope Francis

Trump post memes about being the Pope because he doesn't actually respect Christians, at all. You're just more suckers and losers to him

The USA is a fucking joke — a joke that will get millions killed if we don’t course correct NOW!
This post is a massive insult to Catholics, Pope Francis’ family, friends & devotees, and to the present conclave.
Only thing potentially accurate is that Trump is a sexual molester — but we can set that Vatican issue aside out of respect for those who aren’t.
Is this who you want running your country? A POS who puts golf before people AND wastes time posting stuff like this just to offend and terrorize people?
Another 9/11 will hit because this jackass can’t keep his eye on the ball — he doesn’t know what or where the ball is.

Social Security offices closing down, economy in a tailspin, and your 401k is up in smoke. They know you counted on these things but they just don't care.

Trump and his un-elected Co-President Musk are taking from the American people in order to pay for billionaire tax cuts. It is gangster government.

Protesters are at a “die-in” in New York City against Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and DOGE’s cuts.
This is an awesome protest idea.

I’m back in North Dakota for closing arguments in the outrageous and secretive $300m SLAPP harassment lawsuit brought by billionaire pipeline tycoon Kelcy Warren against @Greenpeace. The case is another major corporate attack on Indigenous peoples and the climate movement. ⤵️⤵️

“Saying something obviously untrue,” said Hannah Arendt, “and making your subordinates repeat it with a straight face in their own voice, is a particularly startling display of power over them. It’s something that was endemic to totalitarianism.”

It’s important you understand this.
The people in this photo were residents of the USA that were denied due process. They were rounded up and shipped to a prison in El Salvador—without trial, without evidence—simply on suspicion of gang affiliation.
This was done in defiance of our American courts that deemed the action illegal.
They could be legal residents. They could be innocent bystanders. They could be asylum seekers. For all we know, they could be U.S. citizens.
Now, they’re trapped in one of the most violent prisons on Earth, enduring brutality beyond what most of us can imagine.
If you don’t find this morally repulsive, then you are morally repulsive.

This is the recurring nightmare that a lot of us are having. Could it be that we were shortsighted focusing on just trump? Maybe all Republicans are counting on ending elections completely + never facing consequences.

Never have I been so fired up to help you guys defeat your new tyrannical leadership. Let me say unequivocally I’m prepared to die on this hill.
JD Vance gave a speech to European leaders today that has quite literally destroyed transatlantic relations. This was a disgusting, arrogant insult to every European and British leader. It was a MASSIVE mistake that WILL hurt America.
If the intention was to wake Europe up, then mission accomplished, but he’s just blown Trump’s Ukraine peace deal completely out of the water. Europe now sees Trump as aligning with Russia and that represents an existential threat to Europe. He has completely overplayed his hand.
This is a 20 minute video. I have included it because I believe people should bear witness to the day America declared war on Europe.
If you’re a MAGA, no point engaging because it will earn an instant block. I’m really not in the mood for your knuckle dragger shit today.
