There's a connection that can be made between the "Sell off 3.3 million acres of public land" part of HR 1 and the "Triple the budget for ICE and detention facilities" part of HR 1... Republicans are using their big (bullshit) bill to fund Trump's police state.

U.S. involvement in this Iran-Israel conflict feels painfully reminiscent of the 2003 Iraq War — questionable authorization, weapons of mass destruction misinformation, and goals of regime change. Demand your representatives support a war powers resolution! 🔥📞🔥 --> 5calls.org/issue/iran-i...

All eyes are on Trump's fascist test run in LA, but there's other bad stuff happening back in Washington, too... 🚨 House votes THIS WEEK on Trump's NPR, PBS, and USAID cuts. 💸 Senate is still working on the budget reconciliation bill. ⚕️ RFK fired the CDC vaccine advisory panel. Make your calls.

Let's be clear, Trump's memo authorizes the National Guard and active duty troops to protect federal immigration officers wherever protests “are likely to occur." He's not just coming for LA, he's coming for any threat to his fascist agenda. Call your Reps & Governors. 5calls.org/issue/nation...
