“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

McConnell arguably saved Trump's butt by not voting to convict Trump in his second impeachment and pushing a bogus argument against a guilty vote. This is how Trump pays him back. All other Republicans should take note. Your cult leader will eat your face in a moment's notice.

Under Trump, the NLRB is dropping its opposition to a lawsuit filed by SpaceX and Amazon claiming the board itself is unconstitutional. Two of the world's richest men could get what they've always dreamed of: the destruction of unions once and for all.

Trump has begun his cruel mass deportations, and many good people are endangered and frightened. Know your rights and protect your community. This is an urgent moral call to action.

"[A] democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is Fascism—ownership of Government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power." - FDR (1938)

Deactivated my facebook and instagram. I may delete it eventually but I do not wish to participate in media that is an invasion of privacy, unhealthy for my health and support ideals and individuals that I do not support.
