AOC: When they say illegal vs legal immigration—they are trying to end legal status in the US making people undocumented and then they have the audacity to call them illegal when they were here documented.

I just wanna say something really plainly that I haven’t seen spelled out like this There is no such thing as legal immigration anymore. Because they are taking people at their citizenship hearings they are taking people who are doing everything by the book. 1/2

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

Hard not to notice that ICE isn't breaking up drug rings or gangs (because we would ABSOLUTELY hear about it if they were), but instead are dressing up like bank robbers and doing the laziest shit possible, like hanging out at immigration court or grabbing people for busted taillights. Worthless

Suozzi: They’re claiming the cuts will pay for themselves. But they won’t. And how do we know that? Because Republicans are putting an increase in the debt ceiling into this bill—allowing the president to borrow $4 trillion.

Why didn’t Welker push back on his statement that “we’ve had a massive expansion of government?” We’ve had the SAME NUMBER of government employees for over five decades. Corporate media, PUSH BACK WITH FACTS PLEASE.

This is what ICE does: just like they stalked the family’s car and smashed the windows in to kidnap them. They attack people on the streets grab them and take them to concentration camps. Entire neighborhoods gather to protect little babies & their moms from being separated & kidnapped.

In a world where cruelty and greed get press, it’s good to see a billionaire lifting others with their vast wealth. “There are too many urgent problems to solve for me to hold onto resources that could be used to help people.” We’re with you, Bill. Make every 💵 count. www.cnn.com/2025/05/08/t...

Cal-Maine, the biggest egg producer, has been accused of using bird flu as cover to jack up prices and triple its profits from a year ago. It also received $22M in federal aid. While you're getting gouged at the grocery store, your tax dollars are subsidizing corporate greed.
