The man has access to the best intelligence in the world, but he doesn't want to listen to his Director of National Intelligence or anyone who says anything he doesn't like, and he refuses to receive the Presidential Daily Briefing. Great job, MAGA.

They’re not prioritizing "violent criminals." That was just another lie! Trump and his Gestapo thugs are abducting good people at their jobs, luring them into traps w/ fake "check-ins" and even kidnapping 🇺🇸 CITIZENS! This is FASCISM, and you - or one of your kids - could be next! #MAGAKidnappers

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

Trump won’t even bring his Intelligence Director to intelligence meetings. He doesn't even trust his own decisions, neither should you.

The White House lashed out at the creators of this ad for "fear-mongering". It must have really struck a nerve. Maybe they don't like being outed as fascists. You know what to do: SPREAD THIS EVERYWHERE! #MAGAKidnappers

This is true. I've been demonized by my whole family since chronic illness showed the smallest signs. Currently living alone by choice because I do not trust anyone not to turn on me when the Multiple Schlerosis flares up when it gets stressful. Drug addict, hypochondriac, Drama Queen, lazy, etc

CLARIFICATION : The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline. They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY So spread this around They can be texted. They can be called.

For those screaming that the people of Iran should just overthrow their government, ask yourselves why we can’t do that against our own ruthless religious extremist regime right here in America.

Mainly came back to herald warnings for LA on Thursday. This is all very messed up. Police are meant to protect citizens. Military are meant for protecting the State. Please, DO NOT provoke the Marines. Be peaceful. These are young, jumpy soldiers that have no experience in this kind of fascism.

What the actual fvck? This is our disgusting president. Making jokes about “illegals” installing his stupid flag poles (for Banner of Heaven flags?) and, again, saying immigrants working in the ag and hospitality sectors should be left alone. (Miller, are you aware?) There’s also more nonsense.

woke up in a new world... a world without America as the leader of the free world... a world with an American government that showed it doesn't care about decency or truth... that prefers dictators to allies... and that is remaking the US into an autocratic state devoid of freedom and security...🧐

I signed the final bills Melissa Hortman shepherded through the most narrowly divided legislature in the county. All of them bipartisan. We debated, we found common ground, and we compromised. That’s how democracy should function.
