“They got money for wars, but can’t feed the poor.” — Tupac said it years ago… and here we are.
The Pentagon is now asking for an additional $200 BILLION for this war.
We always find the money for war.
But when it comes to housing, healthcare, or feeding people? Suddenly it’s crickets.

One day after the Supreme Court lifted the ban on racial profiling, federal agents swarmed a car in Van Nuys.
Four masked agents with guns drawn yanked people out, slammed them to the ground, and pointed a weapon at a pregnant woman.
There is no justification for this. None.

Wyoming legislators have proposed one of the most extreme anti-library bills nationwide. It would effectively eliminate teen sections in public & school libraries under threat of $50,000 fines for "sexually explicit" materials.
The bill ITSELF is sexually explicit.

Wyoming Proposes Extreme Anti-Library Bill
The proposed bill text would itself be deemed "sexually explicit" were it to be read by anyone under the age of 18.

Oh wow. Lanes on I-10 narrowed suddenly, forcing ALL drivers to exit at a weigh station.
A makeshift checkpoint—digital sign read: “Have Passport Ready”
1 of like 12 ICE agents, all standing around—in full military gear—ordered me to open my window:
“You a U.S. citizen?”
“Uh yes” then let me go..

Well, I had an interesting Sunday night, how 'bout you?
🧵
NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler had a local social worker physically dragged out of his town hall Sunday night.
Emily Feiner was singled out by private security, lifted out of her seat, as the crowd chanted “let her stay” and “shame, shame.”
She’s a constituent.
Not a threat.
Fascism again.

AOC: We heard that we should take your word that Medicaid will be protected — that we should trust you that no one is going to be affected by this. But as a woman, the word was given that my rights would not be taken away by the Supreme Court — and that wasn’t true.

No, russia's attack on Sumy wasn't 'a mistake.' No one accidentally uses a cluster munition warhead against a crowded city center on a major holiday. Neither was the bombing of the Kryvyi Rih playground a mistake, nor were the filmed murders of POWs.
