How defunding public media endangers our children's learning and well-being. Yet that exactly is what the Trump regime is trying to do. We cannot let them.

George Zimmerman killed Trayvon Martin—racists raised him $340K

Shiloh Hendrix called a Black boy the N-word—racists have raised her $500K

Kyle Rittenhouse killed 2 people at a BLM rally—racists raised raised him $580K

Daniel Penny killed a Black man on a train—racists raised him $3.3M

All four racists & killers got wealthy and face zero consequences. The system isn’t broken. It’s working as intended.

On International Worker's Day, a reminder that we are not $36T in debt because working people rely on welfare & pay too little in taxes, but because billionaires avoid paying taxes & rely on corporate welfare.

Tax billionaires. Protect working people. Save our economy. Save our democracy.

Words matter.

The Trump regime did not "deport" a 2-year-old U.S. Citizen of Latino ethnicity—the Trump regime knowingly *Human Trafficked* a 2-year-old U.S. Citizen of Latino ethnicity.

That isn't just a violation of US Constitutional rights, it's a violation of international human rights law. In a just society the people responsible for this crime would face criminal prosecution. That is what should happen here.

BREAKING: Trump regime REVERSES cancellation of foreign student visas for ~4700 students. This, after 23 judges nationwide blocked enforcement & activists filed 100+ lawsuits challenging the fascist act.

Your Activism Matters!

We cannot let up. Rümeysa Öztürk & Mahmoud Khalil are still imprisoned.

To recap:
—Cost to have a baby: $33,000
—Cost for annual childcare: $20,000
—Cost of median house: $419,000

Republicans won't raise the living wage, won't raise taxes on billionaires, won't allow a permanent child tax credit, won't enact UBI, won't pay for child pre-k, won't cancel exploitative student debt, and won't build affordable housing.

Their solution to the decrease in birth rates?

Trump wants to give parents $5000 to have a baby.

This isn't just performative—it's offensively stupid.

Americans:
•Cancel student debt!
•Cancel medical debt!
•Make insulin free!

Most of Developed World:
•What is student debt?
•What is medical debt?
•Insulin is already free!

What MAGAs (& some corporate Dems) calls “socialism”—even conservative parties in most developed nations call a “human right.”

New reports are that Hegseth didn’t just share war plans with his wife, but also with his brother. This is after he shared earlier war plans with a journalist.

White House is now saying they’re actively searching for a new Secretary of Defense. This is what happens when you replace merit based DEI with white male DUI mediocrity.

But I don’t just want Hegseth fired—he should face the same criminal prosecution as any citizen who illegally shares confidential Govt info. Rule of law amirite?

Just got back from a pro democracy rally. 100% peaceful, committed to democracy, & people are angry.

They're angry at MAGAs for being fascists, & angry at corporate democrats for not rising to the occasion. Heard plenty of people say we need more Van Hollens & less Schumers.

Posting full report soon.

White supremacist & son of a cop Phoenix Ikner killed two people & is being infantilized as "struggling with mental health from a rough childhood"—yet US Citizen Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a Latino American who committed no crime but is suffering in an El Salvador death camp.

This is American fascism. We must stand in solidarity now. Or it will get worse for everyone.

Murderer Phoenix Ikner arrested alive reminded me:
-Payton Gendron murders 10—arrested alive
-Nikolas Cruz murders 17—arrested alive
-Dylan Roof murders 9—arrested alive
-Patrick Crusius murders 23—arrested alive

Breonna Taylor, Philando Castile, Tamir Rice, Aiyana Jones: Innocent—murdered by cops

The system isn't broken—it was built this way.

If the murderous Florida mass shooter Phoenix Ikner was brown or an immigrant then MAGA would run wild demonizing him & calling to deport anyone who criticizes America.

But because Ikner is a white male son of a cop, he is arrested alive & MAGA outlets run sympathy articles for his rough childhood, and how he struggled with mental health.

We shouldn't human traffic guilty people to foreign death camps, either, actually.

The Holocaust Encyclopedia defines a concentration camp as “Functioning outside of a judicial system. The prisoners are not indicted or convicted of any crime by judicial process.”

Today, it’s happening again as Trump disappears immigrants to El Salvador.

Fascism is when there are documented cases of the KKK mass murdering at least 5000 Black people and terrorizing millions more, but they're still allowed to exist and hold public marches due to "free speech," but Black and brown people are disappeared, deported, and tortured on the mere accusation that they said things the Government doesn't like.

My public lecture citing UN reports, Israeli Human Rights Org reports, and Israeli media reports to demonstrate that the USA & Netanyahu are violating international human rights law and enabling genocide in Palestine.

Here are the receipts:

12 Democratic Senators and 48 Democratic House members voted for the Laken Riley Act and helped it become law.

The Laken Riley Act allows the US Govt to deport immigrants on the mere accusation of a crime.

If you see any of those 60 Democrats complain about Mahmoud Khalil, Rumeysa Ozturk, or K ilmar Abrego Garcia, among hundreds of others, please know they enabled this fascism. With Democrats like these, who needs MAGAs.

Don't tell me Mahmoud Khalil standing with Jewish people for justice for Palestine is antisemitic when you pardoned the Nazi terrorist wearing a "Camp Auschwitz" shirt as he violently stormed the Capitol to hang Mike Pence & kill Nancy Pelosi.

Shame on the MAGA regime & every silent politician.

Just today:
•Two planes collided at Reagan airport in DC
•A helicopter crashed in the Hudson, killing 6
•Dow closed down 1,000 points
•MAGAs voted for the "SAVE" Act to disenfranchise tens of millions of voters

We've suffered 25 deadly aviation incidents in 2025, killing ~120 people. The economy is on the verge of recession. And MAGAs are enacting autocracy. But good thing they fired Black & brown people from government.

This is what a country run by white supremacists looks like.

Good News: SCOTUS rules 9-0 to UPHOLD court order requiring Trump regime to bring Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, back to the US after illegally deporting him to El Salvador

Bad News: SCOTUS enforces no time limit to comply, which the Trump regime may use to delay compliance & extend Garcia's torture
