Woman of a "certain age" who believes that we are here to help and support one another. Democrat, liberal, believer in working together to fight what's happening in Washington now that is hurting so many in our country.
It is so disturbing how many echoes of 1930's Germany we see with this regime.

Leading American companies β including Palantir, Deloitte, and private prison giant GEO Group β raked in over $22B from ICE and CBP contracts last year.
Do not forget who is profiting from cruelty and human suffering.

The failure is yours - we need new leadership
Agree π― With Mr. Walsh.......

Indonesia is moving to ban LGBT+ content across digital platforms. Activists warn this will fuel harassment and arrests. Urge lawmakers to reject the Broadcasting Bill and defend free expression β censorship is not protection. a.allout.org/s/W7EXN/
Mike Johnson refuses to swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva β because her vote could force the House to release the Epstein Files. The GOP is doing everything they can to keep Trump's Epstein cover-up going.
I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
