This is NOT a drill people!

Pretending it's not happening enables it to accelerate

Internment camps are set up...they're waiting...they've had a test run...there will be more...it will get worse

UNLESS More Americans STEP IT UP & MAKE IT STOP

This Republican control over all parts of our government defies comparison. On second thought, it feels like a Biblical punishment..Remember the 10 Plagues of Egypt?

First, the waters of the land of Egypt were to be turned into blood....
The Clean Water Rule protected smaller bodies of water, like streams and wetlands, from discharges of all kinds of pollutants. But not anymore: #RepublicanPlague #CleanWaterAct
The EPA has delayed implementation for 2 years as the agency “clarifies” (read: eliminates)the rule.The decision is a clear gift to industrial polluters who loudly protested the reg in 2015 & GOP lawmakers who have falsely claimed the rule regulates “puddles on private property.” Large freighter ship spilled red and yellow toxic sludge into waterway. People in small boats float on the spill.

Remember when you believed @JeremyCorbyn & @UKLabour might be playing a long game & come out in the end to #StopBrexit with the Ultimate People Power move by supporting the right to a #PeoplesVote?
Me too.

Our elected representatives are permitting a path that denies our young people any chance at fair future.

ToryGov deliberately blocked 16-18 yr olds from deciding their future by taking part in the EU Membership Referendum
bbc.co.uk/news/amp/uk-po…?
The Tories managed to block UK young people from voting by claiming it would cost too much to inform & register everyone.
The estimated cost was £6M.
That was considered too expensive.
Brexit is likely costing us millions a wk in lost revenue.

I have received more messages of love and solidarity this week than any person deserves in a lifetime. For that I am forever grateful. And our struggle against this immoral tax scam will reach its climax next week.
On Mon & Tue, we will meet on Capitol Hill in a contest for the soul of this nation. The sides are clear: money vs. people, greed vs. love. Across the US, Americans are raising our voices, rejecting this bill's pessimistic vision: a vision of scarcity, inequality, and misery.
Our only chance at victory is to clarify the moral stakes of this bill.

And to do that, we need the best voices of the American people. That means you, and your story, and your hopes, and your dreams.

Will you join us?
