The Big Ugly Death Bill has allocated 100 million dollars to hire more Gestapo.

My suggestion was for Democrats back in March to not vote for the CR until we had guaranteed protection for our social safety net.

The time to rein in the Gestapo was back in March but Chuck Schumer kneecapped the vast majority of Congressional Democrats, the Big Ugly Death Bill is law now and harder to change.

We need to keep protesting. I donate to Indivisible and the ACLU. Indivisible is the main group that has been organizing protests across the country. I am of the opinion that it is up to us, the people to throw out the billionaires, we are way ahead of the politicians, they are slowly beginning to catch up.

David Hogg had the right idea, but it got him fired.
