- Reposted by Dr. MayaI don’t believe Tom Homan. I think this is a ploy to get @democrats.senate.gov to fund DHS. They lied about deescalation last week and I don’t believe a word the Cava Czar says.

- Reposted by Dr. MayaA Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

- Reposted by Dr. MayaWhen you succumb to the cynicism, you are helping Trump. He wants you to think that all is lost, that he is all powerful, and that there is nothing we can do. The fight for democracy is hard, but it is worth having. We have shown we can stand tall. We have shown we can win.

- So in the 1st week of 2026 we invaded Venezuela, threatened multiple other countries (incl allies), took away science-based vaccine recs in favor of hyped anti-vax propaganda, told Americans to eat more beef tallow, and then to top it all off murdered the mom of a 6yo child. I am just beside myself.
