- Reposted by ImmigrantsAreUSThe US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.

During a usual outbreak, “money would flow, resources would come in, there would be a big national educational campaign, and quite frankly, a large vaccination campaign across all areas of our country.”
- That mask is a symbol for a group that is a designated terrorist organization in at least 6 countries in 3 continents. The US has brought terrorism charges to individuals who proudly wear that mask. What is weird is not the gun. What's weird is ICE gave this guy a job in the federal government.

- Reposted by ImmigrantsAreUSBREAKING: 8 more U.S. Attorneys in MN resign from Trump’s DOJ in protest as backlash grows. This isn’t normal; isn’t routine reshuffling. It’s a rebellion. Last month, 6 veteran prosecutors quit in protest. Normal staffing for the MN DOJ’s office is around 50 attorneys. They’re down to just 9.

To all appearances, the city is 2 or 3 days from a federal ethnic cleansing, grounded in a hate campaign organized by the vice-president and American Nazis. snyder.substack.com/p/ethnic-cle...

- Impeach Noem. Today. Accountability now. Justice ASAP.
- Noem lies shamelessly: "An individual approached order Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic gun. The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently. This looks like a situation where an individual arrived to inflict maximum damage and kill law enforcement"

- I just called my senators and representative. Calling for a no vote on the budget without more oversight of ICE. It feels like nothing, but my rational mind does tell me it is infinitely better than nothing. Still feels like nothing. Call your Senators. Today. #DisbandICE
- Disband ICE. This is the way.
- The man who was murdered by ICE today was killed for filming them and more importantly protecting a woman from being attacked, he used his body to shield her. They murdered him for protecting her. He was a hero. #3E #GoodvsEvil

The NIH's new multi-year funding plan will harm many institutions, scientists, and health outcomes. Help us stop it! Call your representatives in the U.S. Congress! #NIH - Reposted by ImmigrantsAreUSSo what can we do? Start now and demand no votes for this bill unless the MYF provision is returned — to ban MYF at NIH this year, to set it to zero. We can still do this. But if scientists stick their heads in the sand and deny reality, we cannot even begin to fight. Realistic optimism.
