Imagine if another country’s president was cracking down on the opposition party’s fundraising mechanism “to cripple their opponents’ political infrastructure”
Authoritarianism is here. 🇺🇸

BREAKING: The Supreme Court will hear consolidated cases challenging Trump’s executive order to limit birthright citizenship on May 15. In these cases, the administration seeks to limit the scope of nationwide injunctions. www.democracydocket.com/wp-content/u...
Birthright citizenship is enshrined in the Constitution through the first section of the 14th Amendment.
The relevant text states:
"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."
🧵 time!!!! This will be long so strap in!!! The TL;DR version is simple: if you are a naturalized citizen, you need to check your status at SSA immediately and if you aren’t listed as a citizen, you need to correct that. Immediately. Ok so here’s the news article we are discussing. Let’s go. 1/?
Diversity, equity, and inclusion are all fundamental values in ed. These are things that we celebrate #edusky
This regime is threatening funding to our neediest students & schools in an effort to whitewash of the curriculum and eliminate the diversity that truly makes us great.

Tyranny relies on obedience.
They want us to fear them.
They expect our silence.
But we will never bow.
Join us on 4/19.
Historians and voting experts have emphasized the unprecedented nature of this attack on voting rights. The federal government has historically acted to protect and expand voting rights, rather than restrict them.

We can see this regime's insidious form of control through manufactured chaos, demoralization, and the systematic dismantling of essential government functions is hurting our federal workers. Let's send some extra support and appreciation to the #Altgov heroes!

Due process exists because the state is supposed to prove its allegations against you before depriving you of life and liberty.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia was mistakenly sent to El Salvadorian Centro de Confinamiento del Terrorismo, or CECOT. SCOTUS unanimously upheld a lower court decision ordering the [regime] to release Garcia from custody.
Republicans just passed a budget that guts Medicaid, SNAP, veterans’ benefits, and free school lunches.
They swore they'd fix the economy—but this sure as hell ain’t it.

At my school we are celebrating Autism Acceptance Month with a spirit week. The theme tomorrow is Communication Differences and as the building #SLP I shared this video.
It is worth every moment of the 9 min length!
We are made stronger by our diversity, provision of equity, and inclusion of all!
Nope, we are REAL people who have REAL anger about the REAL danger this regime poses to our democracy.
Keep fighting!

The fact that everything around us is burning to the ground & some people still have no clue that they voted for the arsonist or are complicit in the arson is absolutely mind boggling.
People are ok with it so long as the black woman isn’t their President 🤯.
America, we have a problem!
#AbolishTrumpRegime has been on all of my posts since January. The words we use matter.
🧵 2/2 We can attack the weaknesses of the regime with:
👍 inclusive empathy
👍 peaceful but relentless dissent
👍 using our rights to speak out, protest, protect those without privilege
