For those disinformation purveyors claiming that "our ancestors" did not receive public aid when they first came to the United States: This is ahistorical nonsense easily debunked by a simple web search. Your ancestors weren't some super breed of human.

And by the way, to emigrate to the United States in previous decades was a matter of hours, not what it is now. You know how long some of my friends have been waiting for their papers to be processed? 20+ YEARS. history.com/news/immigrant…
The concept of public aid for immigrants came to the Americas with colonists socialwelfare.library.vcu.edu/programs/poor-…
And if it wasn't for public aid there would be no colonists left.

The real world isn't like "Little House on the Prairie," which by the way was written to indoctrinate children away from public use laws in part by a journalist whose grasp of the facts was so bad that Charlie Chaplin once sued her newyorker.com/books/page-tur…
Also, since you're here, this and any claim like it is nothing more than specious bullshit, but for some reason made-up random figures that aren't round numbers go a long way toward fooling chronic suckers

Update: I'm deleting this! I fell for a mislabeled video.

I've deleted it; the video shows dead fish in the wake of a boat with the claim that it's due to climate change. While there is climate change that's killing salmon, that was apparently the aftermath of a boating accident.

And that's what happens when I don't vet before I tweet

It wasn't just any group of protesters, either. It was #JewsAgainstICE, just a couple days after anniversary of Heather Heyer's murder much the same way in #Charlottesville by a neo-Nazi #UniteTheRight attendee.

Police then pepper sprayed them

washingtonpost.com/nation/2019/08…
"An employee reached by phone at the Wyatt Detention Facility declined to comment early on Thursday. Messages left for the Central Falls Police Department and ICE weren’t immediately returned."

Yeah, I fucking bet they weren't
You can't support driving through Jewish protesters and in the same breath claim you are pro-Jewish because you support Israel fyi

First came Trump, suggesting that Sweden’s history of welcoming refugees was at the root of a violent attack in Rinkeby the previous evening, even though nothing had actually happened...and then things got weird
source: Fox News, which had excerpted a short film promoting a dystopian view of Sweden as a victim of its asylum policies, with immigrant neighborhoods crime-ridden “no-go zones.”

06/01/2019 - 78 years ago today, the longest-serving #UnitedStates #President, #Franklin D. #Roosevelt (#FDR) addressed the 77th #Congress with his "#Four #Freedoms" speech with the intent to shift #US #foreign #policy from that of #neutrality to #interventionist.
#FDR promoted the idea that the people of the world, in all nations, shared entitlement to four freedoms: that of the freedom of speech and expression, the freedom of worship, the freedom from want and the freedom from fear.
#FDR is arguably one of the most 'successful' #US Presidents. Some would argue that on the basis of his numerous social policies such as 'the New Deal'. Others, however, would argue that his role during the second world war was more prevalent to his success & everlasting legacy.

#disinformation alert! 🚨

The right's latest talking points are false claims that #Kavanaugh's young children were harassed by Democrats as they were escorted out of the hearing.

This is quickly and easily debunked by a simple Google search. 1/8
A Fox News opinion peice expressed dismay that the 2 young girls were upset by the lack of civility shown to their father.

It doesn't say the children were harassed.

Their mother chose to remove them when Dems addressed the lack of transparency.
2/8 📰goo.gl/CYCaQW
The first result that said the children were harassed was a Reddit post, which contained a screenshot of a tweet. 3/8 #Kavanaugh

At dinner, I learned more about corruption + racism built into society by our masters. A book we discussed (Zinn) was used as part of this "Left" resource's bibliography. I had to share. [A thread]

@BlackSocialists - thoughts on this resource?

historyisaweapon.com/indextrue.html
It very simply lays out the case that we are all being controlled. It covers hidden history of the United States including their (and, due to the systems created by our masters, our) racism.

If you haven't been in school for a while (or are in a terrible school), some of the words might trip you up. Dictionary.com and Wikipedia.org are two good resources to help you.
