I’ve been putting in the work in crypto for a while now, and it’s been paying off. To celebrate, I just copped myself a brand-new Porsche Cayenne! Huge shoutout to @TradeWithKori , my coach, for all the guidance and support. Couldn’t have done it without her.

This should piss everyone off, and our tax dollars paid for it.

A massive building purchased by ICE for $70 million in Arizona to “warehouse” immigrants.

Calling this “housing” is a lie. This is storage. This is treating human beings like inventory.

They don’t want the videos because they reveal the truth. The footage isn’t the problem, the lies are.

When DHS talks, the story collapses. When people film, the truth holds.

These videos aren’t rage bait. They’re receipts. And that’s why they’re so desperate to discredit them.

We bear witness because power lies best in the dark. Keep sharing the videos , If they won’t tell the truth, we must.
