This twitter thread is very relevant to the fact that elected Democrats default to giving the cops more money--see Biden--despite knowing that police departments are riddled with white supremacists, never mind the murdering of innocent citizens or the blatant corruption and graft.

We need more progressive Democrats and a lot fewer centrists.

We already pay our agencies and institutions to abuse us: what do you think your city/county/state/federal money spend the most tax money on? Not your health, not the infrastructure, not protecting the air your breathe or the water you drink or the soil where your food grows.

The spend the most money on cops who'll kill citizens and a military that looses track of TRILLIONS on the regular.

The Pentagon can't account for over 61% of it's *3.5 trillion dollars* assets.

Meanwhile, individual U.S. tax payers will have to declare any money they got this year through paypal, etc.--used to be anything over $20K was taxable, now it's $600.

The headlines, by the way, are outrageous. "Progress" for them, fines and/or jail for you and I.

We need to #DefundTheMilitary if we are to defend people & the planet.
