We could have free health care and free education and stop being a paranoid militaristic nation.

ICE sat outside a MN teacher's house hoping to scare her. It backfired spectacularly.

I lost all respect for men's hockey when they invited the cash pedal and behaved like high schoolers celebrating their win.

You should not be working on the railroad all the live-long day, nor should you be working on the railroad just to pass the time away. You should be working on the railroad for the duration of a reasonable shift, for fair wages.

Years ago, one landed on my boot, picking off unseen insects. He turned his head and looked me straight in the eye, then continued his foreaging. That was such a cool experience, just when I was working through trust issues in my life.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

My colleague got into Trump's sprawling family detention camp, which is full of toddlers, kids, & teens.

- Kids have cut themselves or talked about suicide

-There's worms & mold in food

-300 kids have been held for 30+ days, far longer court settlement allows

While Puerto Ricans were fighting in Vietnam, Donald β€˜The Pedophile’ Trump had his daddy pay a doctor to write a prescription for Bonespurs. While Puerto Ricans were fighting in Afghanistan & Iraq, Kid Rock was doing coke and writing songs about raping underage girls. #FDT #FMAGA

PSA: you can love your country but not the people running it.

Same goes for Israel. Not supporting the administration’s genocide in Gaza doesn’t make you anti-Semitic.

It makes you a decent human being!

Menneskeverd is the Norwegian word for the inate value of a human being, that we are valued for just being. We are not to be divided and devalued by our differences. But our differences make us unique and special and of great worth.

The Red Hat Resistance. February 26th. (my response to Minneapolis knitting red hats)
YouTube video by Red Hat Factory The Red Hat Resistance. February 26th. (my response to Minneapolis knitting red hats)

February 26 is the anniversary of the Nazi occupation of Norway, outlawing the wearing of red knit hats. I think this can be a powerful visual symbol of the rejection of the current brutalistic regime.

The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley.

Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo.

Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and she’s rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles.

Get them out!

Observers show ICE compassion. It should be taken as a lesson to ICE about human dignity.
