My heart was pounding by the time I finished reading this, and I could barely breathe.

My parents, both college graduates and raised during the Depression, made sure my siblings and I were fully vaccinated against everything possible.

Because why wouldnโ€™t you?

She was held in ICE detention in Tacoma for 4.5 months and has now been released, but she needs help affording an apartment.

So โ€œAbolish ICEโ€ went from being a fringe fever dream to becoming a mainstream Democratic position being discussed the the Senate and House of Representatives in only a matter of weeks.

It proves we CAN make a difference, even when weโ€™re told itโ€™s not โ€œpopularโ€!

I canโ€™t BELIEVE that I just heard Elsa Chang tell @amandagorman.bsky.social on โ€œAll Things Consideredโ€, while discussing her poem about the killing of Renee Good, that โ€œmany people believe the ICE officer was acting in self-defense.โ€

SERIOUSLY? On

Just like Venezuela: First, it was about fentanyl. Then it was about cocaine. THEN โ€œdemocracyโ€ and โ€œregime changeโ€โ€ฆ

Then, finally, the truth came out: It was only EVER about the oil!

This list of names is becoming disturbingly familiar. Almost the same set who ended the government shutdown.

I detect presidential aspirations in several of them, and these votes - alone - should be enough to diminish those prospects.

I remember the day of the Kent State massacre. Everything changed that day. Suddenly the tide began to turn in the anti-war movement.

Iโ€™ve been predicting for the last year that a moment like this that would, again, lead to a massive uprising in the U.S.

Are we there again? I hope so!
