The disappointment and grief of this moment is sometimes overwhelming. It hurts. Tonight it feels especially heavy.

Tomorrow is a new day. I still believe that love will win the day.

But tonight… I weep. I lament. How long, O Lord?

Tonight I’m just so sad . . .

I’m so sad that an expansive faith I love has been cheapened by many to just a useful PR for nationalism and hate. I’m heartbroken for those it harms. I’m gutted to see friends and family I love and respect embrace its folly.

How does corruption work? The Reverse Robin Hood Bill conveniently saves all of its worst cuts until just after the 2026 midterm elections. They want to hide the devastation from you and blame it on someone else.

We were just suspended without warning from threads and Instagram. We have no idea why.

If any of y’all are on those apps and want to let them know to fix that we would be appreciative.

We can't afford cancer care for veterans, school lunches for kids or Meals on Wheels for seniors because Trump is spending:

β€’ $1 billion to retrofit a hand-me-down Qatari plane
β€’ $330,000,000 to play golf
β€’ $100,000,000 to build a new ballroom
β€’ $92,000,000 for a birthday parade

But DOGE

@vinguptamd.bsky.social given that access to fall booster for Covid vaccine may be restricted, is it a good idea to boost now (last one in September) while it’s still available? I know it’s not a new updated version, but good for Summer wave and better than nothing in the Fall?

Trump bears the bulk of the blame for the unprecedented global economic crisis now unfolding. But let’s not ignore the role played by the hideously bad judgment of the business and financial leaders who supported Trump and didn’t realize this was an inevitable outcome.

He is LGBTQ. His tattoos are benign. But ICE submitted photos of his tattoos as evidence he is Tren de Aragua. His @ImmDef attorney planned to present evidence he is not. But never got the chance because our client has been disappeared.

Solanyer said an ICE officer told her that her brother was detained because of a tattoo that linked him to
Tren de Aragua, a violent gang with Venezuelan prison origins that has spread through the Americas.
She said the tattoo depicted a rose and that he had gotten it in a tattoo parlor in Dallas.
"He thought it looked cool, looked nice, it didn't have any other significance," she said, stressing that he is not a gang member.

Caraballo had multiple tattoos including ones of roses, a clock with this daughter's birth time, a lion and a shaving razor, said his wife.
"I've never seen him without hair, so I haven't recognized him in the photos," she said. "I just suspect he's there because of the tattoos that he has and right now any Venezuelan man with tattoos is assumed to be a gang member", she added, citing also the fact that he has effectively gone missing.
Sanchez said her husband has never been a member of Tren de Aragua.

People have started identifying some of the 238 Venezuelan migrants deported to Bukele's torture dungeons by the U.S. fascist regime. The brother of one of them posted that his relative is a barber with no criminal record and no links to any criminal organisations.

The men sent to do hard labor in a Salvadoran prison:

- A tattoo artist seeking asylum who entered legally.
- A teen who got a tattoo in Dallas because he thought it looked cool.
- A 26-year-old whose tattoos his wife says are unrelated to a gang.
- A barber whose family says he has no gang ties.

America,

This is our Germany 1933 moment.

Decide who the f*ck you're gonna be, what you stand for, what you want your legacy to beβ€”and how you are going to respond.

This is beyond party, beyond country.

This is about our collective humanity.
