Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Looking for evidence of Trump's guilt in the Epstein files is NOT like looking for a needle in a haystack.
It's like looking for a needle in a barrel of needles.

From 2001 to 2022, there were 1,375 school shootings at elementary and secondary schools, resulting in 515 total deaths and 1,161 injuries.

and they STILL refuse to CONSIDER gun control, or even registration... They have NO INTEREST in protecting kids.

Only protecting the gun lobbyists $$$$$

This is what Hess said: โ€œIt brings up mixed emotions to represent the US right now. I think itโ€™s a little hard. Thereโ€™s obviously a lot going on that Iโ€™m not the biggest fan of. Just because I wear the flag doesn't mean I represent everything that's going on in the US.โ€

Sad to say that the idea of Superman fighting for โ€œtruth, justice, and the American wayโ€ seems so quaint, now that the โ€œAmerican wayโ€ is so far off the rails.

We can expect no honesty, no decency, and no humanity from this Presidential administration. It will be like this until the microsecond he leaves.

Itchiku Kubotaโ€™s "Symphony of Light" Kimono
This magnificent kimono is a masterpiece from the "Symphony of Light" series by the legendary textile artist Itchiku Kubota. Utilizing his revived and modernized version of the lost tsujigahana dyeing technique, Kubota created a panoramic landscape that flows seamlessly across the entire garment. The design features a brilliant sunset or dawn, with fiery oranges and deep vermilions at the base transitioning into soft golds, purples, and ethereal lavender clouds near the shoulders. The fabric itself is heavily textured through intricate tie-dyeing and stitch-resist methods, creating a three-dimensional, "shimmering" effect that captures the fleeting brilliance of natural light.

Itโ€™s a 50โ€™s thing. There was great pride in what the country had done to beat back fascism. Great honor in the flag and reverence for the sacrifices made. The survivors really believed in the freedom guaranteed by the Constitution.
But of course there was McCarthy, and Nixon, and here we are. Fugged

But itโ€™s worth it.

I remember when my mom, whoโ€™s in her 70s, and I heard Kamala Harris announce her care-at-home plan. We were so excited. She even explained it was cheaper than hospital care. To us, it felt like someone was actually planning to make healthcare better.

Now look where we are.
