I mean, if the radicalized young right wing men that idolize Elon read a book, it would be a good thing. 1.25 audiobook speed notwithstanding.

There were also reports that they relied on the results of the facial recognition software even if it contradicted valid citizenship papers.

What could go wrong?

Are Americans really okay with this level of ethnic cleansing? Is there ANYTHING that would make the purported Christians in our country say this is immoral?

Not sure I want to know the answer.

People need to connect this directly to trump, as he is solely responsible for making hungry children hostages in a political fight. Unless and until that happens, NO ONE should capitulate.

We had a babysitter who swore that she inserted a claim that George Washington's favorite color was purple that stayed for years. She was at our house the day it was taken down, and she was super bummed.

You don't have to read the whole book, just the summary.

Heartbreaking. I hope she died secure in the knowledge that things will get better, even if she won't be around to see it. She certainly did her part .

Oh, man, I had forgotten all about that book. Even now, I barely remember anything except that I hated it. I *think* I finished it trying to see if it would get any better.

I'm nearing 50 and I'm routinely one of the youngest people in those meetings. It's disheartening, especially because I'm at least as busy as almost any of them (big job, large family, aging parents nearby, multiple commitments, etc.)

Where I live, 80% of the people who attend these protests are white haired, mostly women. I want to know where the younger people are.

That guy sounds like a horrible human being. Can we get him shamed and harassed out of his house and job???

J/k, I don't really want that, because ONLY A MONSTER WOULD WANT TO DO THAT SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY DISAGREE.

Fuck. Him.

The whole idea, and the number of people betting, that trump would get this award was insanity. I was really hoping the choice would be a targeted middle finger towards his administration, and this fits.

But now he may really start a war with Venezuela. 😬

Please make sure you talk to at least one team that lost their Terrorism and Targeted Violence grant through the now-defunct CP3. Ours was cancelled, and it was about training behavioral health professionals to recognize and respond to individuals preparing for violence.
