W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee:

“Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

Martin Kulldorff & @MartinKu...•9/10/23 S.•• "One of the most disturbing images of the Covid-19 pandemic was when a teacher .. forced a mask on a crying toddler .. In some ways, the U.S. government.. treated all of us like toddlers, compelling us to endure draconian Covid measures" - @HRaleighspeaks

For decades, undocumented immigrants have trusted the IRS when it encouraged them to file. They've paid taxes in good faith, contributing nearly $100 BILLION per year and supporting social services they can't even access.

Not only is this a total betrayal, but it's also illegal. We'll fight this.

If we all had the courage this teacher, Sarah has, the world would be in a better place. #everyoneiswelcomehere #beasbraveasateacher

On this 5th podcast anniversary, I’m filled with gratitude for our healthcare heroes. You didn’t do it to be a hero, but because it was the right thing to do. Thank you for saving lives, caring for hearts, and holding hands as patients passed. You haven't been forgotten.

If this is true- if the administration deported this visa holder without cause and against a court order- then we have entered the depths of authoritarianism

These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere

She trained at Yale.
She works at the VA, treating American vets.
She had a passport and visa.
And she is being detained without a lawyer.

If one disabled person is attacked, we are all attacked & truthfully, it’s the only way we are going to survive this
