I need to stress something here:
The US destroying Iran’s navy is about as impressive as prime Michael Jordan dunking on a toddler.
I know the administration needs something to brag about, but this outcome was literally never in question.

ICE and the Border Patrol pose a threat not just to our civil liberties but to our political liberties. The fight for free and fair elections is paramount.

This make you uncomfortable? Good! Because this isn’t history, it’s reality and what ICE has normalized.

America's religion is capitalism.
The color green trumps white.
The 1% and all the Trump bootlickers are fine with fascism unless it hurts their bottom line.
That's the only thing that will end their complicity with this terrorism.
So, use your dollar. Boycott. Strike. Shame them. Mock them.
Alex was an ICU Nurse at the VA.
To choose that line of work, and to do it a VA, says everything about him and his selflessness.
What a profound and brutal loss for his family, community, patients and our country.
Every elected official should condemn this unequivocally.

Germany sends troops to Greenland.
Germany has seen this movie before.
They played the bad guys then.
They want a different role in the sequel.
ICE agents terrified of the pushback, as their families, and friends turn against them. As a result, DHS is having trouble getting volunteers to attack innocent citizens.

When you succumb to the cynicism, you are helping Trump. He wants you to think that all is lost, that he is all powerful, and that there is nothing we can do.
The fight for democracy is hard, but it is worth having. We have shown we can stand tall. We have shown we can win.
Listen up folks!!!

The Norwegian Nobel Prize committee has been forced to make a statement, declaring that the prize cannot be transferred.
It's hard even to comprehend how stupid this has become

Renee Nicole Good, a Minneapolis mother murdered by ICE, was also a prize-winning poet; link below connects to her published work.
May her memory, may the memories of ALL unalived by orphan-making regimes, be a blessing.
Walz: "It's beyond me that apparently from the federal government, the Homeland Security director herself, has already determined who this person who, what their motive was, and they hadn't even been taken out of the vehicle. We're not living in a normal world."
