Even IG is filled with/Nazis. It seems that all I do is spend my time blocking Nazi MAGAts anymore on IG.

Where are the other Democrats who should be supporting her by also spending the night? Why did they all cave?

When I was a kid in the Chicago area, neighborhood grocery stores within walking distance were the norm. Then, the chains came into the various areas and forced the neighborhood stores out by pricing them out.

This photograph was NOT created by Marie-lou Chatel!

It was created by Dorothea Lange in 1936 as a B&W silver gelatin image for the Resettlement Administration and is in the Library of Congress.

You have falsely credited Chatel with this image on more than one occasion.

Margaret Bourke-White was also employed by the Resettlement Administration & was part of that team of photographers, which included Lange, Walker Evans, & others, led by Roy Stryker, to document the agency's work & the lives of those affected by the Depression. She also created some haunting photos.

This is a colorized version of Lange’s photograph, which was a black & white silver gelatin photograph.

Nope… “Migrant Mother” is a silver gelatin b&w photo taken in 1936 by photographer Dorothea Lange during her time w/the Resettlement Administration. It is a portrait of 32 year-old migrant farmworker Florence Owens Thompson and three of her children huddled together in a tent at a pea-pickers' camp.

Justice Sotomayor’s dissent in today’s birthright citizenship case is a wake up call for all of us: “No right is safe in the new legal regime the Court creates”
 
SCOTUS is essentially deciding to look the other way as Trump infringes on our rights and breaks our laws.

Replace “weird” with “alarming” and you’re right on track.

Two phrases that need to be retired:

The U.S. president is “the leader of the free world.” (He’s not.)
