The dismantling of the Department of Education hurts MAGA most. Their rampant misspelling of martial law which they turn into ‘Marshall’ law. Are you referring to Penny Marshall law - the Laverne and Shirley act of 1983
Or Marshall Mathers Law governing diss tracks of the early 2000s?

Missing Korea. Hoping Yoon’s impeachment trial goes the right direction. This 🌎 feels so screwed.

Happy Korean Independence Day 🇰🇷❤️
I hope the Korean people keep fighting to hold Yoon accountable. Thankful to have witnessed their fight and belief in democracy. They were annexed by Japan for 35 yrs, ending in 1945. Their first democratic election was in 1948. They will not give it up. History=real

The Senate has confirmed Kash Patel, who has published an enemies list identical to Trump's, to serve a 10-year term as FBI Director.

He will be a major cog in Trump's vengeance machine to silence and intimidate critics.

Be warned. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/kash-patel-in-his-own-words

People against immigrants don’t get to eat our dumplings, kimchi, or BBQ, and don’t get to listen to Kpop or watch Kdramas. Too bad for you.

I’ve been in Korea for 5 hours and joined a parade. I’m not sure what’s going on but I fell in with the trade union.

Trayvon Martin dreamed of flying airplanes.

But he was killed in a racist murder in 2012. His death sparked a national conversation about racial profiling &, following the acquittal of his killer, the #BlackLivesMatter movement.

Happy birthday, Trayvon. #TheMarchContinues

How can Black and Brown communities combine their collective might for the fight ahead? As Donald Trump retakes office, activists, lawmakers, and academics build on Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy of community organizing.

To recap, Trump:

-Forced out the FAA chief at Musk's insistence
-Imposed a hiring freeze that reportedly included air traffic controllers
-Fired the TSA head and gutted a key aviation safety committee
-Blamed the DCA crash on DEI

This is disastrous leadership.

I asked RFK Jr. a simple question:

BREAKING: President Trump just signed into law the Laken Riley Act, which will require immigrants to be detained with no due process based on an accusation of a non-violent crime.

This is a dangerous bill that violates our Constitutional rights.

BREAKING: The White House rescinded President Trump's order to freeze all federal funding, including grants for public health, education, and safety.

This cruel order would have devastated communities across the country.
