Secret Views Things we might whisper to each other

In the course of an interesting critique of “merit,” Jay Nordlinger observes:

“People call for “merit” in the immigration process…

Those immigrants wanted a better life for themselves and their family, and they sacrificed to get it.

That was their ‘merit.’”

Multiple times this year I’ve had coffee with fellow immigrants who grew up in corrupt third world countries and the shared sentiment has been that Americans don’t understand how bad things are going to get.

What do you want to believe you would have done in Germany in the late 1930’s and 1940’s? What you would have done then, you are doing now? Is this what you want your legacy to be? If not, change it. Stand up and fight back PEACEFULLY. @insivible.bsky.social @indivisiblenb.bsky.social

GOP Sen. Joni Ernst responds to voters saying that cutting Medicaid will kill them: “Well, we all are going to die.”

On May 15, @bluntrochester.senate.gov asked Sec Kennedy who is in charge of CDC. RFK Jr said Matt Buzzelli.

Matt is NOT Acting CDC Director; he IS Chief of Staff.
He’s NOT a public health expert; he IS a lawyer with zero health experience.

CDC is not a part of vital public health decisions.

These men were building us homes.

The violence is being committed by ICE — masked men, no ID, no warrants.
Don’t believe the rhetoric being pushed by violent criminals about ‘violent criminals’ cause it’s all BS.
Call your Reps and demand they hold hearings, sanctioned or not. This needs to stop.

Trans Man Detained After Using Women’s Restroom in South Carolina

We NEED to stand up for the trans community!
This is insane that we allow this kind of abuse in America.

Trans rights are human rights.

Minnesota Army veteran: Cannabis needs to be rescheduled • Minnesota Reformer The work that started during the Biden administration on this issue appears to have stalled out, and it needs a jumpstart.

Commentary: Cannabis has legitimate medical uses, notably as a treatment for veterans suffering chronic pain or PTSD, and should be reclassified. “We served our country with honor. We did our duty. Now we are simply asking our government to do theirs.” minnesotareformer.com/2025/05/29/a...

This is horrific. The antisemitic “Great Replacement Theory” institutionalized within the US government.
Grateful to @marisakabas.bsky.social for the critical scoop.

There is something very cathartic about a fellow 40 something mom also banging her head against the table in distress and still willing to pick it back up and fight.

Agents zip-tie kids in new immigration crackdown in Texas At least three children were taken into custody and zip-tied at the San Antonio Immigration Court.

In San Antonio today, plainclothes ICE officers (not masked this time) arrested, handcuffed, and zip-tied a family of five (yes, ALL of them, including the little children) coming out of their immigration court hearing — which ICE had just had dismissed.

ICE turned back in Somerville

So many Somerville community members came out that ICE simply retreated. Nonviolent resistance works when communities come together to protect kids and families.

What do you choose? 👇

I choose LOVE. ❤️ 😎🌈✨

I have been sick for a week and I just read about "something going around" in a subreddit, which I guess is how I get my information now that the CDC is officially spending the next four years determining when and how microscopes became gay.
