Miss Trust

You know the party has nothing and the county chairs so far have no clue. But we can totally go to a happy hour.

Are you back? We in trouble girl. They are changing the Texas constitution. Early voting is a secret scavenger hunt now. No polling info available. No locations available. Dallas gave theirs and I believe Harris. Every other voter was told to contact the state. Directly.

They canceled my work on race and media.

So I built a @resistanceschool.bsky.social instead.

Now we are teaching over 600 students.

Week 2 of Race, Media and International Affairs starts today.

We move ✊🏾💪🏾

Those are easily manipulated. What county are you in? And who gave you location

Spoiler Jas, we can’t. I’ll message later or shoot me a note.

Going to message and email you. We in trouble girl. Urgently. Thx

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process.

But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things.

That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

Trump was asked yesterday about Putin increasing strikes on civilian targets after we cut off inteI: “He’s doing what anybody else would do. I think he’s hitting them harder than he’s been hitting them. And I think probably anybody in his position would be doing that right now.”

Thrust into unemployment, axed federal workers face relatives who celebrate their firing Scrambling to replace their health insurance and to find new work, some fired federal workers are running into another unexpected unpleasantry: Relatives cheering their job loss.

The nature of a cult is that it will turn you against your own family. Your loved ones will cheer as you are led off to the camps because hurting even you is what is necessary to bring on the glorious nation. apnews.com/article/trum...
