Remember who this celebrated woman is

Polymarket, the gambling app that lets users bet on just about anything, was being investigated for violating money laundering laws.

Then Trump became president. The DOJ dropped its probe. And Don Jr. (who was an investor) got hired as an advisor to the company.

Funny how that works, huh?

I'm sure that this is fine.
No biggie.
Nothing to see here.

Good to see that many Dem elected officials now want to be seen getting involved in the cases of immigrants who have been wrongly detained by ICE.

Let's spare a word for @vanhollen.senate.gov, who did this for Kilmar Abrego Garcia back when wise pundits said this was politically dangerous.

😭

Burn it all down and launch the ashes into the sun.

The two CBP federal agents who murdered Alex Pretti have been on the job for 11 and 7 years respectively.

It’s not a lack of training issue, it’s a culture of violence and lawlessness issue.

If you’re still voting to fund this, you’re condoning it.

Such blatant corruption — which the media will, of course, totally ignore.

AAAAAHH...🫂

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhh.....😔

This is America.
Abolish ICE.

Still can't believe you didn't have enough respect for the man to pronounce his name correctly on air, but who expects credibility from their news sources, right?

Watching this on Global National and wondering why no one cares about the credibility of the newscasters?
Mount-BAIT-en? Seriously? It's Mount-BAT-ten. 🙄 You learned how to pronounce Netanyahu, you can learn how to pronounce Mountbatten, ffs.

Mine taught me to be comfortable in my own skin, in my own self. We stood up for each other when no one else would.
I'm glad we had the best of humans in our lives. They enrich us in innumerable ways. 🥹🥰

I'm glad he was surrounded by love, as I'm sure his memory will always be.
I didn't get to say goodbye. He made a last-minute decision to remove his medical pump before going out on stage to perform his last number. I can't listen to it without bawling.

He was one of those lights, too, like your person. He was warmth and understanding that came with no judgment, just love.

Sounds like my person. 🫂🥹 Lost to a different disease that couldn't be controlled, he was facing a dbl lung transplant and was scared. So he left doing what he loved most, surrounded by those who loved him, but still suddenly. 😢

I'm so sorry for your loss, too.
I'm not religious, or even spiritual, but I dig the ancient Greek myth of "split-apart"s - what many call "soul mates". He was my platonic split-apart, my other half. Sounds like your person was yours. 🫂

Welcome to America.

Thank you. He was an amazing person, with a kind and loving soul. I was lucky to be his bestie for 8 years.

For my bestie, who should be celebrating his birthday today.
I miss him.

ICE claim that a man shattered his skull running into wall triggers tension at a Minnesota hospital Intensive care nurses immediately doubted the word of federal immigration officers when they arrived at a Minneapolis hospital with a Mexican immigrant who had broken bones in his face and skull.

“There was no way this person ran headfirst into a wall.”

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

This is America.

I'm kinda surprised that I actually understand most of these. 😳

Yeah.
Once can be claimed as a mistake. Twice is a choice.
Choices have consequences.
