Navigating a "once-in-a-lifetime" crisis over and over. BIPOC. He/Him. Talk to me about gardening, geopolitics, and foods with gravy on them.

I just watched the whole video, and not a single reporter stood up for her. Everyone just pivoted to asking questions on other topics.

This is shameful.

ICE looks to WA tribes to house detained immigrants The Nisqually Indian Tribe says it is turning down a request from ICE to house detained immigrants on tribal land.

The definition of audacity: ICE asking WA tribes to host detention centers.

They got a very polite β€œfuck off.”

β€œThe Nisqually people are not in favor of, nor will the tribal council allow, the detention of individuals by ICE on our reservation or in our facilities.” - Tribal Chair E.K. Choke

Epstein Document Search

For folks (and journalists) who want to search the Oversight Committee email texts, I made a database for searching the 20k text files:

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

If recent events have you wanting to change your party affiliation, make sure your state does not have any primary restrictions. The primary process is the way we can credibly get the representation we deserve on the ballot. Check this link to see how your state primaries.

We need you to shift this messaging away from just Trump to the GOP. This is a problem of American Conservatism, which has always desired the power and control to do what Trump is doing. Our country will always be burdened so long as we validate conservative ideology in America.

So, this deal from the Senate has to go back to the House. The House that Mike Johnson has refused to re-open. He's been dead set on his version of the bill passing. Dealing with this Senate version will mean Johnson HAS to open the House.

Which means having to gavel in and seat Grijalva.

You can only put a people through so many indignities. The end of all of this cannot be the end we saw with American Reconstruction but rather what we saw in Nuremberg. Only by holding those responsible to an actual account will things change.

BIPOCs, queer people, women, and so many marginalized groups have understood what is broken in America. We do not need a stretch of time to reflect and look back because it is fundamentally the same thing over and over - the petty smallness of white America.

I think that superhero movies have done a number of human beings conditioning some people to believe that extraordinary actions are what matter. And if one can't be a superhero, then simple, ordinary efforts aren't worth doing.

And? Do you think crew chiefs routinely let planes in the air if they aren't good to go? Your entire premise is not only wrong, but way to sprinkle in some classism. For a lot of people, military service helps elevate them out of poverty and inequity that intentionally leaves them with few options.

The truth is both that Stephen Miller seems to be the actual president and just saying "President Stephen Miller" out loud often enough might make Trump do something about it.

CNN’s CEO Mark Thompson reportedly told staff to ease off on coverage of Trump demolishing the east wing for his ballroom after visiting the White House.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net
