Keith is right:
He’s never voluntarily STFU for five days since he was born.πŸ‘ΆπŸ»
He’s not dead, but he’s not right either. And the more they cover it up the worse it looks.

Big brands are officially worried about American shoppers Makers of our food and home essentials, including Pepsi and Procter & Gamble, are cutting their financial forecasts for the year and predicting lower sales or profits than before.

They should be worried.

We don't like the corporate world licking the boots of fascists.

And, we have less money coupled with rising costs.

So, yes, corporate Ametrica, you should be concerned.

So to sum up the Wisconsin arrest issue:

ICE didn't have a juridical warrant. They only had an administrative warrant.

The DOJ has not convened a grand jury to indict the judge. They only got a criminal complaint before a magistrate judge.

This is ridiculous.

Trump Administration Texted College Professors’ Personal Phones to Ask If They’re Jewish β€œBarnard was not given advance notice of this outreach,” the college’s general counsel wrote in an email to faculty.

The federal government is making lists of Jews.

At Barnard College.

Oxford scholars drank wine and ate chocolates from the skull of an enslaved woman for over 100 years, assuring us the practice ended in *2011*

When we say white supremacy is a death cult, it is meant in the most literal sense.

Doctors at the Bernie & AOC tour in Idaho talking about disappearing health infrastructure in the state.

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

β€œIn Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

It costs less to house people.

$15 MILLION agreement to detain abducted men, Sen. Van Hollen says. That’s our money.

Yet another reminder that we’ve got plenty of money to pay for good stuff that actually helps our communities.
