As the world reels from the president's rant and threats of additional tariff chaos, I'd just like to remind the UK that they recently arrested someone who could probably bring down this entire house of cards with very little incentive.

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.

This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

What ICE Should Have Learned from the Fugitive Slave Act Americans took to the streets to defend their neighbors in the nineteenth century, too.

At another point in American history, loosely regulated federal agents violently removed people from their homes or grabbed them off the streets. They were called β€œslave catchers.” newyorkermag.visitlink.me/-vYhFO

Guy goes through a bad break up, blames everyone around him, gets violent, becomes a Nazi. I think maybe Pink Floyd had a time machine and hung out with early 21st century American Republican men.

#Trump has just threatened Westminster with 25% tariffs if they don’t award him Best in Group/Non-Sporting Breeds. Shit’s getting real.

DOJ is out of control. The crime of impeding federal agents requires physical force. Speaking out against the way ICE is being deployed is not a crime.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like RenΓ©e Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

Let’s see, Venezuela take over, and wanting to take Greenland and at home he’s storming states with shock troops. Clearly we have an idiot in office that will kill us all.
