NYC friends: this poor dog was almost on his freedom ride out of the pound when his foster didn't show up on him. He's now in danger of being put down. Do you have space in your home and heart to adopt him? ❤️
Also, lots of animals at this NYC shelter who need a home.

Tanks in the streets. A $45 million ego trip. And a dangerous slide into authoritarianism. The Big Picture has two must-reads this week, one on Trump’s birthday travesty, and one on how we can stop it. Now’s the time to get informed. buff.ly/DbA0NVk

On Memorial Day, Ukraine expresses its special gratitude to the United States and its people. We honor all generations of brave American men and women in uniform who defended liberty at home, in Europe, and all over the world.
When we think about the price that previous generations paid for our right to liberty today, we can only feel eternal gratitude and respect.
As a nation that understands the pain of loss, we know the true value of liberty won in defense of one's own homeland. America's heroes who responded to the call of duty demonstrated to the world what it means to stand up for what is right.
Throughout history and today, true commitment to peace, life, and liberty must always triumph over aggression and destruction. As we remember all generations' sacrifices, we renewer commitment to defending the same cause of good today.
And we thank all Americans who have supported us all along in our struggle for our cause. We will always remember their support and we will always be grateful.

The State of Georgia Dehumanizes A Black Mother Into An Incubator
How Georgia’s Abortion Ban Has Turned a Brain-Dead Mother Into a State-Controlled Incubator
A Black woman in Georgia had a massive brain hemorrhage and went brain dead.
The State of Georgia is refusing to let her die because she was 9 weeks pregnant at the time. They are artificially keeping her alive for 6 months due to GA's abortion ban.
Barbaric.

The state of Georgia is using the body of a brain-dead woman as an incubator. Because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she died, and their abortion ban is from about 6 weeks, they are sustaining her on life support, without input from her family, until 32 weeks of gestation. A true dystopian nightmare.

Cory Booker crosses 23-hour mark in marathon Senate floor speech protesting Trump agenda | CNN Politics
Sen. Cory Booker is holding the Senate floor into Tuesday afternoon, as the New Jersey Democrat continues his marathon speech protesting actions taken by President Donald Trump’s administration.
Strom Thurmond's record is 24 hours and 18 minutes which was done against the Civil Rights Act of 1957 & in defense of segregation. Cory Booker, a Black senator from Jersey, breaking his record to speak out against a white supremacist President would be poetic justice.

Trump signs order seeking to overhaul US elections, including requiring proof of citizenship
President Donald Trump has signed a sweeping executive action to overhaul elections in the United States.
Now Trump wants to make it HARDER to vote if your name doesn’t exactly match on every doc?? That hits married folks who change their names, disaster survivors who lost paperwork, and so many others. This ain’t about security—it’s suppression.
