I saw it several times. As a young man in the 80s I was fascinated with all the movies about the Vietnam War. Soundtrack was the entry point for me, having discovered PG with the Security album, but it’s a good film on its own merits.

These children are in tears and, probably, broken for life because after opening the door, ICE took their parents.

Now, they blame themselves for it, as children tend to do.

The lack of humanity from this administration is a gut-wrenching disgrace.

Shame on Trump, Noem, and ICE.

When will we be rid of this monster and his corrupt, genocidal regime? My heart breaks for the innocents of Gaza and for peace-loving Jews.

Thank you for this. I needed a strong reminder of why I cancelled my subscription last fall.

Spinning records this Thursday 3.13 at Newaygo Brewing Co. Featured this month: no snowstorm!!! 🌞 Feelin’ like some 80s-90s β€œalternative college rock,” cosmic/psych Americana vibes, and a bit of soul. Maybe one emo song. Who’s with me?

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.

@maddow.msnbc.com PLEASE be the hero that so many of us know you to be: resign from @msnbc.com as an act of solidarity with your colleagues -- ALL people of color -- who were shit-canned this week by your once-great network in its race to the bottom and capitulation to fascists

"In its simplest terms, the apparent demise of USAID is the result of the world's richest man ending a program that helps millions of poor people. You don't need a Ph.D. in moral theology to see why this is an evil. You can just read Jesus's parables on the rich and the poor."

P.S. This past year, USAID distributed tens of millions of $$$ in humanitarian aid to the victims of Netanyahu's Gaza genocide. Now it will provide $0. But, hey, vote your conscience or whatever.

He has stated a desire to convert our entire Treasury into the fantastical, corrupt, unregulated wilderness of cryptocurrency. For the sake of our tattered nation, somebody needs to take him OUT.

This ketamine-addicted, unhinged, unelected, seig heiling douchenozzle is, at this moment, waging a crippling coup on YOUR federal government, padlocking agencies, firing people, and stealing YOUR personal data.

I have and will continue to. But you know why I say it here ? Because @bsky.app is 30m strong and growing quickly. The collective wisdom and influence of users here is far greater than any individual democrat.

I can't say it enough. Bluesky can be the influence that can counter RW media.
