'Molly' hits the road: New PBS KIDS miniseries takes viewers to five reservations - ICT ‘Molly’s Epic Adventure’ features an Alaska Native lead character and premiers Nov. 3

Here is a great way to teach your kids more about Native Americans this month. Molly of Denali–the only kids TV show to feature an Alaska Native character–is on the road for Native American Heritage Month. Molly, the show’s main character, visits 5 reservations.

The reason I bring up sovereign and qualified immunity so often is (1) the system was designed to protect itself and wrongdoing by the government long before Trump, and deemed Trump less of a risk than a government actually answerable to those it harmed;

Erasing the “Black Spot”: How a Virginia College Expanded by Uprooting a Black Neighborhood Sixty-plus years ago, the white leaders of Newport News, Virginia, seized the core of a thriving Black community to build a college. The school has been gobbling up the remaining houses ever since.

60+ years ago, the white leaders of Newport News, VA, seized the core of a thriving Black community to build a college.

The campus location “was almost entirely a racial issue,” said one professor. “I believe they wanted to remove the Black community from here.”

This story is breaking my heart. And making me so furious.

"The fights for trans rights and Palestinians are over and we lost" is something I'm seeing over and over from cis white progressives. And I'm seeing variations of this popping up about racial justice, marriage equality, and disability rights too.

Sorry, but fuck that.

Most people will be released unless they have a hold for another reason like outstanding warrants. They will be given pre-trail restrictions - often things like a curfew and not being allowed near the ICE facility

Some thing of note around people being arrested by the feds in Portland - there is no possibility of bail if someone has federal charges. They will be detained until they have a hearing in Federal Court. Most likely hearings will be held on Monday. 1/2

I'm gonna be a hypocrite for a sec just to ask if we can please stop discussing Swift. She is the epitome of both white feminism and how capitalism sucks the soul out of art & hollows it out. We agree on that. Let's just leave the Swifties alone to cape for a mediocre bigoted billionaire.

My husband was detained by ICE today

Oregon’s Board of Pharmacy, is holding an emergency meeting on Wednesday to discuss a change in protocol for vaccine administration around fall respiratory viruses, including COVID. That change could allow pharmacists to administer vaccines without a prescription, regardless of what ACIP decides.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. — Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

Trump Is Accusing Foes With Multiple Mortgages of Fraud. Records Show 3 of His Cabinet Members Have Them. The White House has targeted opponents, including a Fed governor, for having more than one primary residence on their loan papers. ProPublica found that, in one case, a Trump cabinet secretary got two...

If the Trump administration continues its campaign against government officials with multiple primary residence mortgages, records show there’s another place it could look: Trump’s own Cabinet.

DOJ deputy chief: Government will "redact every Republican" from Epstein client list The deputy chief later said his comments were not based on what he's learned from his role at the DOJ.

Hilarious bit of karma here.
A right-wing "news" organization catches DOJ deputy chief saying this on hidden camera re the Epstein files: "They'll redact every Republican or conservative person in those files, leave all the liberal, Democratic people."
So delightful when they destroy each other.

How Billionaires Sidestepped a Tax Aimed at the Rich Wall Street financiers were a clear target of the tax, but some, on questionable legal grounds, have claimed their outsized profits were exempt, sometimes avoiding hundreds of millions in taxes.

ProPublica identified 17 people who each shielded at least $1 billion in capital gains from the so-called Net Investment Income Tax.

Together, this small group, by collectively exempting more than $35 billion, saved about $1.3 billion in taxes.

Trump Wants To Institutionalize Unhoused People. History Shows That Doesn’t Work. Trump’s plan to institutionalize unhoused people repeats failed policies. Experts say only housing and healthcare can end homelessness.

“Offering safe, stable, and affordable permanent housing, along with voluntary supportive services, has been demonstrated to help individuals stabilize and avoid hospitalization and incarceration. We must not allow disinformation to distract us from the evidence and programs that work.”

If you want to track how democracy died with datapoints, this is a good starting place.

Trump has scrapped the Labor Department's only job training program for low-income seniors, just after his Big Ugly Bill imposed new hurdles for nearly 9 million Medicaid recipients between the ages of 50 and 64.

ICE *already* can't meet their detainment numbers without rounding up children, veterans, people born in the U.S., people with no criminal records, people at immigration hearings, plus academics and visitors with valid visas.

So who do they plan to detain with >10x the budget?

The answer is: you.

Please share and give if you can
