Mom. Engineer. Mil-brat.
And still Native.

Oh, that's true. I never said noble. I just said they had a reason. Survival from extermination is a huge reason to throw noble out the window. They're still trying to exterminate us!

For a reason! They saw what the colonizers did. Remember scalping didn't start with Natives. It was used as a way for whites to pay the bounty on Natives murdered

This is exactly why our Tribal governments have been pushing.
Get your Tribal ID.
Carry it with you everywhere.
Also...
People need to stop being racist dicks.

The only time I've ever heard a tank roll down a road that wasn't its routine route was during 9/11. Living overseas as a mil-spouse. That was scary AF.
This? Is embarrassing for all the people I know who've ever served in the Cavs. I feel sorry for the guys forced to drive them.

I'm so proud of you, my fellow Americans. Small towns. Grassroots protests. And I see real solidarity with those in communities.

I heard the towns around my destination had protests too. I missed them since it was a very long drive.
But one town I didn't see any? Yeah. Still Dumpster signs up. Also a town festival with very few visitors (compared to normal). See how that works?

Second town is on a crossroads of two highways. One of them leads to Canada. I could see the crown went down the road but not how many. Town also borders a Reservation and has a very large immigrant farm workers population.

First came a little town with at least 100-ish people. Maybe 200. This town has a population (permanent) of maybe 1000 at best. Summer is tourist season. Lost of older white people who probably protested Vietnam too.

This new ballsy Newsom I'm a fan of.

A new passport is $130 plus an additional application fee of $30. If you are like many, you might need a file search. That's an extra $150.
The people most in need of a passport on their person due to ICE assholes are the least likely to just have $300 laying around.

What about the people who can't afford a passport?
They are expensive for anyone living paycheck to paycheck.

Hell, I'm Native. Card-carrying member of a federally recognized Tribe. They snatch up anyone brown right now. I'M SCARED TOO!
No one is safe with them in power.

Lots of Natives are also on this bandwagon and it pisses the rest of us off. Where you gonna deport me to? My backyard?

There are a lot of people too scared to protest. For those who can, please stand up for them.
We stand with all our neighbors. BIPOC, white, queen, straight. We are America. Don't let them take it from us!

A statistically significant portion of adults in the US think chocolate milk comes from brown cows.
But please tell me again why you support cuts to education.

WA State. I don't want to narrow it down too much on here for safety.

They're also snatching natives because they think we're Hispanic automatically. Being brown is the "crime" they don't like.

I come from a long line of military folks, also.
Showing up, yes. Deploying because they have to, yes.
Illegal orders?
Better stop right there or you are one of them. Period.

I assume the one off the Asian coast is Guam. American territory that (for now) makes you an American at birth but you can't vote.

In 50 years, when we look back at this, all us middle age people are old people and young people are middle age people.
DON'T. FORGIVE. J6ERS. EVER.
They pretended to be the victims when they killed police officers. Now they want to frame protesters as traitors. No!

Let's be serious. They will throw Natives in there before Irish.

That lower test scores thing makes it harder for them to understand how much of a loser they sound like when they spit this venom.

So saw brown people and tried to ram the car. Then fled when they couldn't kidnap them fast enough.
Thugs. They are Gestapo Thugs.
Next, they make up fake charges so it appears legit. Followed with no evidence or due process.

"Both Becker and Levitt noticed some other oddities in the initial DOJ request as well, including numerous typos."
Jeeze. They can even be bothered to freaking proofread. This is the lamest and most ridiculous administration we've ever had. Bully thugs trying to be the ruler of the playground.

My only hope is the people on decision boards for health insurance realize it's cheaper to just pay for the vaccines than deal with sick people.
Not holding my breath though. 😒

Like how do I go back to where I came from? How far back in time is "where I'm from"? We (my people) have lived here in this very valley since before the great pyramids were built. They never seem to have an answer for that one.

"Mistakenly" implies they gave a shit. A brown woman speaking a different language is all they care about.
We call them Gestapo because they act like Gestapo.
