The United States never has enough money to keep people alive at home but always has enough money to kill people overseas.

I Give You... Baby Squirrels!

It's hard to keep it all in your head. Hundreds sent to CECOT without due process. Protesters and senators unlawfully detained. Thousands fired and whole departments dismantled by DOGE. Grants frozen. Measles on the rise while RFK fires entire immunization advisory committee. Now BO Iran.

There are still over 250 people rotting in CECOT mega prison without due process because of an executive order by our government. Here are some of their stories. No one--citizen or not, criminal or not--deserves to be sent indefinitely into these horrendous conditions without due process.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 63 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Any educators going to the May 17 March for Education in Sacramento? Federal education cuts will result in a 1.5 million cut for my small district (Esparto). We are not fancy, these cuts will mean losing good teachers and programs. www.cta.org/our-advocacy... Want to meet up?

Re: U.S. CECOT detainees, the main q is NOT 'did they ever allegedly commit a crime?' Rather: Is the US allowed to deliver them into lifetime imprisonment in a notorious Salvadoran prison camp without charge, trial, sentencing, or consideration of international/asylum/anti-torture law? Clearly no!
