Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

These last few days and weeks have really brought it home- words MATTER. Before you say it or share it ask yourself: Is what I'm about to say 🔎ACCURATE? 🔧 HELPFUL? 🔑NECESSARY? Add to the conversation, not the noise. Chill your hot takes to make sure you're helping, not hurting.

"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” ― George Orwell, 1984

Don’t become numb to it or bored by it. This isn’t right. None of this is right.

June 12th is Loving Day, a holiday that commemorates the Loving v. Virginia case, which allowed interracial marriage in all parts of the U.S. NPR readers share how the case changed their lives.

Terry Moran, fired by ABC for speaking truth about a malignant psychotic named Stephen Miller. He chose to put his career in jeopardy & ultimately lost his job. However, he's gained the respect of millions. Let's not forget veteran CBS news anchor, Scott Pelley. Fired for speaking truth to power.

Double.

are those my only two choices?

I suspect in the days ahead we will hear a large number of people saying publicly what no one has been saying publicly. I suspect everyone reading this knows what I am referring to. A POTUS who falsely accuses Democratic leaders of paying for a military invasion of the United States is a madman.

This is the way to stand up to these bullies! Respect ✊

If you're a Democratic elected official who is insisting that law enforcement attacking civilians in L.A. is a "distraction" and we shouldn't take the bait, I'm going to briefly assume you're saying that in good faith and ask you this in response: What is your plan for ICE kidnapping people?

ICE crossed a line in LA

Now everyone will go look up the book and it will make NY Times. #sighs #booksky #writingcommunity

We all currently have to worry about fascism taking over….but otherwise a lovely positive sentiment!

ICE terrorizes our communities. People protest, and now Trump is sending 2,000 National Guard troops into Los Angeles. This is how martial law begins in the so-called land of the free.

In an act of integrity and resistance, a supervisor in the Nashville federal prosecutor’s office resigned over how the Abrego Garcia case was being handled. The charges are bogus, pure political theater meant to justify a wrongful abduction.

FACT: science has shown you can never overfeed a dog so— Me: What are you doing? Dog: (quickly pushing “post”) … uh… nothing.

“The incredible thing about Peterson is that, in writing & speech, he somehow manages to be both a sententious reactionary & a purveyor of postmodern gobbledygook. He is a master of faux-Confucian aphorisms and spouts kindergarten morality with the self-serious gravitas of a prophet.” @thewalrus.ca

💗💐 love to hear a citizen speak so truthfully to these racists!!!!

What a story!

Reminder to ICE: Do not lay hands on American citizens. Video, photos, and personal information have been recorded. Actions have consequences. If you have information to share, email [email protected]. Your safety is our top priority, never forget that.

Zero days since Poilievre has grifted off the Canadian taxpayer.

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor. He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down. The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him. This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies

A little something to smile about.

no it’s actually because of the slavery

Good morning, Resisters💙🦋

It is imperative that we listen to those who have gone through what we are experiencing now in the US, in order to forge our path forward. #oligarchy

The entire world needs to just cut this lunatic off, find other trading routes and move on from this insane asylum.
