Target took a $12 billion hit as a result of the boycott. Perhaps businesses will think twice before announcing that they don’t value BIPOC as employees, business partners or customers. I haven’t shopped at target since the boycott. And I’m not missing them. I’m done with American racism! #Boycott

L - The official photo from the Kremlin of US Special Envoy @SteveWitkoff putting his hand over his heart as he greets his friend Vladimir Putin again this week. R - Putin’s latest missile attack killing at least 21 people, including 7 children, on Palm Sunday. Putin’s stooge.

BREAKING: Police say they evacuated Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and his family from the governor’s residence after someone set fire to it. No one was injured. Police said in a statement that the investigation was ongoing but they were “prepared to say at this time that this was an act of arson.”

What if autism is tied to genetics? Or industrial pollution? Or climate change? The FACT is WE DON’T KNOW! And the non-science, ignorant brain-worm guy who’s now in charge of our Dept of Health DOES NOT KNOW EITHER! Let the REAL scientists do their job!

ICE= Gestapo CECOT= concentration camp I will not believe that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is "alive and secure" until I see REAL pictures of him safe in his family's arms. I hope I'm wrong but I think they are just bidding their time... This poor man and his family. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Right or wrong?

People who say Kilmar Abrego García won't make it back to the US act like they're the only ones who thought of that possibility, they don't mention the larger implications regarding due process, and they seem to want people to give up. We can NEVER give up.

The measles outbreak is still spreading in the U.S. And 2 people have died from whooping cough. Agent orange and his confederacy of idiots in HHS are taking us back to the 19th century!

It is the second most visited museum at the Smithsonian. The experience of African people in the United States?cannot become “unknown” no matter how much agent orange wishes it to be. White fear will NEVER destroy our stories or our people. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

What will be your legacy?

I have to admit that the insidious nature of the regime’s policies are beyond imagining.

In 1990, thousands of Americans with disabilities decided to stop waiting for elected officials to act. Their efforts changed the minds — and the votes — of elected officials and resulted in the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act. We can’t wait for our leaders to act. We have to lead.

Any bets on how soon the fascist regime goes after printing companies and bookstores? They’ve defunded libraries already.

“The Trump administration has ordered State Department employees to report on any instances of coworkers displaying ‘anti-Christian bias’ as part of its effort to implement a sweeping new order on supporting employees of Christian faith.”

Yes, I WILL be RTing nearly any post I see on this topic. Same reason as always: local news is ESSENTIAL, and in this case sfgate.com was already a fantastic outlet that's gotten better still by expanding its coverage territory. It's one of the *only* local (or even regional) sites on the list.

"Happy Hookers: findings from an international study exploring the effects of crochet on wellbeing" pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32245337/ Proof that crafters have a good sense of humour 😉 (TL:DR Do crochet - it's good for you. I must learn - I can knit [badly] but crochet is still on my 'to learn' list)

So, technically, the commander was wrong. As long as you are serving in the military, you must abide by the military code of conduct. But honestly, as the country is in the grip of treasonous junkyard dogs, I salute any service person who refuses to be drawn into the political circus!

If Kristi Noem can go down to El Salvador and take concentration camp selfies, then DOJ can figure out where Abrego Garcia is. Just start jailing people for contempt of court until they find out.

The orange anus is destroying the cultural infrastructure of our country more & more each day. But no matter; we will rebuild & have libraries & cultural centers, long after his carcass becomes food for worms! Black history & culture IS American! The default setting is NO LONGER “White Only”.

I’m sad to see grenell, the drump sycophant who now heads the Kennedy center, pick on, especially, Black artists & musicians, calling them names & responding to their legitimate concerns over DE&I with cold nastiness. Of course this is what lowlifes do - attack BIPOC! But keep playing yr music!

The only thing that will end the injustice going on, is We The People. We need to come out in the millions to protest in every state capital, at every Congress person’s office, until they restore the rule of law. We can also do a one-day workers national strike. We can’t go on like this for long.
