HEALTH CARE IS NOT A REWARD FOR OBEDIENCE. DUE PROCESS OF LAW IS NOT A REWARD FOR OBEDIENCE. HUMAN RIGHTS ARE NOT A REWARD FOR OBEDIENCE. THESE ARE THE UNIVERSALLY ENSURED GUARANTEES OF A SOCIETY THAT TREATS ITS PARTICIPANTS AS PEOPLE RATHER THAN THINGS.

For fuck's sake, the Meal Team 6 arrived just in time to "protect" and peaceful protest. Not police, not military. Who the hell are they, and who let them on the roof of the court house?

WOW. One of the Venezuelans whom Kristi Noem tried to render to El Salvador's slave prison managed to avoid removal and was able to make it to immigration court, and you'll never guess what happened: THE GOVERNMENT GAVE NO EVIDENCE OF HIS GANG MEMBERSHIP. Due process ftw

For whatever reason this part of the 'kid who killed his parents and wanted to assassinate Trump story' doesn't seem to be getting as much play. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

When government officials spread misinformation about autism, autistic people suffer.

Harriet Tubman dedicated her life to freeing people from slavery and fighting for abolition. The Trump administration cannot erase our history.

Quite literally whitewashing the purpose of the Underground Railroad www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

December 3, 2024: Yoon Suk Yeol, President of South Korea, declares martial law as part of scheme to manufacture conflict with North Korea. Dec. 7th: He apologizes to the nation. Jan. 7th: Investigation begins on him for treason. April 4th: Removed from office.

"One 2019 study found that the majority of Baltimore defendants who were jailed pretrial were never convicted of a crime."

Remember these guys did multiple days about a squirrel that was killed by animal control right before the election as if it was the crime of the century. And now they're dismissing human trafficking an innocent guy to a foreign slave labor camp as no big deal.

200+ anti-Tesla protests this weekend. Elon wants you to believe they were all paid to be there. Elon is lying.

In 2015, Pierre Polievre violated the Elections Act. In 2017, he entered into a compliance agreement that was likely negotiated between his lawyer and Elections Canada. So that they wouldn’t prosecute him further, he agreed to make an admission that he violated the Act in a public statement.🤨

Fodder for novels about our times: 1) Trump Commerce Sec H Lutnick says people won't really notice if SocSec misses a payment cycle: www.axios.com/2025/03/21/s... 2) Lutnick just bought house in DC for $25 million, all cash 3) Seller: Bret Baier of Fox www.washingtonian.com/2024/12/20/b...

Might save a life.

Interracial marriage did not cross 50% approval in the US until 1996, when I was 30 years old. Good political messaging drives opinion, it doesn't follow it.

“I can’t think of anything more vile and small and pathetic than terrorizing the smallest, most vulnerable community of people who want nothing from you, except the right to exist." -Pedro Pascal

"Authorities intercepted 9,600 kilograms of fentanyl at the U.S.-Mexico border, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The corresponding amount of fentanyl seized at the U.S.-Canada border over the same period? Just 19 kilograms" www.yahoo.com/news/whats-b...

39% of KIDS 80% of KIDS in poverty. 41% of BIRTHS Medicaid is Pro Children Being ALIVE.

Copy of early 1940s cartoon by Dr. Seuss satirizing the American First movement. Updated 6/22/2018. For me now the twin horror comes to the fore, not only of the lack of empathy inherent in othering children but in the instruction of that behavior to youths. Hate is taught. Education unlearns it.
