Speak Truth to Power.....

SEIU-USWW President David Huerta was injured and detained by federal agents in Los Angeles today while observing ICE activity. This is video of his arrest. Statement from SEIU in next post.

Racking up another award this week! Historical Fiction. Pretty exciting

Lee: Would say it would be “illegal DEI” for a lesson plan on the Tulsa race massacre? McMahon: I’d have to get back to you Lee: Do you know what the Tulsa race massacre is? McMahon: I’d like to look into it more and get back to you on it.

Everywhere ICE agents go, crowds and cameras should follow.. They shouldn’t know a moment of peace.. Nothing they do should be easy or without roadblocks.. Disrupt, sabotage and impede their process at every step.. They should be harassed, ridiculed, mocked and disrespected.. It is your duty🇺🇸

Please share far & wide. Please be on the lookout for this vehicle. If you are a backpacker or hiker or biker please assist in searching for these children. Dad is a homeless veteran who suffers PTSD. He had 3-hour court approved visit w girls on Fri but disappeared. His phone has been turned off.

Whoever you are I love you

This is the country we get until we decide hell naw & pick up a history book to learn how to take back this country from those who are already waging war on us the American people.

This is the country we get when thugs and addicts and rapists are elevated to celebrity status. This is the country we get when our only shared value is dictated by tech bros who want us to be automans who work to enrich them.

This is the country we get when people are more familiar with the history of the Kardashian family & Housewives of Name A City than they are of the history of Normandy or My Lai or Fallujah or Rafah.

Violence begets violence. It must be condemned no matter who is perpetrating it - Israel, Hamas, Pro-Palestinians, White Nationalist, or ICE thugs.

Not good news out of Poland tonight as a far-right friend of Trump's wins prez election. Imagine being a historian who has run the museum of National Remembrance and somehow befriending a fascist.

Happy Pride Y’all

The person’s senility that should have been checked was Merrick Garland’s senility. His lack of action gave Trump the keys to thuggery

Iowa, I implore...please don't re-elect this heartless witch. It's pathetic that someone like her, who doesn't have to worry where her next meal comes from, or the fact that she has the best insurance that's paid for by taxpayers. #Resist #Resistance #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue youtu.be/8Bl85BWPZ8E?...

Can someone point out to me an authoritarian regime that allowed itself to be voted out, ever in history? Because I am not aware of one. Which gives me extreme concern that the only plan Dems seem to have for regaining democracy is winning the 2026 and 2028 elections.

There’s poetry in receiving this award twice a decade apart, especially since both books -Mother of Rain & No Perfect Mothers - address women’s healthcare at a time when body autonomy has once again been stripped from females nationwide by patriarchal extremists. #booksky

Memorial Day. A day of remembrance, a reflection of all the happiness lost. The only “scum” is the draft dodger who currently resides in the White House & those who put him there. #memoialday #vietnam #kia #fallen

The truth is that Trump should have gone to Vietnam, should have died in Vietnam, had he not been rich and able to dodge the draft five times deceitfully. He’s no patriot. He should have earned his place in history in Vietnam, instead of deceitfully and feloniously ruining this country.

Netanyahu’s Massacre. @senatormarcorubio ignores this genocide, the intentional starvation of tens of thousands in Gaza. And @whitehouse remains silent as does @gop @franklin_graham & every other leader in America right now. Yet America has benefited financially the most from this massacre.

Dean Phillips has proven once again that he’s not fit to shine Joe Biden’s shoes. What a small minded tiny hearted man he is

The people who’ve benefited most from Russia’s war on Ukraine are America’s defense contractors

Alex Thompson & Jake Tapper are on Trump’s payroll

The current President is taking bribes from anyone who’ll offer them but I’m so glad Alex Thompson and Jake Tapper are not letting that distract them from the fact that the former President who just got diagnosed with cancer is also old.

Taking a moment to remind Americans that Democrats warned you about the terror coming if the Felon was elected. 👉Severe Medicaid and SSI cuts 👉Concentration camps 👉Ignoring the law 👉Harassment of media, university, law firms and individuals who are critical of him “Authoritarianism” #ProudBlue

#GVerse #Attention: Lauren Boebert’s worst nightmare just came true. Her new Democratic opponent Eileen Laubacher is a former military admiral and a badass mom who wants to defend our Constitution. Repost far and wide to send Boebert into a meltdown! #Hooyah

How appropriate that a serial killer was a fan of Donald Trump. Glen Roger’s gave Trump a shoutout as his final words before being put to death by lethal injection. He was a keen admirer of Trump, an equally vile man.

Wonderful event at Paulina Springs Bookstore last night. There are a few signed copies of The Devil’s Pulpit. Call to get your copy now! #booksky
