Trump’s agents grabbed the wrong man, a Montana dad of three, with no warrant. A judge said stop. They kept going. A president who ignores judges should be impeached. Agree?

It sends a very clear message that the Trump's DOJ, FBI, and Republican-Administration are going after Illhan Omar's immigration paperwork (that her father filled out when she was 17) rather than doing ANYTHING to prosecute the Epstein Class or protect the victims of the Epstein Class.

Yes. This is why conservatives have inhibited accurate history education in schools: 1. They don't want widespread knowledge among white children about the horrific things their ancestors did in the name of racism. and 2. They also don't want the full acknowledgment that might lead to healing.

There are a lot of small men with a desperate need to feel powerful, and they are attracted to movements that promise them/give them power over people they feel are inferior to them: Black folks, women, immigrants, etc. The same feelings that built the KKK built MAGA.

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020 — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.

DILLEY DETENTION CENTER NUMBER 2 Call it a “staging facility” all you want. The contract says detention. There’s playground equipment behind the fence. And Dilley has already held children far beyond the roughly 20-day Flores limit. Now they’re building “Dilley 2.” We know what this is!

“Tech companies like Meta want us to believe that the AI boom is inevitable, and we all might as well get on board. But I’m a nurse, and my job is to advocate for my patients. Even without these new data centers, Louisiana has seen enough death and destruction.”
