VOTE 2026 After this picture was taken, we placed our ballots in the safe & secure ballot box, where they will be picked up and taken to our County Registrar of Voters.

Of course Manchester Financial wants a data center. And of course SDG&E will do everything to help make this happen. Not looking good, here in San Diego. voiceofsandiego.org/2026/10/15/m... Thanks @voiceofsandiego.org for reporting.

NEW: DHS agents tracked people observing ICE arrests, photographed them, ran their plates, pulled personal information, and added them to a Palantir database, according to newly unsealed court filings. w/ @regret.bsky.social

My husband asked what the plan for Rikers Island is, once NYC grows the Prison Industrial Complex with new inhumane facilities for incarceration. The only thing I could think of is, for billionaires, either housing or a resort? www.dezeen.com/2026/09/21/d...

Capitalism and the prison industrial complex need to be dismantled, please! folsomframes.com/pages/faqs/

Thousands of immigrants did the hard, dirty work of clearing rubble and toxic dust and debris from Ground Zero. Many were undocumented laborers sent to work every day with no special PPE, and got cancer as a result. Now some of those same people are living in fear of ICE. www.npr.org/2026/09/11/n...

Trump is trying to end the Roadless Rule in all our National Forests, protected lands for all. The comment session is open. There's a link in the article and here: www.regulations.gov/docket/FS-20... apple.news/AQQ9Y8Hm4Q3a...

Seems very pointed that Angela Davis did this. www.wlrn.org/npr-breaking...

The UK women’s suffragette movement inspired and influenced the US movement. Women fought in the US from 1848-1920. Women continue to stand up and act up against regimes of oppression, all over the world. We will not back down.

This iconic 1971 photo of Gloria Steinem and Dorothy Pitman Hughes has always said so much without saying a word. Two women. Two raised fists. One shared fight for equality. Dorothy passed in 2022. Now Gloria is gone too. Two giants who helped change America. Rest in power, Gloria. ✊🏼✊🏾

The Trump administration is considering a deal that would give a small part of Yosemite National Park in California to a Nevada-based private developer, which is seeking to build a road to gain privileged access to the park, according to park advocates.

As Trump drags us into an Iraq-style war in Venezuela, 312 members of the House — including 115 Democrats — just voted to authorize over $900 billion in military spending.

Immigration enforcement has cost an estimated $532.5 billion since 2003. The courts that have to decide every case enforcement produces received a fraction of it. www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/fact-sheet/t...

😲⛓️ “In this growing market, people facing deportation—whether they are detained in squalid camps, forcibly flown out of the country, or agree to leave under the threat of detention—are seen as commodities.”

This free documentary is a MUST SEE. Shuffling people around the US, away from their attorneys and family, away from their Habeas Corpus filings, on a merry-go-round of extremely expensive tax-payer funded charter flights, is a key part of the ICE death machine and hardly anyone is talking about it.

Maybe in San Diego, we could have beautiful public bathrooms. We should try….harder, to take care of people. www.dezeen.com/2026/07/25/y...

We keep moving backward, and people seem to be okay with it all. apple.news/A3HKe6NuIRlG... People also seem fine with Trump's use of the Executive Order.

*Contains details related to suicide* Congress gave ICE & CBP billions of dollars to ramp up detention. The consequences: overcrowded facilities, inadequate health care & deaths in custody. More than 50 people have died in ICE custody since Trump took office. https://bit.ly/4eTUZG4

Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante are irreplaceable. They protect sacred Tribal cultural landscapes, incredible wildlife habitat, world-renowned recreation, and clean water. These places are part of our natural legacy—not for the higgest bidder.

"For the first time ever, a presidential administration now claims that species protected by the Endangered Species Act shouldn’t be safe from habitat modification that destroys where they live, raise their young, or search for food," said Earthjustice attorney Kristen Boyles.

So sad not to be able to trust politicians. At city council, @sdcitycouncil.bsky.social was again very disappointing. Large and small acts of PROTEST drive change, bring awareness, and helps the mental health for individuals and our collective wellbeing. theconversation.com/dont-trust-p...

250 years of inequality, extreme wealth gaps, and destroying the planet. www.counterpunch.org/2014/11/25/w... .......................................So sad and tired of being mad, as a soon-to-be 71-year-old.

Protest: Respect It - Defend It - Use It by Annie Leonard & André Carothers. 2026. Also, reading Freedom Is A Constant Struggle: Ferguson, Palestine, and The Foundations Of A Movement, Angela Y. Davis. 2016. Great reading leading up to 250 years of racism, slavery, extinction, and extraction.
