Does anyone remember they did the same thing against the original citizens of America, the Indigenous peoples and supporters at Standing Rock who only wanted to protect their water?

That’s crazy

More and more Americans are voicing their outrage at the tactics being deployed by federal agents in Minnesota. But it’s important to understand the broader implications of what this administration is doing, and the threat it poses to the basic freedoms of every American.

When will the indigenous peoples who were here before any of us white folks, get top billing?

Agents keep detaining Native Americans— especially if they live outside the reservation boundaries. (This Standing Rock tribal member in Minnesota was released at 5 am the next day.)

This red shouldered hawk let me take several close snaps. A lot of birds have of late. I don’t know why. Do they sense my existential despair over our threadbare democracy? Probably not. But I am grateful for every little gift, such as this hawk, that temporarily stops my compulsion to doom scroll.

I've lost too many hours on keeping up with the stories of our planet's pedos. It's supposed to be the job of our government to control evil. I'm taking a break from the internet but, my thoughts and prayers will continue for an end to evil.

Did Colorado Republican, Boebert really have a secret meeting w/ D.T. yesterday? 🤦🏼‍♀️ Once people compromise their principles, there will be no end to further manipulation. I almost feel sorry for her but, at her age, she should know better and she did get herself into this mess. 🤮

Something I’ve noticed is there seems to be a sort of pervasive assumption that the status quo has gravity. That there’s a natural, comfortable way things should be and that deviations from the normal state of the world will correct themselves in time. But as a paleontologist, I know this is false.

A new poll conducted by The Economist and YouGov, surveyed 1,656 U.S. adults and gave the late-night host Jimmy Kimmel a clean 16-point lead over Trump in favorability. Kimmel: “I am more popular than the president of the United States.”
