Miles, an Indigenous actor best known for her roles in “Northern Exposure,” “Smoke Signals,” “Wyvern” and “The Last of Us,” handed them her tribal ID from the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation in Oregon. Yet, Miles recalled one agent calling it “fake.”

It still matters.

More than 47 million Americans — including one in five children — don’t have reliable, affordable access to nutritious food. And as the cost of living skyrockets, more families are depending on SNAP benefits, or food stamps, to put food on the table.

A real Christian...

NBC News finds that: -- ICE has shortened its training from 13 weeks to six. -- Nearly half of recruits couldn’t pass an open-book written exam. -- Recruits "are supposed to attest" they can pass the physical-fitness test, which requires them to run ... 6 mph. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Trumps biggest distraction from the files yet

Wow. It's getting serious now. Release the Epstein Files and let's be done with this administration's bullshit.

This sums up their lying perfectly www.meidasplus.com/p/this-weeke...

The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties. Hello? Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party. Enough of the false equivalence.

The Portland frog protester is our Tiananmen Square tank guy.

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.

Still not going away...

Stock up on masks, hand sanitizer and practice social distancing. It won't solve everything, but it certainly can't hurt and will help protect those who are vulnerable. Resistance comes in so many forms...why not frame it as love, too? 💗

after millions of views and shares of my Portland Frog art. (thank you all🙏🏾) I got requests to highlight priests, and chickens, and Chicagoans, and T-Rexes, and more… all of us who refuse to bend the knee. so this is for US. 𝚂𝚝𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚃𝚊𝚕𝚕. 𝚆𝚎 𝚆𝚒𝚕𝚕 𝚆𝚒𝚗.

ANTIFA FLAG

There were never any witches— only men who took pleasure in burning women they called witches. That’s the shape of all tyranny.

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet. They make sure we have clean water. They protect us from financial fraud. They provide healthcare to our communities. They make our government actually work for people. Do not forget this.

There are very few stores left in Portland that aren't made of wood. FYI

Stephen Miller froze after mentioning “plenary authority.” … but what is plenary authority?

California Gov. Gavin Newsom said President Trump is sending California National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon. California will sue Trump over the move, which came hours after a judge blocked Trump's attempt to federalize Oregon Guard troops for deployment in Portland.

It says a lot that Trump can find $20 billion to bail out Argentina, but won't help the millions of Americans who are in real need at home. Thank you to former CFPB Director Rohit Chopra for explaining.

Heard you were calling generals fat when the booze had you feeling brave

If Joe Biden’s “spiritual advisor” had pleaded guilty to sexually abusing a 12 year old girl, Fox would be playing that shit on a loop 24/7.

As if irony isn’t already dead, the Hatch Act violation on the DOJ website, which blames Democrats for the shutdown, appears on the page advising DOJ employees they are subject to the Hatch Act. joycevance.substack.com/p/a-note-abo...

The GOP health care for immigrants lie is an old one. Here’s me six years ago:

Signs of psychosis. No biggie

Without inherited wealth or the family name, these fellas would be stood at the side of the road shouting nonsense at passing traffic.

Ha

Nexstar and Sinclair need to feel financial pressure. Start squeezing.

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

It’s critical that we support the arts…🏆

Ah, a classic. 💗

Somebody at the UN deserves a prize for this

What a country.

On this we agree wholeheartedly.

Reminds me of how the Koch brothers funded the “grass roots” tea party.

This.
