A Philadelphia nun named Sister Rose Kuhn drives to a Texas immigration court weekly to sit next to unaccompanied children as young as 4 who are facing deportation hearings alone without relatives or an attorney so that they won’t have to face the judge by themselves. Heartbreaking and horrific.

How come we as the left aren’t clever enough to game the sheer, utter stupidity of the right and their contempt for every silly ass thing they think is woke or lib? “Hey, those lefty Commies say breathing is good for you. Fuck that! I’m not falling for the pro-breathing conspiracy!” Problem solved!

NEWS: The Trump administration confirmed it bombed a girl’s school in Iran. It's one of the most devastating military errors in decades. Trump lied about it. Pete Hegseth gutted the office preventing civilian casualties. 175 are dead. Most were kids. Hegseth should be fired.

The President of the United States posting a video depicting the Obamas as apes is a pretty clear window into how MAGA sees PoC, and exactly their reaction to Black History Month. MAGA is vile garbage, no two ways about it. The time to sweep the rubbish away is coming. ~AdminMatt

BREAKING: TIM WALZ: "If you see these ICE agents in your neighborhood, take out that phone and hit record." "Help us create a database of the atrocities against Minnesotans, not just to establish a record for posterity, but to bank evidence for future prosecution."

The military, the rank & file or brass, is not right-wing. Many lean right. More than society as a whole. The majority are indifferent, PoC, and more progressives than you might know. Stop letting them own the narrative! "A society that despises its military soon will have a despicable military."

... and even was a point in trying to organize a dept in a previous career field, I never was in a position to actually work as a union man. Just applied for the hiring hall at I.A.T.S.E. for D-list (effectively on-call assistants) stagehands, bringing two of my worlds together, trades and theater.
