you don't have to read graphic descriptions of SA even if the rapist is running the country right now
you don't have to read or watch graphic depictions of bombing innocents even if it's happening right now

Embarrassingly cracked case of the album "Now That I've Found You: A Collection" by Alison Krauss. Cover art shows a soft-focused, upclose shot of the incredibly talented musician against a dark background.
Love Alison Krauss!

Once again I will point out that most deaths in early concentration camps occur from illness and poor conditions. But these deaths are not accidents; this is one of the intended outcomes of a concentration camp.

Under Secretary Noem, ICE has violated our constitutional rights and defied court orders. Two of my constituents are dead.
Secretary Noem just admitted there are still 650 ICE agents in Minnesota, still outnumbering sworn Minneapolis police officers.
