Getting shown up in the arena of elite impunity by *the British monarchy* is an incredible β€œAmerica at 250!” achievement

Push for iron infusions. Oral iron takes way too long to work.

I was just like you years ago and iron infusions changed my life! I was myself again. I could interact with my children again. I was able to go back to paid work when the opportunity presented itself.

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

Benito said "God Bless America," and then proceeded to name every country in South and North America.

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit

This is the most incredible #SuperBowl halftime show that I have ever seen. Bad Bunny’s celebration of Latin American culture is just the statement of defiance against the Trump administration and xenophobia that this country needed. Thank you.

The Board of Governors decided, unilaterally, that no published textbook in the field of sociology could be used in compliance with the law for an Intro to Sociology class. None.
Victor: There's not a single existing textbook on the market that could be used that would qualify under state law?
Zachary: Correct.
Victor: I'm sorry, that's kind of funny. Like, the absurdity of not a single sociology textbook getting past the censors. I mean, it makes me kind of proud of our colleagues, but...

I do want to shout-out my fellow sociologists, who have collectively created a discipline so woke that not a single one of our introductory textbooks can make it past Florida's censors.

Great work everyone.

Donald Trump is a racist.

Part of the old favorites, specifically in regards to the Obamas, is Michelle Obama as a man. It’s deliberate that they’ve put her face on the bigger, presumably male, ape.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

you will NEVER convince me that an illegal immigrant is my enemy and that a person who would do this to a child is my friend

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Stay free

This is Minneapolis.

Collective trauma, and neighbors helping neighbors.

This is our 24/7 every day lives right now, not just a 10 second news clip.

ICE watch volunteer: "We have shown up day after day for 8 weeks to protect each other and to protect our neighbors."

Here's what ICE is up to in Northeast Minneapolis today. Absolutely heartbreaking.

Warning: video is hard to watch

"You raise your voice, I erase your voice."

ICE in Minneapolis are erasing your rights.
Please share our new video of what's happening in our city. youtu.be/W1dyNcRGRXY

No civil rights violation probe into latest MN shooting, sources tell MS NOW As DHS takes over the federal investigation, current and former law enforcement agents warn that Trump’s DOJ isn’t committed to facts or fairness.

Breaking MS NOW:

Trump's Justice Department has decided there will be no civil rights investigation of the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti, and instead two units of DHS will investigate their own officers and the man they killed.

Trump: "With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that. But it's just a very unfortunate incident."

Was the "catching a stray" comment about paid protestors before or after the murder of Alex Pretti? Either way it's bad...
