We had fun at Grand Prairie’s Flight of the Monarch Festival today. Over 800 butterflies were released and several visited our Arkearth booth! 🦋

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7."

@timmiller.bsky.social talked to a veteran who ICE wrongly detained and brutalized

Fundraiser at the John B Sands Wetlands. Amazing place and largest watershed of its kind. I got the amount of water wrong. It’s 10,000 gallons every 15 SECONDS that goes through this huge nature reserve

This massive military meeting is probably about directing logistics, budgets, and operations internally to falsely perceived “threats” to justify a move towards martial law. IMHO

Also, Merlo publicly spoke out against changes Trump wanted to make to Obamacare in his first term

David Martin Burrows @dmburrows.bsky.social · 18d

Interesting note on the Tylenol thing.. Kenvue is the new company which owns the brand. It's CEO, Larry Merlo, is friends with the Obamas. (so, maybe the president's statement on the brand is revenge?.. but that's just a precursory guess)

Remember you're most likely arguing with bots and that the propaganda machine is hard at work making you believe there are more of them than there are of us.
