Denver, CO local. My husband and I are always looking for more queer friends in Denver and the surrounding area.

A picture from the summer of 2024 of my husband and me.

Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."

Anyone seeing this in the mainstream media?

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

REPORTER: Do you support repealing Obamacare and what's your healthcare plan?

MIKE JOHNSON: We worked on repealing and replacing Obamacare back in 2017. I still have PTSD from the experience. We know that American healthcare needs dramatic reform. We have lots of ideas.

(So, no plan)

Crazy that they managed to still have the marathon while it's a war zone!

Congratulations to all the runners today at the Chicago Marathon!

I hope you’re taking a moment after crossing the finish line and enjoying all that the best big city in the nation has to offer.

I thought our military leaders knew better than to take illegal orders. Who's in charge?

Not quite factual. They will be paid but not until after the shutdown is over. It will be retroactive pay. It is the same for our active military, unless they are able to carve out a rule that keeps them paid during the shutdown. As much as I hate this administration, this is false.

Still No Kings: Millions to Protest Trump On Saturday

A coalition of civil rights groups expects the turnout on Oct. 18 will be even bigger than the first nationwide protest held in June, which by some counts was the largest in U.S. history.

ICE behavior includes cruelty to children.

#FuckICE up!

Joshua Reed Eakle 🗽 @joshuaeakle.com · 2d

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

A 15 year old boy with autism went missing earlier this week

He was selling fruit with his family in Springbranch when he disappeared

They filed a missing person’s report & begged the public to help find him

Turns out he was in a Houston ICE detention facility

They kidnapped a disabled child!
