Did you see this today?
Anti #ICE protesters carried a MASSIVE U.S.
Constitution through the streets of Minneapolis.
Not a flag.
Not a slogan.
The Constitution.
Thousands marched, demanding accountability and asking whether federal enforcement is aligning with the rights written on those pages.

In incredible news, the European Parliament has voted overwhelmingly for "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women."
Even the center-right European People's Party voted for the declaration.
It will form a foundation for their position at the UN Commission on the Status of Women.

European Parliament Votes Overwhelmingly For "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women"
The resolution, though nonbinding, is a significant shot at those who seek to erode transgender rights on the continent.

Voucher supporters say Empowerment Scholarship fraud is 1%. New records peg misspending closer to 20%.
12News obtained Education Department records showing that one in five ESA purchases—such as cellphones, TVs, and diamond rings—were on the "unallowable" list.

the whole fucking family from trump’s parents on down have been a goddamned blight on this country for at least seven decades

Before Nirvana, before Pearl Jam. There was Tina Bell, and her band BamBam. Tina Bell, is The Godmother of grunge, a mantle rightly earned! She played a pivotal role in shaping the genre during a time when it was predominantly white male-dominated.
