Real talk: Filmstrips don’t get boutique re-issues. Once they disintegrate, that’s it. Same preservation energy as VHS and vinyl heroes, just a format everyone's forgotten. Help me keep the scanner running?

Correct
Fentanyl. Drug Overdoses, including Fentanyl, are not even in the top 20 causes of death in the USA. Cancer, Diabetes, Covid, Heart Disease all in the top 10, and all have had their research funding cut. They aren't murdering just Venezuelans. However they are killing us much slower.

Today is the 70th anniversary of Rosa Parks' arrest. Six myths: 1) She wasn't old or tired. 42 years old that day, she had a "life history of being rebellious" & had spent two decades helping to turn the Montgomery NAACP into a more activist branch alongside ED Nixon and Johnnie Carr.

Every Democratic elected official should be saying today:

“Kristi Noem violated the law and she WILL face consequences.” Lying about the law is not a defense.
KARL: Did you know about the judge's order when you issued your order for the planes to continue?

KRISTI NOEM: This is an activist judge. We comply with all federal orders that are lawful and binding.
