Per the Constitution, THE USA IS NOT A CHRISTIAN NATION. SCOTUS changing laws to pacify far right Christians is a violation of their oath to "support and defend the Constitution." The 14th Amendment ensures all citizens equal protection & due process under the law. That includes marriage rights.
REMINDER: while 42 million people have been plunged into hunger, please do not forget that we are on the eve of the mass nullification of marriages and the bastardization of children when the Supreme Court overturns gay marriage on Friday.

God help us all.

42 years ago today, President Satan.....I mean "Reagan" (Freudian slip) signed the King Holiday bill into law, designating the 3rd Monday in January to be MLK Jr Day.

it was introduced 4 years after his assassination by Rep John Conyers, and over the next 15 was spearheaded by Mrs King and others

There’s no opt-out, no warrant requirement, and almost no oversight. In a nation built on personal freedom, the idea that the government can identify, track, and store your data simply by pointing a phone at your face should alarm everyone citizens and non-citizens alike.

Let’s talk about ICE. This post is long, but it’s worth reading to understand how to protect your right to privacy.

It might sound extreme, but everyday Americans may soon want to consider face coverings for reasons far beyond health or fashion.

SNAP is in fact another subsidy to corporations that don’t pay a living wage to their workers.
The average US taxpayer spends $36 a year on SNAP

You know what they spend on corporate subsidies? $670

Poor and disabled people who need food are not the problem

If you’re angry about “your money” feeding people but not angry it’s giving tax cuts to the wealthy?

You’re doing their dirty work.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Here’s what it means in plain terms:
The U.S. Constitution gives states (not the president or the federal executive branch) control over how elections are run, including voter registration rules. While Congress can set certain standards for federal elections

A federal judge in Washington issued a permanent injunction blocking the Trump administration from enforcing a rule that would have required proof of citizenship on federal voter registration forms. The requirement stemmed from an executive order Trump signed in March.

Years of US police impunity conditioned USians to accept this as acceptable.
Here’s a disturbing video from Evanston of a federal agent hitting a man on the ground as people yell that he can’t breathe.

Actually, seeing a man of color, getting scared, and calling The Police, is pretty typical racist behavior

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

Being laid off feels especially hard when I remember how many times I put my job first before my own health, well-being, and family. When I worked weeknights until 11pm and on weekends to hit production quotas, during PTO, and filed three stories the day before it happened. There's a lot of grief.
