When I was in school we’d have posters of Shaq and Vince Carter drinking milk and now it’s like hey want to see this weird looking person who gets paid to make your uncle racist
"Drink whole milk, you'll come in 5th place" is an incredible ad campaign.

As you talk about Greenland, please make sure you are talking about the >56,000 Inuit who have called the Island their home for thousands of years. Here are 2 stories that include their voices, concerns, and hopes.

The thing that's really convenient to not know is that nonprofits like Feeding Our Future exist because the nutrition reimbursement program is so burdensome IN THE NAME OF REDUCING FRAUD that a cottage industry exists just to fill out the paperwork on behalf of programs that actually feed children.
Let's review the facts at hand here: A Democratic administration discovered and prosecuted a case of welfare fraud. Republicans are now using this case to smear hundreds of thousands of immigrants and militarize an entire city.

And your conclusion is that Democrats need to do something different?

They did it with the War on Drugs, the PIC, with Iraq and Gaza. They will stoke your outrage out of power and plead their political helplessness in it. The Democrats are a core part of this regime. Dems have been in power over and over and over these last 20 years. The trajectory never changed

They will fund ICE then they will blame you for criticizing them for their electoral defeats. They justify the fascism while fundraising like gangbusters off the angry and the frightened. They are grifters. They are profiting mightily off this situation. They are living WELL right now

An underrated factor in "why don't people in wealthy societies have more kids" is changing societal norms that now expect even older kids to be chaperoned by an adult any time they are in public, and to be chauffeured by a parent as their only means of transportation
Older generations spent a lot less time parenting. Millennial dads spend nearly as much time parenting as Boomer moms did. Millennial and Gen X moms way more.

everybody knows the deal with cops and the mayor and the governor and not a single person in power dares to say it out loud, so we're all just stuck playing pretend and hoping that's good enough to endure fascists till they get bored

we're in a situation where everyone apparently has to fucking play pretend about the dynamic between elected officials and state force and endure not only nothing being done to protect constituents, but still also actively contributing to their harm

It’s wild and appalling the stuff that official government accounts are just posting freely now.
Over the weekend, the White House and the Department of Homeland Security shared posts with a song, "We'll Have Our Home Again."

I dug into the group that performed and popularized it. Its cofounder said his goal was to create "the seed of an eventual government." www.splcenter.org/resources/ha...
DHS, White House shared white nationalist song in ICE recruitment posts
Multiple accounts run by DHS share references to “We’ll have our home again” song, popularized by a white nationalist group, with a link to join ICE.

elected democrats who want their constituents to remain non-violent in their protests of these abuses must actually offer a path for ending the abuses non-violently. they currently are not as a party and it’s a major problem.
🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide.

He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

The people are amazing
At one point today, there were 283 Minnesota attorneys doing a training on how to file emergency habeas petitions to keep our neighbors from being shipped out of state and held indefinitely.

That would be the second largest law firm in the state. And that training was just put together this week.
