this is why i keep bringing immigration into talk of putting trans rights on the chopping block. backtracking on their pro-immigrant stance didn't save them in the last election & here they are trying to compromise with the gestapo. "sacrifice a little now so we can fight for you later," is a lie.
New Dems just released our Immigration & Border Security framework—a plan for how we can pass commonsense, bipartisan policies that fix our system & address the issues Americans care most about.

the invasion of Afghanistan is among the most horrific recent chapters of the long history of elite impunity in the US. this coda is grim but fitting - the govt practically explicitly affirming that it should only be Afghans who live with the consequences amid fading public memory of the atrocity
It didn’t even take 6 hours.

so if i understand this correctly, gaines has made her career by publicly calling trans athletes predators and threats to women while completely failing to ever mention even once that her mentor/college swimming coach was sexually assaulting and harassing women on the team while she was there?
Riley Gaines climbed the MAGA ladder by vilifying trans women in sports. Now, teammates are speaking out about the real problems on her team: abusive coaching, sexual harassment, eating disorders. ow.ly/o3wq50XuCzp

you know how "woke" is the word republicans use when they'd much rather be saying a slur, but they don't want to get in trouble? "enjoy the camps / trump / ect" is like that for liberals.

Home of the Bush family.
I associate with the Democratic Party.
I always respected the Bush family while disagreeing with them politically.

Their failure to speak up in this time in history has made me reevaluate my respect for them.

This is my point I have been making for months

They dont care about the law

They dont care about who is a citizen or not

And this country is simply laying down in the gutter sacrificing immigrants as Omelas Abu Gharib children

i'm gonna take a shot every time the, "it's a terrible month to be literate," thought crosses my mind.
Simply being "owned" isn't "horrific" (all wives were "owned"), or do you not believe providing "safe haven" was a form of protection?

By that standard, the Van Daan family that hid the family of Anne Frank were subjecting them to "horrific mistreatment." 🤦

Of all the things to condemn on the house floor… they picked socialism.

Not the genocide in Gaza.
Not the government’s eugenics plan
Not ICE
Not building camps for the homeless
Not tax cuts for the billionaires
Not pedophilia.

Socialism.

And 95 Dems supported it.

Anti socialism and anti communism are proto fascist ideologies and the dem parts are showing what they believe and it’s fascist propaganda not reality.

Hakeem is literally voting for Nazi propaganda
The House of Representatives voted 285–98 in favor of a resolution condemning socialism.

86 Dems joined Republicans in supporting the measure, incl. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.

Remember when, in June 2015, a bunch of liberal queers and Obama told a brown latina trans woman to shut up just because she wanted LGBTQIA+ immigrants to be released from ICE detention? The same ICE that is disappearing people today? How dare Jennicet Gutiérrez care about people! I didn't forget!

UPDATE: In this case—where a TRO Friday hearing had been moved to Thursday—it appears the filing of the lawsuit helped things forward.

The trans woman illegally deported is now back in the U.S., but remains in ICE custody currently. Expedited briefing on her release is set for the coming weeks.

the real "border crisis" is the constant disrespect of Mexican sovereignty and disregard for immigrant lives by the rogue state known as "America"; SICARIO was a documentary
The US accidentally invaded Mexico on Monday, storming a beach and planting DoD “restricted area” signs claiming the land for “the commander,” triggering a standoff w/ armed Mexican security forces, all because Trump’s government can’t even identify a border on a map

www.cbsnews.com/news/warning...
Warning signs appear on Mexican beach declaring area restricted by U.S. as Mexico rejects Trump offer to strike cartels
The signs read in English and Spanish, "Warning: Restricted Area," and had been declared restricted by "the commander."

if you've seen a video going around of Epstein survivors talking about their abuse, you need to be aware that video is promoting World-Without-Exploitation, an organization whose website supports legislation like KOSA, and advocates for the "Nordic model"

they are not your allies.

Harris ran on "I am tougher on immigration than Donald Trump". It was a message she repeated over and over again, each time alienating a large part of her voters in order to appease Republican talking heads who could never be appeased.
