I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

Can reporters please start to confront ICE and Trump spokeswomen (unfortunately it’s always women) who wear a cross while spouting lies and cruelty? Take off the cross!!

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.

No one has heard from you in 43 days.

As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Did anyone else wake up this morning and get a shock when they discovered that the NYT relegated Senator Booker’s historic speech to a buried audio clip? Please raise some Cain!

I have participated in many government audits. The idea that four or five freshman programmers could audit the USAID department in two days is ridiculous. A true audit with CPA's would take six months to a year minimum. Everything that comes from the White House is a lie, Everything!

I've been seeing a lot of people on the left and right talking about the 2024 election as if it was a landslide.

So I made this chart to put things in context.

Trump's win was one of the smallest in modern history.

Friends, can we get together and just block the MAGA trolls on this platform? No engagement — suffocation. Thx.

In twenty minutes my 67th birthday will be over. There are so many things to be grateful for. Staying out of negative places like X and finding Bluesky is just one. Living in a gorgeous place is another. Good-night, all!
