Prison abolitionist, civil rights activist since the third grade, proud lapsed Catholic, mostly Irish, and Scottish, I will continue to be impossible as long as those who remain possible are possible
@karaswisher.bsky.social I don’t know any serious progressive who doesn’t criticizes bad actors/actions just because they are black or brown. Re Scott Galloway accretion to the contrary. He sounds like Bill Maher. Ick

My wife was deported and I lost my job when they shut down the factory because of tariffs. But at least this year I know I won't have to hear "I Have a Little Dreidel" at my kid's Christmas concert.

"When I picked up my granddaughter from the federal agents, she had a dirty diaper, a bruise on her face, and was developing a rash. She was exhausted and cried… My heart aches knowing this could happen to others, to my kids, or even me, despite being U.S. citizens.”

Democrats would really like for ex Republicans who helped to build this landfill would quit fucking lecturing us.
