Let it never again be said that a woman with no real reporting experience who fell for a Twitter account called "Official Antifa" cannot be the head of a huge news organization

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

If we really want to use the US military to improve the safety and secutory in our cities, bring in the Army Corps of Engineers and the National Guard to help repair and secure this property instead of terrorizing communities.

It’s official: AIPAC is trying to buy my election to keep me out of Congress.

Apparently, I’m a “dangerous detractor”... by believing Palestinians (like myself and my family) deserve basic human rights.

But we’re not going to let AIPAC win.

Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them. -

Are we willing to stand up and fight back for Immigrants? Transpeople? People of Color? Women? The environment? Democracy? Our justice system? Working people?

I think it’s really magical that we (Americans) get to experience first hand what we did to the Soviet Union when it fell. Poetic justice maybe

No way does Disney deserve our support. They don't gaf about free speech. They saw the damage to their bottom line. The people who pushed back, canceled subscriptions and vacations, and called corporate offices deserve our support and thanks, along with Kimmel.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site

As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

If Kimmel delivers anything less than a full throated defense of free speech and an indictment of Trumpism/MAGA, I am gonna be pissed. Also, a condemnation of ABC/Disney.

I'm old enough to remember when the Republicans went apeshit because they said the memorial for Paul Wellstone was TOO POLITICAL. No merch sold, no fireworks, no attack on the Republicans, just a plea to elect Mondale to carry on Paul's work. www.mprnews.org/story/2017/1...

In 2002, Rick Kahn turned Wellstone memorial into political rally

This month marks the 15th anniversary of the plane crash that killed Senator Paul Wellstone. His close friend Rick Kahn repeated a specific plea during his memorial.

DISNEY: "OK, we are putting Jimmy Kimmel back on the air. You can resubscribe now."

ME: "I unsubscribed because you immorally bowed to fascism. I'm not going to resubscribe because you immorally bowed to finances."
