Miriam* fled enslavement in Mauritania in a heroic middle of the night escape - she found out she was pregnant with her enslaver’s 5th child here. Denied schooling she is illiterate. Today she lives in fear of being targeted by ICE. I’m raising money for her. Venmo is @Heba-gowayed.

BREAKING: We’re suing the Trump administration on behalf of the family members of 2 Trinidadian men killed by a U.S. missile strike while traveling home from Venezuela by boat.
The government must be held accountable.

Unclear to me if this fucking five year old kid getting kidnapped is breaking through outside of the Twin Cities and I don’t want to speak for anyone else but this has really steeled my resolve. This shit cannot be allowed to stand.

in 1939 the fascists of the world threw down a single massive bet: that the free people of the world were as weak as they imagined us to be. that we were nations of shopkeepers, who would fold at one touch of the armored gauntlet from truly hard, deadly, motivated, manly men.

Doubling down. It is not a controversial take to give respect to AP and Reuters journalists in Venezuela, most of who are local or from Lat Am, currently risking their lives, and who are paid for their work — so everyone else can benefit from their reporting.

You have to go through Congress for anything resembling this type of war. Round up Massie and Paul types and have him removed. The people in this administration are on actual drugs and have insatiable bloodlust and bespoke mental illnesses. He has to go, and everybody with him.

I am not a categorical pacifist and would face a hard test of my ideals were my nation ever involved in a conflict I thought was just so I guess it’s fortunate that this is an idiotic and immoral war of choice that absolutely no one should support.

If the United States is responsible for the attacks on Venezuela, this is an unconstitutional cover-up of a secret war & of Trump mass murdering Venezuelans.
In that case, impeachment, conviction and removal is not enough. Trump and his enablers must be prosecuted & punished in a New York Nuremberg

In short - Section 230 as it stands is absolutely core to how the internet functions today, and removing it would generate absolute legal chaos and probably result in the end of all social media, all comment sections and lots of basic internet hosting services. The liability would be insane.
