Yes people just waking up to what is going on should have realized before yesterday.
Yes this is not the first horror that has occurred, & will not be the last.
But I'm glad they are here with us now & I hope they have reach further into their communities of disaffected people to wake more up.

that moment when you are pretty sure you spelled something wrong, but it's not underlining I need, so you purposefully misspell a word to see if the spell check is lagging or if you actually spelled it right...

wtf is culturally normal even... because if I hear an old white guy say it, I hear "be palatable to old white guys."
Nothing about his is *normal* around me, so he is not culturally normal to me.

California Governor Gavin Newsom said on Thursday that the Democratic Party needed to be “more culturally normal” and “less judgmental.”

conspiracy theory time: but the new DofE rules re: the amount that can be borrowed - I think it has to do with them looking at who qualifies for student loan forgiveness that is income based. It's public professions that qualify for forgiveness when you work x years and they don't want to repay.

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

"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.”

New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people

I truly do not care if Joe Walsh "became" a Democrat.
He's anti-Trump and that's great, but, what he wants to do is make the Democratic Party into what he wanted the Republican Party to be.
Sorry, man, you failed once, you don't get to do it to the Dems now, too.
