Maybe you’ve seen me on Spoutible or TikTok.
Warning: I have little tolerance for the Bernie Bros. and none for the “Not All…”crowd.
Here is what you’ll find here:
- truth telling
- hard conversations
- justice, equality, & equity
- uplifting BIPOC women & marginalized communities
- joy

“Gov. Gavin Newsom is now the resistance leader of the Democratic Party like it or not. This doesn’t mean he will be the next president or even win the nomination in 2028. It means he is taking control of the narrative and leading on messaging.”

It's interesting how the majority of White women weren't "brave enough" to vote for Democrats in the last three presidential election cycles.
Remember these words…
“I will vote for you if you are brave…”

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the ‘deportation’ of a 2 year old US citizen. It’s NOT a deportation.
I’m not sure what it is. A kidnapping?

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.”
He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.”
Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up.
Marriott still has my business.

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:
—Pioneering cancer researcher;
—*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
—Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
—"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.
Read it.

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them
Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

I think this bears writing plainly: the reason all of these government officials and law enforcement agents are willing to break the law as plainly and unrepentantly as they are is because of pardons.
They expect to be pardoned. We expect them to be pardoned.
There is no law today. Only power.

We've seen videos like this before, but usually when you see a tearful wife pleading with the kidnappers who have taken her husband, she's not talking to the U.S. president
Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie.
