I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

You don't have to care about the Founders. We should have as little reverence for them as they themselves had for all the hallowed things they left behind. Less actually, because they are dead. We are here. They are not. What kind of America do we, the living, want to have?

It's never about the science. It's always about having a legal basis for your fear and hatred of other people.
My husband has taught human reproduction and development to the Cambridge medics for over three decades. When people start banging on about "only two biological sexes" he starts with "which sex: genetic, hormonal, or gonadal"?

Biological sex is not binary. www.scientificamerican.com/article/sex-...
Sex Redefined: The Idea of 2 Sexes Is Overly Simplistic
Biologists now think there is a larger spectrum than just binary female and male

Hell yes this
You know what people tell me when they're dying? To stay with them.

Live your life in a way that you have people who want to stay with you when your time on this Earth is over.

Trump is basically pressing all the “do not touch” buttons simultaneously: mass layoffs, increasing prices, undermining consumer and international confidence. Not sure what else he could be doing to trigger a recession, let alone longer term US decline
March saw the third-highest number of layoffs in U.S. history, and 80% of them were caused by DOGE

This was before the tariffs

It's just...unbelievable

Read this thread. Then call your Democratic electeds (info at ☎️ reps.fyi) and tell them this 👇
There are people who will be turned off by this message, it’s true, but it’s important to note that these are not *lost votes.*—that kind of voter already has a party that gives them all the antisocial hate and destruction that this sort of voter values most, and they like that party very much.

Black Lives Matter fundamentally broke these people’s brains. They couldn’t bear the idea that they might have to tell a different story about this country and thus tell a different story about themselves. They hated it, and now they are using everything they have to never feel that way again.

People say "The best thing since sliced bread" because before slicing it was invented, you had to swallow a loaf whole and you could see it going down your throat sideways while your eyes watered and you banged your fist on the table.

It’s 2024, and the way I have to restart my TV is by unplugging it and plugging it back in.
