I am many things- a mom, a military spouse, a community volunteer, a nonprofit operations/program manager, an avid skier, a cat herder… but really I’m just one in the multitude. My opinion is my own, but I like to think it’s at least educated.

This is from an actual Republican Congressman, from the party that is also locking kids in cages in a concentration camp in Florida, hoping they try to escape and get eaten by alligators.

For whose who were curious what a book award-winning paper from a white supremacist University of Florida law student looked like, he's posted it online. It's as horrible (as scholarship, as political theory) as you imagined.

if you're trans or black or muslim, everything you do is considered political, but if you're a christian terrorist, you're just an apolitical part of The System (derogatory)
This is continued journalistic malpractice from the @startribune.com normalizing a violent white male suspect. He owned a private security company called Praetorian Guard, traveled overseas to preach against abortion and LGBTQ+ people, and attended a bible college that preaches "violent prayer."
Suspect showed few signs of political extremism before lawmaker shootings
Friends and associates say Vance Boelter, who was apprehended late Sunday and charged with murdering a state lawmaker and her husband, was mild-mannered and did not appear to be fixated on politics.

Farms, restaurants, and hotels are now subject to ICE raids again, with intense pressure on ICE to hit 3,000 arrests a day. Miller remains in charge.

We can only make our Union stronger by learning about our history, acknowledging our mistakes, and applying the lessons of our past to our present.
The regime has posted signs at Manzanar, the WWII concentration camp for Japanese Americans, asking visitors to report "negative" historical interpretations. Hard to imagine a positive interpretation but it's probably just an excuse to shut down the park.

Signs to police 'negative' history went up at Manzanar. Historians are nervous.

If their leadership was clever they'd make the uniform of the day Service A or Blue Dress, have them carry any weapons in a rear carry, and then go like its Fleet Week and party with protesters. Over in hours as they go (drink) shot for shot with union members & the Marines join the union. Win
