I read a smart thing about marking up vile things before reposting them, so the brain is signaled before reading and we aren’t normalizing them by giving them more oxygen. So, something like this, from me with no particular online skills? Tips for better marking?

It’s not bad enough that ICE is assaulting immigrants on the streets of America, kidnapping them and disappearing them. ICE is also sexually abusing straight and LGBTQ women.

Speak out and spread videos like this one to bring awareness to these human rights violations.

It’s up to us.

Kind of wild that while food assistance was withheld from millions of families, one Trump-supporting billionaire (Ellison) saw his net worth grow more this year than the entire SNAP budget. And the YTD gains of the other four richest men would’ve fully covered salaries for all 2M federal employees.

REPUBLICAN Rep. @repchiproy is rightly APPALLED that hagerty & @marshablackburn and others snuck a provision to let senators sue taxpayers for $500,000 MINIMUM for being investigated as part of Trump’s insurrection into the government funding bill.

Insane corruption.

📌I'm in Virginia doing some reporting, and came across this paper today in Waynesboro, a can-do Red town in the center of the state.
Read the headline.
I've talked with Democrats here who are furious the party they finally voted with caved to Republicans just five days later.

It is disgraceful.

Dreamers were once obvious candidates for a path to citizenship. Now, they’re getting picked up, detained, and set for potential deportation.
Then they came for the Dreamers
Immigrants brought here as children were told they wouldn’t be deported. Now, they’re being targeted anyway.

Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about.

What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars.

We're paying for the torture of children.

When I was pregnant, I tried to eat well, stay healthy & protect myself from undue stress because the baby could be affected.

For this reason, ICE had a long time policy not to detain pregnant people.

But now they are detaining them, brutalizing them & denying medical attention.
