Revoking the legal status of Ukrainian refugees is morally bankrupt and sick. It totally tracks with their mafia-esque and kleptocratic tactics though. How pathetic so you have to be to target refugees?

Exclusive: Trump plans to revoke legal status of Ukrainians who fled to US, sources say

I want to unequivocally condemn the disgraceful performance from Pres. Trump and VP JD Vance on Friday. They are trying to rewrite history and are aligning with an enemy of the US. Pres. Zelensky & the people of Ukraine deserved better than what they got and I stand with them. Slava Ukraini. 🇺🇦

Video is shocking treatment considering Ukraine lost so many people due to Russian invasion: "No president in memory has ever erupted at a visiting foreign leader in such a vituperous way on camera, not even enemies of the United States, much less a putative ally." www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

This is utterly shameful and an attempt to erase the history of the LGBTQIA+ community. Our Trans family is as important as any other part of our community and I stand with them.

I think it's worth your time to read this opinion article from one of our neighbors to the North. The threat of tariffs, annexation, invasion, and other utter nonsense coming out of the Trump Administration is going to have real, lasting impacts to one of the most important relationships the US has.

This should concern all of us. Turning over the keys to the Treasury payment system and other systems is giving these people an immense amount of access to personal data on hundreds of millions of people.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.

I know. I was there in those camps.

So Target is blaming their focus on Black, Hispanic, Women, LGBTQIA+ owned brands on their dip in sales huh, and media is just parroting their press release just like they did with the massive "shoplifting rings" ones, when it turned out the most theft was happening inside the house, or checkouts.

Regardless of how the writer tries to give Elon the space to backtrack what he did the fact is he used a Nazi salute. Twice. Those actions have given people on the far right the signal that it's ok to keep coming out of the woodwork. None of that's ok.

Elon Musk either had a slipped-mask moment or is supremely awkward.

Here is the latest Japan Times article that was published Sunday. The recipe is for a warming daikon radish and pork dish accented with marmalade. It's really good - I hope you give it a try!

Want to work fewer days from the office? You could be doing the planet a favor.

Fully remote workers could produce less than half the climate-warming emissions of people who spend their days in offices, according to a new study.
