The site of Graber? It
Is now our favorite.

I guess when Trump said (many, many times) that he loves clean air and water he was lying.
Obscenely rich and greedy Republicans trying to prevent the U.S. from reducing climate pollution from fossil fuels so they can make even more money is the most moronic and destructive self-own in human history.

Everything begins locally! Go to your local city and county council meetings to fight ICE warehouses before they start. You can make a difference.

NEW: Senate Democrats REJECT funding for DHS, which will lead to shutdown of the agency. Keep in mind, ICE and CBP are still funded by supplemental money in the BBB, but it's harder to spend and will deplete those funds. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Putin demanding war end be signed in Moscow, is a very important symbol. It’s to show UKR is a vassal state.

No way Zelenskyy could be confident of his safety.

The war won’t end.

In case you're in the huge majority of Americans who have no idea that antisemitism is rising.
Montgomery County is horrified by the swastika and antisemitic graffiti scrawled on Shaare Tefila in Olney. Our community sends the congregation our sympathy, solidarity and affection. I know anyone trespassing and defacing property like this will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Not at all surprised that racist neo-Nazi Kristi Noem’s full name (Kristi Lynn Arnold Noem) spells out KLAN. Destined by the universe to be white supremacist trash.

🚨BREAKING: Puerto Rico has been part of the United States since 1898, and people still act confused that Puerto Ricans are American.

States that joined after Puerto Rico:
• Oklahoma — 1907
• New Mexico — 1912
• Arizona — 1912
• Alaska — 1959
• Hawaii — 1959

Yet somehow this is still news to folks.

Everyone making noise about Olympic Skater Ilia Malinin (a white dude) pulling off the first legal backflip in competition as if he is a revolutionary skater needs to remember Surya Bonaly (black girl) completed a backflip in the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics and was penalized for it
