Sometimes I forget just how divorced from reality the #GOP is until I see videos like this one. It’s chilling. I can’t believe #StephenMiller so naturally believes that #Greenland must belong to the #US. Like, he delivered this rhetoric so casually. #Project2025 is alive & thriving.

I think my least favorite quality in a person, one that is so often praised as an asset or virtue, is: "doesn't take no for an answer." We're living through an extended nightmare of what that looks like when brought to its logical conclusion.

At San Antonio City Council, Dolores Huerta framed this moment for what it is: historic.
Moving elections to November aligns voting with working lives and family realities.
Election Day is when people choose who governs their lives.

#Russia is not a monolith, obviously. In fact, the country has many good people who disagree with the #Kremlin.
I often think about how #Muscovites responded to the invasion of #Ukraine — downright enraged.
Where are our protests? Where is our fury? Is it still being scheduled on Meta?

Aggression against sovereign nations is not a public health strategy to deal with drug problems that our country enables—if this even is about drugs. Good heavens.
Trump says "something is gonna have to be done" about Mexico and President Claudia Sheinbaum in response to a question about whether the Venezuelan strike was a "message" to her government.

My god, this is horrible! My initial instinct is to beg for forgiveness & mercy from this transgression, but how can anybody? We are all complicit in this disaster, even if we didn’t vote for it. What are we doing to stop this madness? Spreading “awareness”? Re-posting from our homes?! Is that it??
The US has carried out a series of attacks across Venezuela targeting airbases and military bases. Venezuelan anti-air systems appear nonexistent. #VenezuelaInvasion

Sorry to Kanye this, and imma let Mayor Sheffield finish, but… #SanAntonio not only appointed but also elected a black woman mayor 12 years ago, and we now have our second POC woman mayor (who is also LGBT [the 2nd in the nation])—and did you see us in the news? Or is it because we’re in purple TX?
So anyway.
The first Black Woman Mayor of Detroit was sworn in today.

There was once a time when San Antonians could get around the city in a way that's a little more evocative of the Bay Area than the Alamo City: the trolley.
