Bankruptcy is not the ideal for anyone, but this alternative is one that the most vulnerable #studentloan borrowers should at least know about.

Let’s talk about something not many people are chatting about and what’s actually happening right now.

You might wonder why Imran Ahmed and the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) suddenly became targets of the U.S. government. The honest answer is that their research hit where it hurt.

They must not be given a moment of peace. Ever. Shame them. Shun them. Call out their evil deeds.

WHERE ARE THE PEOPLE!?

Where is Congress? Where are they?

I want to film this for my kids & my grandkids. I want them to see the day democracy died in Washington, D.C.

These are a few of the replies to the Sociopath in Chief’s horrendous Truth Social memorial post to Rob and Michele Reiner. He’s shedding followers every awful day for his deranged behavior. He can’t sustain this level of depravity much longer. We cannot let him.

Memorializing this here, you know… just in case… forgive me for not doing the alt text… it’s too disturbing even for me… but he’s been blocked and reported to LinkedIn.com

And the image below has been cropped by ME to remove the most graphic imagery…

It was nice of these refugees from the Trumpified DOJ to release this right as I'm wrapping up the draft of my book on the Civil Rights Division. Right into the conclusion you go.

On the 68th anniversary of the Civil Rights Division, former employees share an open letter decrying the near-destruction of the division’s mission and expressing the hope to one day rebuild it.

Kudos to Cinnabon for putting its money where its mouth is and terminating this employee. #Employers have an obligation to ensure safe and respectful workplaces not only for customers, but for their employees, as well.
