This person is now very sad and saying they regret their vote now that half the Hispanic students at our school didn't show up today.
Had a pretty liberal English teacher colleague become a Trump supporter after RFK Jr. endorsed. I think that was a bigger deal than many suspected at the time.

According to some white wealthy homeowners on Nextdoor, removing some free street parking on one side of a street is a “civil rights” violation. I wonder if they know about the immigrant abducted a few blocks over? #Petaluma #Privilege #CarBrain

Fullerton California police policy to “not intervene” with immigration enforcement means that a masked and armed ICE agent is free to threaten to shoot a person recording him. ICE should be subject to arrest for illegal violent threats, not let go. abc7chicago.com/post/fullert... #Fascism #ICE

This book is titled “Disabling Intelligences” for many reasons. First, because so-called “AI” is built from historical commitments to the excision of disability from the classification of humanity.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

Greenery alongside cycle tracks cuts the risk of flooding by managing stormwater locally, the hedge also makes a nice barrier between bikes and motor vehicles, reducing spray from motor vehicles during rain, as well as improving the look of the street.

We just wanted to say thank you to everyone! ICE agents keep lying under oath, and you’re the reason the truth is coming out.
Your videos and documentation have been crucial in revealing the truth behind those claims.

Grateful to spend two days on the Klamath watching chinook, liberated by dam removal, return to streams from which they’d been precluded since the Titanic sank. Fish are everywhere, in numbers that stagger the mind & locations that biologists figured would take years to repopulate. Too beautiful.
