The message we must convey is simple: We are not intimidated. We will not stand for this. We maintain our power, the power of The People.
This is how we resist. We dance in the face of tyranny.
We wash ourselves of defeatism & inspire our community to recognize its power, its worth, & its future.

Hey, this seems massively important since immigrants don’t get access to medical welfare.
It’s basically the same as the Sullivan and Ellis Island systems of discrimination.
Expect ethnic names to change for many who successfully immigrate here.

IF you didn’t vote or cast your ballot for anyone other than Kamala Harris,
THEN you contributed to the re-election of a racist criminal and the demise of the U.S.
Simple as that. We have binary system, a zero sum game. Your vote or abstention either helped or hurt BOTH candidates.

People—particularly men and White people—who are still supporting Trump and this regime are not good people.
To continue to support the tangerine tyrant is to admit you’re okay with all of the horribleness that he has perpetuated, and to accept that horribleness makes you horrible, too.

I’d argue that this is what should have been done to begin with, but America extols White comfort over all else.

I no longer hold a safe space for white people to unlearn bigoted and biased behaviors. I've long chosen not to put up with anyone's sh*t across the board. That's the only way some of you hard-headed mothers’ fckrs are going to learn.

I’m just throwing it out there that the Senate and POTUS have to sign the release of the Epstein Files.
I’m not even remotely expecting to see them until after 2026 midterms.

But what alarms me in all this is how the girls who were victimized by these men are largely forgotten. I want us to find ways of centering them in the discourse.
