PERSON OF THE DAY. 15 January 1559. Elizabeth I was crowned Queen of England (aged 25) in Westminster Abbey. She was the last monarch of the Tudor dynasty. The long reign of Elizabeth I until 1603 turned England into a major world power.

This is why we need the files. If there’s information that Bill Clinton had sex with minors, then arrest him, indict him, have a trial and sentence him. That’s America.
Then do the same with trump.

Staying on X now is like saying "I don't approve of the pedophilia, but what I'm I going to do - stop going to Jeffrey Epstein's parties? There are so many important people there!
“X must be held accountable. But I now have to ask, why are so many people still there? Why are MPs still posting there? Why are organs of the British government still using a site one of its own ministers just condemned in such clear moral and legal terms? Why are other governments?”

Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now.
If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.

Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans.
This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota:
“Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.

A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

There are times, when the depression is at its worst, that I keep myself alive purely out of rage and spite. I have a lot of graves to piss on, and I can't do that if I'm dead, so here I remain.

Just went to get my hair cut at a new place, which always makes me feel trepidatious, to put it mildly. I was so happy to discover my stylist wasn't a small-talker. Tipped him 50%. #introvert #SilenceIsSoUnderrated #IDontEvenCareAboutTheCut
