Reséndez’s The Other Slavery (2016) is the most complete and compelling narrative on Indian slavery ever published. And again, Wakara is one of the most important figures Reséndez’s chronicles.

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

Dems have spent the past two months saying they're fighting to address the crisis of spiking healthcare costs and now they're caving for a deal that does nothing to address healthcare costs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The McGintys, who own the McMinnville Grocery Outlet, tried to offer 10% discount to all SNAP recipients. But when the Regime told them no, they came up with a go-around:
Extending the offer to ALL customers.

Feds told Oregon grocers they couldn’t offer 10% off to SNAP recipients, so they got creative
The honor system is in place at three Oregon stores, now offering discounts to all who need it.

This is a good and vital take.
Mamdani’s win is a warning for media:
Better get some leftist contributors or you simply won’t be able to cover/understand what is happening around America.

Hey NYC people who say you'll leave because of Mamdani. Send me the keys to your apts, brownstones. DMs open. I know 100s of families who would love to live in a city with universal childcare, public transit.,
Or, just give them to the first NYC family you see as you flee to Florida.

Love seeing global initiatives like this — South Korea’s turning all large parking lots into solar farms ☀️ Brilliant use of idle space, shade for cars, and clean power for the grid. Would love to see it extended to anything bigger than a single carport, worldwide. #Solar #EnergyTransition #BESS
New national law will turn large parking lots into solar power farms
Starting this month, parking lots in South Korea with more than 80 spaces will be required to install solar canopies and carports.

We’re in a strange limbo where secret police are routinely beating, disappearing, and shooting everyday people in public, but they’ve not yet consolidated enough power to stop us from talking about it on social media. That imbalance prob can’t last. Either we roll them back or this gets rolled up .

Attorney General Pam Bondi says she has retroactively appointed former Trump attorney Lindsey Halligan as a "special attorney" for DOJ and has "ratified" all of her actions to date, including her presentations to the grand juries that indicted Trump's foes.
