If you haven’t heard of MTC (Management Training Corporation) then you might want to look into them. They’re making unbelievably huge profit off of ICE incarcerations.
Their concentration camps are starting to multiply. They won’t allow ANY on site inspections & their history of abuse is horrible.

In an unforgettable Veterans Day moment, former President Barack Obama surprised dozens of Korean and Vietnam War veterans as their Honor Flight landed in Washington, D.C. The veterans, fresh off their flight from Madison, Wisconsin, were greeted by President Obama himself.

Perhaps it’s my Pollyanna imagination,
but I’m hopeful that not only is the anger deepening,
the politically apathetic are waking up.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.
A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.
When will party leadership learn this lesson?

😲 Today, the yearly cost of Arizona's universal voucher program reached $1 BILLION.
$1 billion in taxpayer funds are being siphoned into an unaccountable program that primarily benefits wealthier families who always chose private schools.

There will be another 60 vote Friday* on the garbage shutdown deal. If we can convince just one Senator from the 52 republicans and 8 Dems that voted yes to flip, we could still stop this. Please jump on the phone today, call them, and share this widely.

🚨 I pledge to NEVER step foot in a Walmart again. If I cannot afford it or find it elsewhere, I do not need it. White people MUST take a stand. This openly hostile contempt for black people cannot be tolerated or dismissed. I am not waiting for a national strike - I am DONE. Who will join me?

I attended a Rapid Response Observer Training & HIGHLY recommend everyone do the same.
Focused observation by Rapid Response Observers is an important action in stopping the ICE & the havoc it wreaks.
ICE must be met with resistance - by being recorded, questioned, & entered into a database.

This is an absolutely insane administrative process. Within the space of a week, states were told by judges/White House
*no SNAP benefits
*half benefits
*full benefits
*pause provision of benefits.
Result is chaos, uncertainty, and uneven access to benefits depending on where people live.

NEW: The Trump admin told states it must immediately "undo" the work to provide full food stamp benefits, or face penalties. The feds sent this in a late-night memo, only adding to the chaos and confusion around SNAP. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/09/b...

Took a photography 📸 class at the #DesertMuseum today. The class included access to the “Raptor Free Flight” rehearsal. Got some great rare practice photographing flying 🦅 birds. Harris Hawks, Chihuahuan Raven, Great Horned Owl. The public demonstration is highly recommended. #tucson #birds #arizona
