ICE kidnapped a 5-year-old and sent him alone to a facility in Texas. Hell isn't hot enough.

/6 ICE is a monument to totalitarianism, lawlessness, and bigotry. It should be ripped out and woodchippered root and branch and replaced with something focused on the concept that you can’t defend the rule of law by burning it down.

Best shithouser we’ve had, and I say that with great respect.
In a recent interview with the Urban Pitch, Felipe Martins reflected on his career in full. 💪🏻
When discussing his time in MLS, Felipe made sure to mention Austin FC, describing his time in Austin as a different experience where the players helped the brand new expansion club connect to the city.

What an amazing person.
It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

AUSTIN, TX: Austin Animal Services urgently needs dog fosters and adopters who don't have another dog in the home because they have a highly contagious dog flu on campus and can't exercise the dogs appropriately. Sick dogs will heal faster in homes & unaffected will be safer. Please help if you can!

As far as I know, yes. But how could you possibly trust this administration to follow the law? So one side of any permitting deal is extremely reliant on future hopes, while the other side of said deal gets immediate support to put every shovel in the ground they can, right now
