Two more deaths in ICE custody were confirmed today, bringing total to 25

These are just the ones we know about

There’s others, like Randall Esquivel, who become deathly ill in custody but get deported before they die

I always supported legal assisted dying until I watched “Better Off Dead?” on BBC and seen how it’s weaponized against POC, the poor, the mentally ill, etc. Totally changed my perspective.
A woman in Saskatchewan needs surgery for a parathyroid issue and is being offered MAiD instead.

There’s no one in the province who can perform the procedure and the government won’t pay to send her elsewhere.

This is why disability advocates warn about assisted dying

It seems as though Netflix has won the bid for Warner Bros.

Paramount tried, and based on the last couple of years lets not assume anything.

But this is a big deal.

Zohran Mamdani standing beside the President of the United States just said that the US is funding Israel's genocide and yet can't take care of its own unhoused children on live television.

I never thought I'd see something like that in my lifetime

Does someone literally have to die before these “outbursts” merit a banner headline? Or even then, will they counsel us not to be alarmed—to consider the context? These people are going to help contextualize us into dictatorship. trib.al/LzJFnyZ

Those claiming Dems should retreat on racial justice aren't hard-headed realists, they're pushing against the electoral tide rather than leaning into it. The story of Gen Z isn't about racist backlash or red-pilled young men. It's the most racially progressive generation in American history. 🧵
