In honor of federal employees having to remove pronouns from their signature lines, let’s start referring to the Donald as They/Them and That President. Sounds fair to me.

We think the world will always be how it is now. But I think we need to imagine a world in which there are too few migrants, and many more nations competing to attract them. This is the first in a series I'll be publishing about global migration. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/31/o...
Opinion | Migration Is Remaking Our World, and We Don’t Understand It at All (Gift Article)
Migration is central to our politics and our world, but nobody really understands it.

The madness has begun.
Yesterday, ICE raided a business in New Jersey and detained both citizens and non-citizens — without a warrant. They even detained a U.S. military veteran.

Nobody is safe.

Get ready. Trump is going to fire most of the VA workforce, 70% of which are Veterans, then to "fix" the problems he created, he's going to privatize the VA and send our veterans to expensive, shitty corporate health mills after he slashes health benefits so he and his buddies can get richer.

Remove diversity and you remove equality and inclusion and protection of human rights. Another breakdown of the constitution at work. You are on your own, folks.

Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head.

So, this time I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...
We Are on Our Own

Our political leaders should treat everyone with honor and dignity, regardless of their identity or immigration status.

Thank you, Bishop Budde, for bravely supporting our community and holding our leaders accountable.

Walmart announced today that it will likely be raising prices on consumers because of Trump's economic policies, but Nancy Mace is focused on banning Congresswoman-elect Sarah McBride from women's bathrooms.

They don't care about the economy.

Anyone else think this political show is like watching Voldemort gather his loyal death eaters? And Elon is the horcrux Nagini?
