I get this, but here's where I'm at:

Trump & Vance are the worst of us. America is bigger than them, and they win if we let them define us.
Team USA is the best of us. It's filled with Americans MAGA hates—first-generation + immigrants, LGBTQ+ athletes, people of color—& I'm gonna root for them.
I really really want these athletes to have a great experience, be competitive and perhaps win a gold medal, but, honestly, the thought of hearing "USA!USA!USA!" during their games kinda makes me cringe. If we were any other country the IOC would ask us to march under the olympic flag.

We are moving now folks. A lot of bad and a lot of hurt, but they are losing. Their tactics are radicalizing more and more and the only thing that can set us back is apathy. Let’s stay motivated!

Courage is contagious. Let’s keep going.
wow -- with Trump standing behind him, a man (not sure who he is) offers this prayer: "We pray that he would be mindful of the poor and that he would be invested in the alleviation of suffering happening in the families preparing to bury their loved ones in Minneapolis."

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

@governor.ca.gov I think this is an important study to review to help inform you regarding trans athletes and sports participation.
Trans athletes may not have fitness advantage in women’s sport, landmark study finds
Findings suggest physical performance in trans women converges toward that of cis women over time

one thing the trump era has made clear, i think, is that the american people themselves are far more committed to the values of our founding documents than our elites

Taking away the issues of racism, misogyny, the destruction of democracy, and contempt for the poor, what are things that get you irrationally mad at the president? Mine is the historic erasure that is taking place. Is it on the level of the key issues listed above? No. But it fucking pisses me off

Not really sure an issue should be described as split if it's essentially 60-40. Or that the lead quote should be from the 40 side. Or that said quote should insinuate that Puerto Ricans are not American.

Privelege isn't something we should feel guilty about unless we don't utilize it in a way that lifts those who have been negatively impacted by the way society has installed this inequity. Norm is an example of how to utilize such privilege.
But I just started being active helping out an organization in another part of my life and it’s a stark reminder that while I’m fairly connected as a privileged person trying to help, for the people I am helping, this new institution might be the only place they know of or can trust to help them.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.
