Over the coming months, keep in mind that multiple studies have shown that immigrants — both those in the U.S. legally and those who are undocumented — commit crimes at LOWER rates than U.S. citizens.

The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

Pam Bondi was involved in a custody battle with Hurricane Katrina victims over a St. Bernard she adopted in 2005 after the dog was separated from his family during the storm.
The family had been trying to find the dog and Bondi refused to return him.

This should terrify every American. It doesn’t matter where you stand on immigration. Using our military as a domestic law enforcement tool at mass scale will destroy its core purpose, turn the American people against them, and damage the institution for decades.

Why do Trumpers want to abolish the Department of Education? Because it’s in charge of prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race and sex in schools that get federal funding, a policy Congress set in 1975 through the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
