If you do nothing else today take 5-10 mins to read this.

It captures the confusion, fear, leapfrogging mind hit by being stolen from the street by masked men

But I kept thinking how much finer 🇺🇸 would be right now if the women inside these horrendous camps were outside & Trump et al inside
"How is it possible to feel both unlucky&fortunate at the same time? How can suffering & compassion coexist in the same environment? This narrative of human suffering, set in 2025, is filled with tears and resilience. It is a story of women. It is our story. It could very well be your story too."

One haunting example: Margarita from Kherson. Russia forged her birth certificate and placed her in the care of Sergei Mironov — a top Putin ally.

This isn’t just displacement.
This is identity theft on a national scale.
This is genocide — in slow motion. 💔🇺🇦

I served my country in the Navy. I fought corruption as a federal prosecutor.

I resigned when I saw the Trump Administration abusing our justice system to benefit themselves.

Now I’m running for Congress. Because we all deserve better.

The most disturbing part of this is that only when he criticized Jewish people was the student disciplined. He could freely call for the death & disappearance of Black people via rescinding the Civil War amendments & apparently that’s just good scholarship.

Experts told PBS News that there are ways to ensure older adults get the quality and type of care they need, but most require more resources, not less.
