I’ve spent the last month interviewing people expelled to Costa Rica under the “invasion” proclamation.
The treatment they were accorded at the border by CBP is some of the worst I have heard in 6.5 years of interviewing asylum seekers.
Reports to come— some of the hardest I’ve worked on.

Our government is going to get us all killed.
This is at least six kinds of stupid.
You’re assuming any significant number of birds HAVE immunity (unlikely), that recovered birds recover in any salable way (dubious), that the long-term-sick birds don’t infect humans (improbable), AND that the virus doesn’t mutate (impossible). 🧪

RFK Jr.’s Prescription for Bird Flu on Farms: Let It Spread

The governor of Kentucky talks more clearly about protecting LGBTQ+ children than the governor of California does.
Beshear: When I vetoed the nastiest anti-LGBTQ+ bill during my election year, I explained why I did it. My faith teaches me that all children are children of God. I wanted those children, who were being hated on, to know their governor cares for them… my faith tells me that’s my job

You handed them the ball and now you’re mad. You’re still ageist and sexist and racist.
Back Black Women Now and We can take the Country Back.
Your white whining and save us bullshit is embarrassing.

“MPs in Hungary have voted to ban Pride events and allow authorities to use facial recognition software to identify attenders and potentially fine them, in what Amnesty International has described as a ‘full-frontal attack’ on the LGBTQ+ community.”
It’s authoritarianism powered by AI. So chilling.

A lion is a hilarious animal mascot for the bathroom monitor lady because if a female lion is exposed to testosterone, she will in fact develop the appearance and behavior of a male.
