Just want to remind everyone that little moments of joy are so important right now.
For instance, my cat does not understand the human concept of kisses beyond Incoming Nose = Love. So every time she’s happy, she’ll smush her face or shove her nose into ours.
Please share your joys with us.

Cabrera set the record straight:

A close friend of ours was harassed by ICE yesterday. They followed her back to her apartment and were banging on the exterior door of the building. It's good no one decided to let them in. She is a US citizen.
The administration is cruel. We deserve better.

A good ep on regaining trust after administrations cooked the books. If you don’t think he’ll do that after firing the BLS head, recall what Donald’s 34 felonies are for. And that the GOP passed a huge deficit bill and had to raise the debt ceiling.

The fact that the President of the United States posts a fake video of a kneeling Barack Obama being handcuffed and we’re supposed to pretend it’s perfectly normal, everyday stuff shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

How inaccurate claims by Trump were used to justify executive actions
Many executive actions reflect Mr. Trump’s messaging, in some cases closely echoing inaccurate claims that have long been a feature of his public appearances.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I went to the House Floor to stop the cuts to SNAP and Medicaid.
Republicans blocked it—wouldn’t even consider it.
So let’s be clear: they know exactly what this bill will do. And they do. not. care.

Juneteenth is a powerful reminder of how far we’ve come—and how much further we still have to go.
It marks the moment freedom finally reached our people right here in Texas. Our people took what was withheld and built something powerful: resilience, pride, and a legacy we carry to this day. (1/2)
