Four Dems who went to El Salvador 'sought proof of life for Hernández Romero. They didn’t get it. “No one has actually heard about Andry at all since the abduction, including his lawyers and family,” said Robert Garcia, a congressman from California.'

It’s a moral imperative to try to rescue people like Andry Hernández Romero.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

This stuff really irritates me.

Why are Ohio lawmakers wasting time with bills that do nothing but troll antichoicers when they could actually be passing laws that will help the pregnant people that antichoicers want to force to have children. We are so far behind these pointless stunts.

Leaving aside the fact that Trump making federal funding conditional on eliminating DEI will render this question moot, I will give the Times a hint about their question: the Ohio legislation that bans DEIs at schools also requires their classrooms to be safe spaces for Holocaust denial
