I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

The Americans with Disabilities Act — passed 35 years ago — was not a gift. It was the result of a powerful movement led by people who demanded to be seen, heard and treated with dignity.

The fight for equality is far from over. In fact, it is more urgent now than ever.

For all the religious NUTS, exactly what you are if you believe, a nut; especially MAGAs.
W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee:

“Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

When will the lies and political double talk end⁉️
“What Vladimir Putin did to Ukraine, that’s an invasion,” Ilya Somin, a law professor at George Mason University, explained. “On the other hand, illegal migration, or drug smuggling, or ordinary crime — that’s not an invasion.”
The “Invasion” Invention: The Far Right’s Long Legal Battle to Make Immigrants the Enemy
The Trump administration is using the claim that immigrants have “invaded” the country to justify possibly suspending habeas corpus, part of the constitutional right to due process. A faction of the…

Let’s make this happen‼️ Long overdue‼️ This POS is guilty as sin of flat out corruption and graft‼️ Thomas’s presence on the United States Supreme Court is stain. Same with the beer lover and ACB both of whom are legal lightweights. We cannot afford another Jim Crow high court‼️

NYT, which for all its other issues has been out front on the Trump family billion-dollar graft beat, had another great piece today about Don Jr. and Eric's world corruption tour

I wrote about this yesterday. Why isn't this a huge deal? Who will stop it? My column www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...
The Trump family is taking crypto payoffs in the middle of Fifth Avenue. Who will stop them?
From a Persian Gulf dictator to a trucking magnate, a shocking line to pay off the Trump family in crypto is growing.

I would argue that members of the Ku Klux Klan and the Proud Boys are gang-affiliated. I wonder ‘white’ they aren’t being sent to El Salvador.

This is evidence that the Trump administration is intentionally defying a unanimous ruling by the Supreme Court.

The constitutional crisis is here. Act accordingly.
Senator Chris Van Hollen says he asked the U.S. embassy in El Salvador if they had received orders from Trump to try to facilitate the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia as the Supreme Court instructed, and was told no. @vanhollen.senate.gov

It seems Tesla is detecting vehicles that may have problems, and artificially running their odometers faster so the warranty expires before they have to do any service

African Elephants are my favorite land animal species, by far. During yesterday’s earthquake, my babies at the San Diego Zoo reacted to the quake, immediately protective of their most-vulnerable Community members. Humans could learn SO much from these beauties, if we’d just humble ourselves. 🐘🐘
