This. This. This. This.

We need healing.
Not revenge.
A lot of people think the world can be made better by identifying the bad people and making them suffer in exactly the ways that we suffer. I understand that urge. It may bring some kind of catharsis. But we all need to understand that it doesn't actually *solve* anything.

“In the last week, more than 200 veterans have volunteered to attend immigration hearings with Afghans who worked with U.S. forces during the 20-year war in Afghanistan…”
Hundreds of veterans volunteer to attend asylum hearings with Afghans
The effort began after a former Afghan interpreter was detained after his San Diego asylum hearing this month.

Your Cherokee words for today.
The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

The number of manifestly psychologically unwell people in the highest levels of this administration should be unsettling to the world.
Most of this “press conference” is this lunatic yelling at the media. This guy is so obsessed with his press coverage that he can’t even function.

This is a Hall of Fame reader comment on a very reactionary op-ed about Zohran Mamdani's victory that was published in my local paper today.

Following the escalation in Iran, I’m keeping a close eye in consultation with federal authorities and @ilstatepolice.bsky.social.

There are no known threats to our state at this time.

I’ll continue to receive briefings as we remain vigilant to ensure the safety of Illinoisans.

I just want to say for the record that when the history books are written centuries from now, I believe the election of Donald Trump in a free and fair election in 2024 will go down as one of the most senseless and self-destructive own goals in human history

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Following the President’s action in Iran, California’s State Threat Assessment Center is actively monitoring for any potential impacts in California. While there are no specific or credible counter threats we’re aware of at this time, we urge everyone to stay vigilant and report suspicious activity.
