No community should be forced to bear the weight of a system that profits from human suffering.

Private, for-profit prisons have no place in a fair and free democracy—and especially profiting off the suffering of an inhumane and undemocratic detention system.

Period.

I wish all figures of authority cared about moms and babies. But some don’t. Some even want you to hurt. And those are the people who cast doubt on the vaccination miracle that has allowed so many of us to live longer and better.

DEMS. Do not cave. Do not seize defeat from the jaws of hard-earned victory. DO NOT BELIEVE ANY PROMISES THE REPUBLICANS MAKE. They are not acting in good faith.

JB #Pritzker just went nuclear on #Trump:

“Donald Trump & his bootlickers have torn down the Department of Education from the inside. Books are being banned. History is being erased. And Donald Trump and his cronies can f*** all the way off.”

Too late now, but wouldn't it be great if, tomorrow, in every major city, we had a flash mob of choral/orchestras start the protest/March with the national anthem? Damn, why didn't we think of this sooner. Was DC , NYC, Chicago, LA, Detroit, Denver ...he'll, why not Paris, London, Tehran?

Administrators at Indiana University baselessly fired the student media director and ordered the student paper to cease its print edition, so it'd sure be a shame if this excellent digital front page were to be widely shared today

"The broader goal is the militarization of major cities before 2026 elections... Next year, I fear that what they're gonna do is deploy these folks to polling places & say they're protecting the vote. Trump knows without these breaches of the Constitution, he's gonna lose Congress." - Gov. Pritzker

KBJ, dissenting, says she "cannot abide our repeated, gratuitous, and harmful interference" while "lives hang in the balance."

FYI Americans
Government shutdowns are not normal. No other developed country shuts down its government because it can’t agree on a budget. The previous year’s budget is just automatically extended until a new one is passed. If that doesn’t work, an election is called.

Trump thinks he's a king and Republicans refuse to negotiate.

That’s why we’re 5 days away from a Republican government shutdown.

Democrats are ready to pass a bill to prevent this. But Republicans would rather increase your health care costs, than do their jobs.

It's the guns. In the USA ,it's always the guns. It's an addiction; a psychopathy. We're deeply irresponsible. We lust for the power of the firearms until we and our loved ones fall victim to their destructive and annihilating force. It's not the targets it's the guns. IT'S THE F×÷KING GUNS.
