The question is still unanswered. Where are the children, their parents and family. Disappeared. In 2025.
Where are the children? So many unaccounted for. Cruelty. Terror. Scarcity. Anonymity. Fascism at work here.

Don’t look away. This is being done in your name. Mine too.
Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about.
What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars.
We're paying for the torture of children.
I know this is beyond grim, but we must let people know about this!

I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

MAGA Implodes over Kristi Noem’s “Stare Down” with Man in Chicken Suit
A good New York Times piece on Portland nevertheless demonstrates how the conventions of objective reporting fail to accurately capture the bad faith driving pro-Trump propaganda.

My hope too. This will implode. How it restarts is the question.
I hope smart people are quietly brainstorming how to continue this country if/when the GOP is voted out of power because there's no going back. The destruction is already too overwhelming. It's going to take some very creative thinking and a lot of nerve to do it.
Is there an FDR in the house?

W/ all due respect, Congressman, this is about so much more than healthcare. Are you saying when the gop “caves” and grants the Medicaid extension, you will be satisfied? When masked goons are pulling children from their beds and zip tying them inside a freezing van- this is about so much more.
The shutdown fight is about your healthcare.
Here are the facts about this healthcare fight, and we will and must win it. 🧵

This is such a good movie! Don’t pass this up!
THE LIFE OF CHUCK star Tom Hiddleston guesses the movie based on songs from iconic dance scenes.
