“ICE now murdering children” is the only acceptable headline or messaging on this
"Three US citizen children from two different families were deported with their mothers by ICE Friday morning. One of them is a 4-year-old with Stage 4 cancer who was deported without medication or the ability to contact their doctors" www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...
Three U.S. citizens, ages 2, 4 and 7, swiftly deported from Louisiana
The cases have renewed concerns that the Trump administration’s expedited deportations are violating the rights of both citizens and noncitizens.

I so clearly remember being in an ACLU canvassing office with a bunch of other young people the day Obama said, yeah, actually, no.

We won't close Guantanamo after all.

It was such a moment of betrayal, that place was such a famous house of evil.

And now it will be a concentration camp.

Here is a photo of a trans non-binary biologist (me) holding a bird (Eastern Towhee) that is likely a bilateral gynandromorph-- a fusion of cells with female-type chromosomes and cells with male-type chromosomes in one bird!

"The US is no place for Nazis!" Since when?

I really wish more people knew this country's history, especially the affiliations of those who held various forms of power.

You can't create meaningful or lasting change by being ignorant of the past and how it shapes the present.

Hala had a dream to study graphic design, become a professor, and start her own company. Now her dream is to get her remaining family (two brothers) out of Gaza. They need passports, and money that will aid in relocation and Ahmed's medical care.

The Great Lakes are 21% of the world's fresh water, and supplies it to over 1M people. The animals, the trees, etc can't afford the cost of this project either.

It would be great if everyone helped to make the Michigan Senate listen to health over profit !
Hi, please sign this petition

You can be from anywhere, but bonus points if you're from Michigan! The state Senate is going to vote on this soon. Sign this petition AND CALL THEM and say you don't want your tax dollars going to this project.

Sometimes coalition governments do work - great that a party has stood up against the planned licensing for #DeepSeaMining in Norway. It is a delay, but a key one ...

Congratulations to all the Norwegian groups working on this
