I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it.

I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.”

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.

“He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.

“Collection of Handwritten Letters from Children in Detention Center” sounds like an exhibit in the Holocaust Museum.
1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

Life is too short to make slop! We didn't get born to just regurgitate everybody's preexisting biases!

US history is a real undiscovered country. There's wild stuff that's been going on in our nation & shaping our politics that we just do not talk about. That's what's in here.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

I live in DC and I'm not famous, so it was a really big deal for my art to be featured in the Washington Post a few times and to speak at the Kennedy Center once 😞

The destruction of these organizations is far from the worst thing happening right now, but goddamn it, evil billionaires suck 😣

My current cozy little hobby is reading up on the Nuremberg trials.

One of the key things they did was use Nazi officials' braggadocious speeches as evidence.

Give a speech taking credit for annexing Austria? Ok, that'll be a conviction for annexing Austria.
As a Springfield, Ohio resident, I'm particularly touched that Judge Reyes used a screenshot of Kristi Noem'sTwitter feed 🤣

Another question I came here with was: how effective are the whistles and honking? Does it stop abductions? And the answer is, surprisingly to my cynical self, yes, and often. I have talked to so many people who have successfully interrupted kidnappings.
