Imagine you had millions of people in your life who ignored everything you ever said but would show up once a year and make a huge deal about your birthday, claiming they were your biggest fans.
Crazy, right?
Anyway…Merry Christmas.

If ICE comes into your workplace dont let them single anyone out or separate citizens from non citizens. Stay in 1 group, especially if there are people present who are at risk of detention. Hold hands & lock arms if necessary. Know where it is safe to hide or easily escape from if it gets to that.

The last time Indiana won an outright Big Ten title, 1945, the leading rusher was George Taliaferro.
The next spring, he was the first Black player to be drafted by an NFL team.

Will someone release the video so we can shut down these disgusting excuses?
WELKER: Lawmakers say the 2 men appeared to raise their arms potentially to surrender. Why did Admiral Bradley interpret these actions as anything other than them trying to survive?

Duckworth: "It is a war crime. It's illegal. No matter how you put it, it's all illegal. I've been shot down behind enemy lines. Under the laws of war, you are supposed to help render aid to that individual ... you're not allowed to go back in and kill them."

Disabled people do not owe you their medical history.
They do not owe you their diagnosis.
They do not owe you an explanation.
Benefits are exceedingly hard to get and the process is punishing & dehumanizing.
No one is doing it for fun.

When I taught Civics, I used Supreme Court cases to trace our expansion of rights to demonstrate democratic values.
If I were still teaching Civics today, I would need to place the concepts of 'precedent,' 'stare decisis,' and 'rule of law' in the trash bin.
This SCOTUS is corrupt.
