This isn’t jail...it’s an Abu Ghraib remake. A double-amputee detainee in solitary? That’s not security...it’s sadism. Georgia’s system just proved how low America can sink when cruelty goes official.

I hear people all around me saying, “They are going to crash the economy. Surely they don’t mean to crash the economy.”

I wonder where we would be now if people had believed Anita Hill, or Christine Blasey Ford, or so many girls and women who have been victimized by rich and powerful men.

I know this feels rhetorical, but why don’t we listen to the women?

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

Warnock: A budget is not just a fiscal document. A budget is a moral document. Show me your budget and I'll show you who you think matters and who doesn't. And if this awful budget were an EKG, it would suggest that our nation has a heart problem and is in need of moral surgery

Juneteenth is the perfect moment to remind everyone of two facts:

1. Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
2. Those who prevent history from being taught are plotting to repeat it.

Read this out loud. Read it again. Then teach it to your kids.

I'm a breast cancer survivor. I'm likely to be a cancer patient again. I pray for cutting edge research to extend the time I have with my kids.

This breaks my heart.

It's going to lead to so much death.

We need to keep doing this. We need to constantly remind the media and the people that these are ordinary people, not boogie men criminals. They’re human beings being grabbed by the real monsters who are ICE.

We hadn’t won World War II by May 8th. I know because my family and I were still in an internment camp in Tule Lake, California.

“When Kennedy lies about autistic ppl, he puts them at risk, as they have been in the past. But the attack on difference, the idea that ppl who are different are a tragedy and burden [with] nothing to contribute—that is fascism. It is a danger to almost everyone.”

RFK Jr. is wrong about autism

No, I don't want to "quickly hop on a call with you". I want to bump into you at random on a rain-lashed heath, nod at you in silent mutual admiration as we watch a buzzard gliding smoothly over a dramatic chicane in the river, then get the fuck on with my day.

Journalists: you cannot deport U.S. citizens out of their own country. Do not simply regurgitate the words of the administration if those words are inaccurate. To do so is spreading disinformation. Deportation, according to the govt itself, is for people with no legal right to be here.

A little while ago, my parents' cat Bridget went missing. As the weeks dragged on, they became extremely worried. My dad devised a way to distract himself: he began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up in some of art and music's most iconic scenes.
