For Jesus’ birthday this year, he’s asking for affordable housing, universal healthcare, and for people to stop using his name to explain why they’re being cruel to strangers.

WOW. They're not going to air their special on CECOT. I'd like to know who made this decision, and whether the federal government had a hand in it.

ICE - aka Stephen Miller thugs - are creating havoc and pain in Ohio RIGHT NOW.

We are not helpless and we must peacefully resist these illegal intrusions.

Find guidance in this thread!

Commit. Support. Share.

An Australian trauma surgeon, who is a friend of a friend, said in a group chat that in her entire 20-year career she has only treated TWO gunshot victims.

TWO.

Can any American trauma surgeon who has also practiced for twenty years say the same?

I highly doubt it.

Remember this film? Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas is a quiet little gem of pure Jim Henson magic. It's a 1977 cult classic following two hardworking otters (so nothing like Steve and Brad) entering a talent show to buy each other Christmas gifts!

There is so much disinformation on this site tonight about the Epstein files, Bondi, the plea deal, and more, including AI generated photos.

I feel like I’m wielding a legal fly-swatter.

Don’t believe everything you see or read on the internet.

Keep in mind that there is a lot of illegitimate traffic here and elsewhere when we’ve had a big win.

Today the Epstein Files Transparency Act passed the Senate unanimously and the House with but one down vote.

Texas maps also got thrown out.

Don’t fall for the naysaying.

At a campaign-style rally in Iowa, Trump used an antisemitic slur while referencing unscrupulous bankers. Isn’t that the kind of thing he claims to be “fighting against”?

That’s exactly why they’re going to the new concentration camp in Florida today.
Maybe they'll stage more photo ops of Kristi Noem posing in front of prisons full of migrants in order to get Trump voters to not think too much about losing their Medicaid
Occurs to me that here JD Vance is pretty openly telling MAGA voters who are set to lose health coverage due to Medicaid cuts not to think too much about that eventuality. It'll all be worth it once they get to see lots more migrants detained and frog-marched on to deportation planes.

The so called "Alligator Alcatraz" is a concentration camp, call it what it is. Use your adult words. The goal is to isolate victims so they can freely abuse them. #3E #EndImpunity

Nearly nine months after Hurricane Helene devastated North Carolina, people in some communities are still struggling to find fresh food.
9 months after Hurricane Helene, food scarcity is still real in western North Carolina
The town of Swannanoa is a mess after Helene. Some businesses may never reopen — including the only grocery store. "Swannanoa is a food desert," says the head of a nonprofit that brings in fresh food.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%. 

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

There are many things in this short existence of ours that I will never understand but middle-class and poor people voting for people that continually screw over middle class and poor people while simultaneously rewarding the wealthy - That’s something I’ll never begin to wrap my head around.

This is very important. Share it far and wide. “I am requesting an attorney and invoking my right to silence.” STOP STFU SAY NO MORE.

Practice saying it out loud and then shutting up.

You may need it, including if you are stopped returning to the US.
If you are stopped by Trump's ICE goons, or any other kind of cops:

I INVOKE MY RIGHTS TO SILENCE AND COUNSEL AND WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MY ATTORNEY PRESENT.

Memorize it.

And don't let ICE in without a JUDICIAL warrant. No, administrative warrants don't count.

A woman in Ohio was arrested after her pet raccoon named Chewy was found holding a meth pipe in the driver’s seat of her car.

Yep.
