#BeyondTheGates #BTG Kat is my least favorite character... Well, except for Ashley and Derek, of course. Kat is my least favorite whole character.

This is why I'm screaming into the void here on BlueSky and not protesting publicly this summer. I've got some duties close to home that I've got to manage first and foremost.
Importance of being there for family, especially kids 🥺 ❤️

After that limp military birthday parade, there was a 100% likelihood that #Trump would find some nation in need of, "American justice" this week.

Ask what the federal government can do to help and show leadership. Instead, Trump calls the governor “whacked out” and says “Why would I call him?” This isn’t strength. It’s cruelty! And it sends a loud message: If you’re not loyal to Trump, you don’t matter. America deserves better.

This is not normal. A sitting president refusing to call the governor of a state after two elected officials were shot, one fatally, is beyond words. A typical president, regardless of politics, would pick up the phone. Offer condolences.

Fucking #Trump on @governorwalz.mn.gov “I think the governor of Minnesota is so whacked out, I’m not calling him. Why would I call him?” after the shootings (NYT)

#BeyondTheGates #BTG Derek: "I picked out a ring that reminded me of you..." Utterly ordinary and unremarkable, without unique description whatsoever?? Just like Ashley!

A protester in Chicago yesterday. I don’t know if you can see it, but his sign says actual patriot.

Ugh. Measles just reached the county where I live. Fuck #Kennedy in the ear.

Nezza says her Spanish rendition of the U.S. anthem at Dodger Stadium Saturday was against the team’s wishes.

She chose to sing “El Pendón Estrellado” in response to the U.S. ICE crackdown in Los Angeles that has spurred ongoing protests.

Dodgers did not comment on singer's anthem, which was Saturday in response to immigration crackdown in L.A. and amid “No Kings” protests.

Good morning everyone

Bravo to Nezza

We are all Americans
Some of us speak different languages

Yesterday at Dodger Stadium Nezza sang beautifully the Star Spangled Banner in Spanish

She sang our National Anthem for Los Angeles
and the horrors of ICE
I am so proud

Did you know that the US State Dept commissioned lots of translations of the US national anthem into other languages? The Spanish version was translated after WWII by Clotilde Arias, an immigrant from Peru living in New York City. The State Dept distributed it all through Latin America. #Nezza

Couple things I learned today:
- Seniors are extremely fired up about this
- "Fuck ICE" is a normie position now
- People are MASSIVELY pissed off about Sen. Padilla being wrestled to the ground in LA
- We all we got, we all we need

NEW: The authoritarian crackdown begins in LA.

This is dystopian. As the dictator’s parade is broadcast in the top right corner, MSNBC’s reporter and peaceful protestors are charged by police as tear gas is fired.

Watch till the end.

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.
