Supremes say parents can opt out of letting their kids listen to LGBTQ stories. Can parents similarly opt out of kids listening to stories that DON'T have LGBTQ themes or incidents? 🤣

The Trump regime is deliberately deploying ICE agents at immigration hearings so they can more easily detain migrants.
Armed, masked men abducting people from courthouses —and arresting those who ask why — is the stuff fascism is made of.
