BREAKING: Another avoidable American mass shooting.

Early reports indicate 20 people or more may have been shot at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.

It’s never too early to politicize this for a safer America. No other country in the world does this happen so often.

After Marcelo Gomes da Silva was arrested by ICE on his way to volleyball practice in Milford, he made a promise to the men he shared a cell with: He’d be a voice for immigrants unfairly detained.

He's one of Boston Globe Magazine’s Bostonians of the Year.

Here’s a hot take: I don’t want to see lawmakers posting holiday pictures from their mansions — I don’t care which party.

Keep that shit to yourself.

GUARDIAN: “Per head, 🇺🇸 output is six times China’s, and yet, inexplicably, there seem to be more abjectly poor Americans than Chinese. 🇺🇸 inequality is breathtaking… keeps getting worse…”

Wanting to address this isn’t radical.

NOT wanting to is.

Tears for Fears release “Shout” 41 yrs ago today.

The ‘80s, said Roland Orzabal, brought “a lot of fear, a lot of political tension. .. It’s really about empowerment — about refusing the roles you’ve been told to play. It’s an invitation. It’s saying: if something is wrong, say so. Say it loudly.”

For what it’s worth, as a commander and officer it was my duty, moral obligation, and legal requirement to first question and then to not obey any illegal order I was given.

The same is true for everyone who swear their oath.

Hope that clears things up.

The President of the United States just called for my arrest and execution.

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.

This isn’t controversial.

A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

Listen…If y’all want to talk honesty, then let’s be honest about all of it.

The promises, the hypocrisy, the receipts.

Because what you campaigned on and what you’re doing? Two very different things.
