The Grandmother Tree being as old as the USA itself is such dark symbolism. As is killing it despite its cultural significance to the people on whose territory it grew for ten generations.

FDR got the New Deal by sacrificing Black Folk. Some Democrats are hoping to retake Congress by sacrificing Trans Folk. This is not new.

You're right, If that is true and not just rumor. I had not heard that part. Which, frankly, has a whiff like rumor about it to me. Just kind of "too good to be true." There is also wild plague in part of Russia, btw, just like in our U S. Southwest. One theory is that's where it originated.

Pneumonic plague can kill very rapidly after symptoms appear. If medieval and early modern accounts are to be trusted. It also might not be recognized in time, if physicians aren't alert to look for it.

Or maybe not even day. Historical accounts up into the 1600s mention people taking suddenly ill in the midst of their usual activities and literally dropping dead in the street.

"The government doesn’t track how often immigration officers detain U.S. citizens" Sure, why would they? That might look bad. It's sorta like how they no longer track if someone murdered is trans - "if you stop testing you don't have any cases" is Trump's favorite tactic for this.

Rape culture is a social environment in which sexual violence is normalized, minimized, or excused. It includes attitudes and practices that blame victims, treat coercion as ordinary, make light of rape, or protect perpetrators from accountability. By those metrics, YES, the U.S. has a rape culture

Gavin Newsom is so bought & paid for by corporations. Carrier of last resort means people in the mountains can have phone service including 911. Cell is useless there. But carrier of last resort cuts telecom profits because it requires things like guaranteed uptime. You know, to save lives.

This is so symbolic of the trend for the last few years. Republicans attacking and erasing trans people, and Democrats not calling them on it or pushing back, so the GOP advances and gets worse and worse. Democratic leaders, we don't have anyone else. Stop being complicit for political expediency.

These facts are VERY similar to the case of Mohamed Jama in MN. They were looking for a 5'5" guy and snatched Jama, who is 6'5" (his lawyer did a big Perry Mason moment to have him stand in the court room). These rulings may help the victims sue.
