The United States is now officially allied with Vladimir Putin and Russia. We will fund Russia’s genocidal war machine in exchange for Putin helping Trump and the Republican Party in the midterms. One of the most shameful and disgusting days in the history of this Republic.

Regardless of the legality of posting armed national guard members at drop boxes, whether the boxes were open yet, or whether drop boxes qualify as polling sites under the law; the optics are what matter. Lawful or not, it’s overt, intentional voter suppression.

Yesterday, ICE agents in New York shot Oscar Belgal in the neck while his son was in the backseat. This horrifying violence isn't a surprise — it's a predictable result of this rogue agency's brutal mass deportation drive. Enough is enough, Congress must stop these ICE raids NOW.

All that groveling to fascism by Stanford and they're still on the hit list. Universities don't bring in foreigners to undercut US wages; they do it for the same reason NBA teams do - to beat their competition. Should the Spurs send Victor Wembanyama home too, to make a spot for an American?
