And the other shoe drops. Why didn't the DA do more? Because the cops who took the statement took a shitty statement. And why didn't the DA just say so in the first place? Because he's 100% reliant on those cops for his job. Surprise, surprise.

I also like this explanation, i.e. they simply forget women’s sports exist when they don’t need them as a cudgel against trans people, because actually “it never occurred to a single one of us that a man would go to a women’s basketball game” is an even more stunning self-own

Women are supposed to carry pepper spray, whistles, and special ice cubes, and let friends know where we are at all times. Men don’t even have to have scripts ready for turning down invitations to mass rapes. Make every man a mandated reporter, and prosecute them for standing by.

What's hilarious is that Kai here, who has had the same job for at least 20 years afaik, thinks people are getting interviews in the first place. THEN he believes having "any damn beverage at all" at said ✨mythical interview✨ means that candidate should remain unemployed & unemployable.

For every Molis Augustave, there are 100s of unknown migrants being disappeared by this administration. "We Are CASA staff called on Trump as a man of God to follow the parts of Christianity that teach generosity and to keep Augustave in the country."

As a white woman, I held my tongue when it came to Rep. Crockett. When she made the transphobic "butch" comment to MTG, I let other folks give her shit. Same with the "hot wheels" crack about Abbott. This is strike 3. I am SO HAPPY I'm in Rep. Lee's backyard, because Crockett is TOXIC.

We were heartbroken to learn from our community partners at We are CASA in Pennsylvania about the detention of Pastor Molis. He is one of our own — a Pennsylvanian advocate and organizer in the fight for freedom, justice, and community advancement.

Pastor Molis should be home with his family".A white background graphic with a picture of Pastor Molis, a Black man in a Casa hoodie, holding a megaphone with text that says, "Pastor Molis spent years showing up for York. He organized alongside our communities. He supported Haitian families. He served his congregation. He helped others find their voices and build their power."A white background graphic with text that says, "Molis Augustave is a father, husband, pastor, community leader, and We Are CASA organizer who served York Pennsylvanians. Trump's cruel and destructive deportation agenda abruptly ended Temporary Protected Status for Haiti, causing Molis to lose the protection and work authorization that had allowed him to build his life in PA and support his family."A white background graphic with text that says, "Take action for Molis. Sign and share the petition. Support his family. Spread the word".
