@malonespeaking.bsky.social Hi! Hope you are well. Are you still in the business of helping high school students figure out college? I have a rising senior (my daughter) who could use some guidance and advice.

Talking with them is one thing, it's the human thing; unless he's also pushing back on the lies they tell then he's squandering an opportunity to humiliate them as they should be humiliated. He needs to push back on their idiocy, not just platform them.

The City of Chicago sent police officers to guard a Tesla dealership when Musk is wealthy enough to hire security to protect his precious POS.

Making emergencies out of things that emerge from an imperfect Democracy is the entire Musk/Trump agenda. They won't admit it but it's straight out of the Nazi playbook. They are Fascists hiding behind the cover of what was once the Republican party.

Trump is doing by executive order what he is too weak to do by legislation. He does not have the votes in Congress. He wouldn't be able to get ANY of this passed if he tried. He is the WEAKEST incoming president in 50 years.

A civil suit may lead to an injunction at the very least, time to stop everything and sort out what's happening while the case proceeds (or not) through the courts.

I've lived through seven presidents who, for better or worse, followed the laws. Where they didn't, the people took them to task in court, and hashed it out to some measure of justice. I'm disgusted by the current admins ignoring of the US Constitution, the separation of powers, and the rule of law.

the USDOJ wants to know how to handle specific types of violence but the employees are not trained in that. What do they do? Invest in a program that strengthens ties between law enforcement agencies and marginalized communities. Now 🤷🏾‍♀️ /end

one of my most consistent takes, pre-election, was that a lot of people were going to find out just how much the federal government does that they take for granted - because it would stop happening here we go

The 14th Amendment of the US Constitution has ALWAYS been interpreted to extend citizenship to everyone born in the US and to those registered as "born abroad" whose parent/s are citizens of the US. ALWAYS. And ask yourself why that is and don't let anyone trick you into thinking it never was.

Trump wants to scare immigrants so they “self deport.” We need to help immigrants know their rights and get prepared. They’re required to answer FEDERAL officers questions about immigration status. But no other questions. Staying silent helps them fight deportation. Please share #Voices4Victory
