War is profitable — just not for the people fighting it. Members of Congress sit through secret briefings on Trump’s Iran war, then quietly buy defense stocks and cash in. You fund the war with blood. They fund their retirement with your tax dollars. #RepublicanCostOfCorruption

I think about this quote every single day and I think about how much potential we, as humans and as a country, have lost because of hate. Our Constitution and institutions would be so much stronger right now if they were also built with Natives, Black people, and women as equals.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

LOL, well, damn. Okay, Merriam-Webster.
Merriam-Webster's official account on Twitter tweeted this: "Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.? Because we gave them that L in 1776."

There are real people suffering real consequences under Donald Trump’s reign of terror and errors hurting the American people. Trump’s heartless cuts to healthcare and exploding cost of living have created a crisis for many families. For those that can, please help those in need. 🙏🏼❤️

Senate is trying to pass a bill that permanently creates a military partnership between the US & Israel. Funds Israel without review, buys their weapons, bypasses annual appropriations so we will be wedded to them. Bill is already in the Senate. Call your Senators now! youtube.com/shorts/hN5fd...
youtube.com
Urgent! The US military is about to tie itself inextricably to Israel’s. Make a call to stop it.

Dear BlueSky, Will you please quit returning me to the very first message whenever I click on a post to read it more completely? I am VERY tired of having to scroll past all I’ve already read to get back to the last post I read. I don’t see anyway to correct this on my end.

Life is actually pretty simple
Meme says
I don't want a city on mars
I don't want AI in every app
I don't want date centers in space
I want clean water
I want affordable healthcare
And I want bees to survive 

It shows snoopy fishing and dreaming of the day ;-)

ICYMI: The US is currently holding three times as many people in immigrant detention as were detained in the Nazi concentration camp system in spring 1939 — six years into the Third Reich, and just before the start of World War II.

Some jawdropping CBP crime statistics here...
Criminality is so rampant inside CBP that it has seen one of its own agents or officers arrested every 24 to 36 hours since 2005. CBP’s misconduct scandal is so long-running that today it would be old enough to drink.

In total, according to CBP’s own discipline reports, over the 20 years from 2005 to 2024 — the last year numbers are available — at least 4,913 CBP officers and Border Patrol agents have been arrested themselves, some multiple times. (In 2018 alone, a single CBP employee was arrested five times.) To put that number in perspective:

• The population of CBP agents and officers who have been arrested would make it roughly the nation’s fourth largest police department — equal to the size of the entire Philadelphia police.

• Indeed, for much of the 2010s and likely before and since, it appears the crime rate of CBP agents and offices was higher PER CAPITA than the crime rate of undocumented immigrants in the United States.

Remember the part in the old Peter Pan play where Peter tells the boys and girls in the audience that if they all just clap harder they can save Tinkerbell? That's what Trump's Cabinet Meeting reminded me of. A bunch of children wildly applauding him, all in an effort to bring him back to life.

During WWII a German vessel fired upon sailors floating in the sea after the Greek vessel Peleus was sunk. The officers were tried and convicted in the Peleus War Crimes trial.
A screenshot of a tweet by Ken Dilanian quoting concerns that an order to kill boat occupants who are no longer able to fight would constitute a war crime. Below is a collage of nine infrared or night-vision aerial images showing small boats in the water. At the bottom is a caption referencing “Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike.”

This only happens one way. Every person that loves our country that lives in Tennessee's 7th congressional district gets out, stands in line as long as it takes on Tuesday Dec. 2nd, and votes for Aftyn Behn. www.politicususa.com/p/democrats-...

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation. Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees. No refugee underfunded a school. No refugee closed a hospital. No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled. We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!
