Millions of Americans remain at jobs they hate for one reason: the health insurance they receive. That’s absurd. Universal health care will give Americans the freedom to choose the work they want without worrying about health care coverage. Another reason for Medicare for All.

Missouri “Representative” Ann Wagner posted this and quickly deleted it. Luckily my friend found it for her! We won’t forget. Ann wants to pick her voters.

Helpless? Prayers? That’s what pastors and civilians should be doing. We pay members of Congress to ask hard questions, start investigating,and find out if the government could have done more. Do it now before the next storm. We aren’t paying you to pray. We are paying you to help all of us.

🇺🇸 On this June 14, we honor the man, the myth, the legend: President Barack Obama. A visionary leader whose words and actions inspired hope, unity, and progress for millions. His legacy reminds us that change is possible when we believe in the power of togetherness and courage.

Truth-tellers, not rioters. Protect these two men at all costs. “You feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history.” “John Lewis said make good trouble… that means make trouble on behalf of democracy.”

Several companies are moving their business away from the law firms that caved & capitulated to Donald Trump, saying if those law firms can't fight for themselves, how can they be expected to fight for their clients. One corporate executive said, "we like law firms that don't run from a fight."

Today at 4:44 am, 🇺🇦 SBU detonated 1,100 kg of explosives under Crimean bridge's supports. The structure is now critically damaged. It’s 3rd successful strike. No civilian casualties. Preparation took months. Chief Maliuk: Crimea is Ukraine. No illegal Russian object is safe. We finish what we start

My Saturday PSA: Joe Biden isn’t the president anymore. Instead, we’ve got a mentally deranged and ethically compromised old man with the nuclear codes trespassing in the Oval Office. Stop talking about Joe Biden. Start talking about the Convicted Felon, Donald Trump.

I’m still baffled at how America took one of the basic principles of the presidency — the occupant shouldn’t be able to benefit financially from the office — and just said, nah, that just doesn’t count for this one guy.

THIS IS TERRIFYING‼️ Dr. Peter Marks, former head of vaccines at the FDA, just had his last day—forced to resign or be fired because he wouldn’t lie about vaccines. He gives a chilling warning: the U.S. is unprepared for biowarfare—because the response team has been gutted.

U.K. tourist Becky Burke finally returned home to Wales on Tuesday after spending 19 days in a U.S. ICE detention facility. Her parents relayed their daughter’s description of her release from ICE, saying how she was taken in “leg chains, waist chains and handcuffs,” which left her “traumatized.”

I want you to understand this is happening in our name and we know most of these men committed no crimes. One is a professional soccer player who was tortured in Venezuela and was working through asylum in the U.S. ICE shipped him for his Real Madrid tattoo and a picture throwing rock & roll horns.

A young lady originally from Whitehorse is being detained in a detention center in Arizona. She was detained March 3rd, after her visa was denied. Facebook post from her Mom is in the pics below. It's a disturbing sequence of events. Do not travel to the US.
My daughter, Jasmine, a 35-year-old Canadian, attempted to enter the U.S. on March 3, 2025, with a consulting visa for a company in the States. Unfortunately, her visa was denied, and she was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at the San Ysidro border crossing, where she was held for three nights.

From there, she was transferred to Otay Mesa Detention Centre in San Diego and held for another three nights. On Sunday, March 9, the online tracking system indicated that she had been released. We assumed this meant she was being deported and escorted to an airport. However, 24 hours later, there was no sign of her, no communication, and we were extremely worried.

We eventually learned that about 30 people, including Jasmine, were forcibly removed from their cells at 3:00 am and transferred to the San Luis Detention Center in Arizona. They are housed together in a single concrete cell with no natural light, fluorescent lights that are never turned off, no mats, no blankets, and limited bathroom facilities.Communication with her has been extremely sporadic, and it is only thanks to one of her close friends with contacts in the U.S. that we have been able to receive updates.

Yesterday, Austin Grabish, a reporter from ABC 10News was able to interview Jasmine. He also interviewed her friend who has been working tirelessly from Vancouver to bring Jasmine home. The story will air tomorrow, and from there, we hope other broadcasters will pick it up.

What we have learned of the ICE system and its treatment of detainees is inhumane and deeply concerning. Being detained is one thing, but there’s NO excuse for the way people are treated while in custody or for the delays in deportation. They are not criminals, and they just want to go home.
We are doing everything we can to bring Jasmine home. We are in touch with the Canadian Consulate in San Diego, but there is little they can do. A lawyer is also working on her release, but progress is slow.

I am humbly asking for your support by sharing this story widely through your networks. Jasmine is an adventurous and hard-working young woman and we desperately want her home. Thank you!


Picture of Jasmin is below text.
