A friend of mine has an extraordinary knack for finding the driest place to hike. Tuesday was a rainy day in western Washington, but we managed to find some sun breaks. #pnw

The US military, acting in our name, killed nearly 200 children in a war of choice against a nation who had neither attacked us nor was planning to. At a certain point, the world will cease to draw a distinction between Trump and ordinary Americans, just like they once did between Germans and Nazis.

The death toll from the Iran school tragedy has hit 148, mostly children aged 7–12, with 95 others wounded. A staggering, unforgivable loss that defines our current moral decay.

Well this is gross. I don’t know how new it is. If you go to the White House website, you get a pop-up asking you to sign up and provide your email and phone number. “You agree to receive promotional and marketing messages …from the White House.” Wanna bet this info is funneled straight to the RNC?

Once you put in your email you get another Pop Up: “just one more step. Receive local alerts from the White House!” With a form for your phone number and your ZIP Code. Then it says “the White House – by providing your phone number, you agree to receive promotional and marketing messages from the White House. Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies. Text Help for help. Text stop to cancel.”

In 1993, Trump signed a mortgage for a Florida home, pledging it would be his principal residence. Seven weeks later, he attested a neighboring property would also be his principal residence. In reality, he does not seem to have lived in either home.

Texas has a population of 33 million. 40% of the state is Hispanic. The state borders Mexico, so why isn't ICE operating in Texas? Because it's not about immigration. It's a political maneuver to emotionally abuse and psychologically traumatize people into submission in Democratic-controlled states

#ResistanceRoots Most of us are familiar with the term “filibuster” to describe hijacking legislative debate in the U.S. Senate. In military history, however, a filibuster was someone engaged in an illegal military expedition into a foreign country to foment revolution or seize territory. /1

It wasn’t Teen Vogue that fired the political journalists, let’s be clear on this. It was Condé Nast, the parent company, who did the deed. rooseveltinstitute.org/press-releas...

The decision by Condé Nast today to collapse this publication into Vogue and eliminate the politics reporting staff at Teen Vogue is evidence that corporate concentration eliminates innovative ideas and silences voices with less power.
