That Trump / Mamdani press conference was so weird. Donald was so tame, like Zohran was taking a pig for a walk.

Sueños: The Nighttime Mind by Marisa Silva-Dunbar
Marisa Silva-Dunbar's work is always a pleasure to read and her collection "Sueños" is no different. I think this collection may be my favorite. Dreams are powerful and I loved the connections to real...

The Supreme Court’s decision in the LGBTQ books case lays bare the extent to which the justices exist in a bubble. They don’t interact with anyone other than wealthy conservative Christian lawyers. The law exists to protect people like them, and no one else. ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/mahmo...
The result in Taylor, as Sotomayor puts it, "strikes at the core premise of public schools" — that children of all faiths and backgrounds come together to learn about a "range of concepts and views that reflect our entire society." It is the product of a conservative supermajority whose members think of the Constitution as a compact that applies not to all Americans, but to people who look like them: wealthy, conservative Christian lawyers who do not interact with anyone other than wealthy, conservative Christian lawyers, outside of occasionally tipping a caddy at the Congressional. For them, the First Amendment does not guarantee freedom of religion. It protects their power to privilege their religion over the religions of everyone else.

Remember when US troops tortured Iraqi prisoners? They ultimately paid because that’s abuse of power & a disgusting display against humanity. We now have this vile mindset running our government but imho their time in power is limited. All evil players will pay. Let your conscience be your guide.

Read what Hossam, a 24-year-old Palestinian journalist, wrote just hours before he was killed today. There are no words to describe the inhumanity of the times you and I are sharing.
Passage from Hossam Shabat:

When I arrived on the scene, I wasn’t ready for the horror before my eyes. The streets were filled with the dead. Under every stone lay a martyr. Dozens were crying for help from underneath the rubble of their homes but there was no one to respond. Screams filled the air while everyone stood helpless. My tears didn’t stop. The scenes were more than any human being could bear. The ambulances were filled with corpses, their bodies and limbs piled on top and intertwined with one another. We could no longer distinguish between children and men, between the injured and the dead.

At Al-Andalus hospital the scene was even more painful. The hospital was filled with martyrs. Mothers bid silent farewells to their children. Medical staff worked in horrific conditions, trying to treat the injured with only the most basic means available. It was an impossible situation with massive numbers of dead and wounded being brought in at a terrifying rate.

Israel’s aggression continues. Massacre after massacre, leaving only the screams of mothers in its wake and the dreams of children that have turned to ash. There is no justification for this. Everything is being crushed: the lives of innocent people, their dignity, and their hopes for a better future.

If Chuck Schumer votes for cloture tomorrow, it’s proof that he’s weak and is a clear sign that we need new Democratic leadership. Polling shows that only 22% of independents would blame Democrats for a shutdown, while 56% would blame the GOP or Trump. Americans want Democrats to FIGHT, not CAVE!!!
