“When food prices go up because farm workers go missing, that’s the ICE Tax. When construction grinds to a halt because no one is left to build homes, that’s the ICE Tax. When our elders can’t get the care they deserve because their caretakers and nurses are gone, that’s the ICE Tax.” #EndtheICETax

l've been a SA advocate for decades:
NEVER go to campus resources for a SA. Call a rape care hotline/program (off campus), get a SA advocate (they're free), go to a SART hospital for care (and evidence collection if you choose).
They activate the police. Schools have NO business in this process and will minimize and bury it. It's a criminal matter, not an administrative matter.
Period. No exceptions.

PSA
Imagine 200 Americans. In this crowd,
24 live in poverty.
18 have no health insurance.
42 are illiterate.
45 have untreated mental illnesses.
35 have an
untreated addiction.
134 live paycheck to paycheck.
23 have experienced homelessness.
59 are victims of domestic violence.
20 have experienced discrimination for their age, race, gender, or religion.
1 is transexual.
Some people would have you believe that this 1 person is the greatest threat and the biggest concern for everyone else in the crowd. How does that make sense?

If we are talking about Peter Thiel—the nuttier version of Roy Cohn, only out—don't speculate about the young model Thiel was cheating on his husband with, who made a rather Russian departure from life, off a high-rise balcony, after crashing Mr. & Mr. Thiel's party and causing a row between them.

There was no “retreat.” Christian nationalists have spent decades trying to take over Hollywood, media, universities and public education. They didn’t voluntarily surrender that ground. Their attempts to impose a “biblical” worldview have been rejected.

I’m seeing people say this means Wells didn’t drown. In about 15% of drownings, there’s no water in the lungs. I’ve reported on people wrongly accused of murder because an elected coroner didn’t understand this. Don’t have an opinion on what happened here. But this itself does not mean homicide.

When I see a new garbage political attack ad, I now try to focus on what entity paid for it. I saw one making things up about Sherrod Brown yesterday that came from “Buckeyes PAC,” which I hadn’t seen before. As it turns out, that’s by design. (Thread)

The GOP operative class is younger, better educated, and more urban than the national average which means their intuitions pull the party to the center.
The Dem operative class is also younger, better educated, and more urban but that means their biases pull Dems off-center.
