Don’t forget that Mexicans are first people whose presence on this land long predated the current USA borders.

Why do the proud boys cover their faces?  Perhaps they’re not so sure of their convictions.? and what’s with the tan pants? Are they sponsored? Do they have a stylist or just bad taste.

“Eat the rich” is an ideologically reprehensible statement. Proportionally, there just aren’t that many of them. They’re not a viable long-term solution to food insecurity.

My therapist told me: “Write letters to the people you hate and then burn them.” Did that, but now I don’t know what to do with the letters.

He’s back!!! We just captured male Bobolink LGB (light blue, green, blue) for the third year in a row here in Oswego. That means he’s been down to Paraguay and back at least three times- flying roughly 30,000 total miles! Simply an incredible feat for a bird that weighs as much as six nickels. 🤯

At the time of its release, in April '88, Tracy Chapman's debut sounded like nothing else on rock radio. You'd hear Led Zeppelin, Tom Petty, Eagles. And then, Fast Cars. It was a breath a fresh air and reminded me of Joan Armatrading's work. The whole LP has aged well and remains relevant, powerful.

H.R. 1897 is moving fast in the House and could hit the floor for a full vote as soon as tomorrow. This bill would gut the Endangered Species Act forcing economic impact considerations into listing decisions, limiting your ability to challenge bad science in court,

Trump promising his staff mass pardons before he leaves office means he is planning for them to commit a lot of crimes and he wants to enable them all. This is not a government. This is a mob.

If your president is brazenly announcing he plans to commit war crimes, you literally have to impeach him. Is this not obvious?

After the 2024 election, support for trans rights was widely viewed as a political liability for Democrats. But across the country, Democrats who are standing firm against anti-trans legislation haven’t seen the backlash many expected — and may even be strengthening their standing with voters.

Democrats Who Refuse To 'Moderate' On Trans Rights Are Showing The Way
Many say Democrats need to shift to the right on trans issues. But the evidence shows otherwise.
