Joshua Tree National Park The desert keeps its quiet presence. Clouds drift across the sky’s long memory. Stone rests where time has settled. What endures speaks softly here. Its beauty unfolds in quiet forms. #photography #joshuatreenps #California #landscapephotography #desert

On this day in 1855 Eleanor Marx, a co-founder of our union, was born. She was at the forefront of the fight for the 8 hour working day and consistently fought for justice & equality. Today we celebrate all her achievements 👏

Quick question, is anyone else worried that we’re living under a Nazi government?

My local fancy cake bakery (you know, the birthday cake place) is selling homemade Pão de Queijo (Brazilian Cheese Bread) because one of the bakers is Brazilian. It's frozen with three different flavours to try. I made up the package and it's so fantastic!

Let go of choice. Wander where the trees whisper.

Stephen Colbert is Correct, Chump WHERE ARE THE EPSTEIN FILES ?

I don't understand US peeps going on about the Epstein files. You all know he's guilty already. He's got secret police kidnapping, attacking and killing people already. He's effectively resigned you from NATO and is threatening a war against the rest of us. It's not distraction.

Sorry America, But They Both Warned ALL OF US......

“The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.” –The Federalist Papers, Number 47

#EPSTEIN RELEASE THE DAMN UNREDACTED EPSTEIN FILES NOW VICTIMS NEED JUSTICE

I find it amazing that the President of the USA tells Iran not to employ military on the protesters in Iran. On the same day he threatens to employ the military on Protesters in the USA. Hypocrisy is not lost on me.

Today, it’s not your vote that determines whether the government brutalizes you or sends officers to your door. It’s your neighbors’ vote. If you’re ok with this happening to Minnesotans, don’t get comfortable. You won’t be exempt for long. In the end, a lawless administration comes for everyone.

American educator Ella Flagg Young was born #OTD in 1845. She served as Superintendent of Chicago Public Schools (1909-1915)--the first female head of a large US city school system. Elected, first woman president of the National Education Association (NEA) in 1910. #education @neatoday.bsky.social

Mitch "Turtle" McConnell Deserves Most Of The Blame......

Nothing is going to stop the people of Minnesota and America from defeating this criminal President, his administration, and all the traitors who enabled it. Not ICE terrorism. Not the insurrection act. Not martial law. Not a second civil war. Nothing. No matter what happens, they are going to lose.

Kristi Noem is a liar and a disgrace who must be removed from office. If you agree, tell your members of Congress to get on board with impeachment right now:

“Tomorrow the revolution will ‘rise up again, clashing its weapons,’ and to your horror it will proclaim with trumpets blazing: I was, I am, I shall be!” Rest in power, Rosa Luxemburg. (5 March 1871 - 15 January 1919)

Break time in between uncle's appointments and this view isn't horrible! #douglasfamilypreserve #santabarbara

Can we get some Wikileaks or Anonymous to release the full and unredacted Epstein files? Or better yet, anyone credible with a shred of decency?

No more distractions! Release ALL of the Trump-Epstein files! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Trump is insane and a pedophile, release the Trump-Epstein Files!

Oaths and laws and the Constitution mean nothing to the administration.

"Saul" and "Juan" work as irrigators in CAs Imperial Valley. Here they are removing the irrigation from the broccoli rapini fields, so that the machine can come in to harvest the crop. #WeFeedYou

I wrote a cozy mystery at age 50. Someone said to me-older people are better writers because they've seen some stuff. True?

People should be required to experience ICE's illegal brutalities before being able to claim that they support ICE and their methods.

I'm missing sunshine and blue skies, so here's a photo of Watchman Peak from my trip to Crater Lake last summer. There's a just barely visible historic fire lookout station at the summit, accessible via a moderate hike. #JanuArty #Sky #ColorADay #BlueTue #RockinTuesday #Photography #EastCoastKin

I see people talk about ICE by calling them the Gestapo, and while its not hard to see the comparison; they really aught to be compared to something homegrown. Because in truth, the closest thing we can compare ICE to is to federal slave catchers. The operation is the same.

1/13/1810 — b. Ernestine Rose, Polish-American feminist, reformer, freethinker, lecturer. Early suffrage leader; co-founder, Assn of All Classes of All Nations (1835). Called for “political, legal + social equality w/ man” at the first Natl #WomensRights Convention(1850) #womenshistory #PolSky #BOTD

Love it🥰

🚨EPSTEIN UPDATE 🤩 #EpsteinFiles

Myself and many others predicted pretty much all of this the first time Trump stole the presidency. Few listened, and many labelled us as delusional nutcases. Well, here we are.🤷

These Iranian protesters are so brave. BBC saying that thousands have been killed in this latest wave and that the real numbers are likely to be much higher, but it's very hard to know with their Internet blackout. It's hard to comprehend. #Iran #IranProtests

I'll save some time and just say that Trump's entire administration is corrupt and should be impeached
