I read this thinking of a call I had with a good friend just last week. Deported to Honduras last year, he was in tears after a video chat with his daughter, age 5 and son, age 3. He sobbed to me "I'm missing everything! I'm missing their whole lives" This is family violence on a massive scale

"portraying Iran as a threat is neither consistent with historical reality nor with present-day observable facts. Such a perception is the product of political and economic whims of the powerful.... In such an environment, if a threat does not exist, it is invented."

Sad news today. A former weekly hangout of mine announced its imminent closure. Hoover's Cooking was once the premier spot in Austin for strong margaritas & a unique blend of Southern, Soul and a little Tex-Mex. Pre covid, the fine folks there felt like family but business never truly recovered

I don't know what kind of creepy AI Neuralink crap is going on, but Kacey Musgraves is obviously data mining by brain. I'm calling my lawyers! youtu.be/NlohfwTunwU

They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long.

During Fiona Hill's testimony to Congress on Oct 14, 2019, she described how Trump and Putin discussed exchanging Ukraine for Venezuela. The quid pro quo was if Trump refuses to help Ukraine fight off a Russian invasion, Putin would not help Venezuela (a Russian ally) resist a US takeover.

I feel like I'm going to get a lot of use out of this Pluribus screencap

If ICE agents come onto my campus, or the campus of K-12 schools, I want the school to use active shooter protocols: lock them out, hide the kids and staff, and call the police to inform them of armed gunmen on campus.

Did anyone else see this today and wonder wtf happened? Oopsie, Stephen.

BUFFALO, NY: We are mobilizing to protest the arrest and detention of a group of UFW farm worker leaders we believe are being held at the Batavia ICE detention center.
