25 years have passed since Helen Hill and Bastard Nation launched the 3rd wave of the adoptee rights movement with our successful Oregon Ballot Measure 58…We’ve wondered how many certs Oregon has released since then. Here’s the latest report straight from the state: bit.ly/4qF4f43

How disgusting is this! This baby has a family it has lived with, a SS card, a birth certificate, a known birthday;, etc. And stuck in a box like a piece of trash. Somebody wants to know "where's the baby?" www.msn.com/en-us/news/u...

Now what… we won’t have Drs. and Nurses??? Minnesota 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

CBS has received updated info from 2 US govt anonymous sources of ICE agent Jonathan Ross being treated at the hospital after he was allegedly touched by a car.

the #adoption industry’s strategy is to preserve the conditions that sustain its business model by trying, with great success, to convince the public that adopted people and their bio parents are locked in an interminable struggle over whose needs are paramount. It’s almost entirely a fiction.

You're willing to drag the world into deadly turmoil when your only reason for being in power it to avoid jail.

I feel like a broken record, but tell your normiest, offline-ist friends: it’s appallingly direct racism. They’re hoovering up non white people as fast as possible. They don’t give the slightest shit re “status.” apnews.com/article/ice-...

Quite the split screen in NYC today

CBP agent demands ID from a woman on the street in Minneapolis and says, “We’re doing an immigration check. We’re doing a citizen check.” She refuses to comply and says she is a US citizen. The agent then threatens her with “federal charges.” She responds, “I belong here.” AND THEN CBP LEAVES:

DHS terrorizing people this morning means they 100% plan on pushing through it. It’s an all or nothing fight, this is them pressing the issue on whether or not they can walk into a city and brutalize Americans (libs and minorities) as they please.

“Has the officer been suspended?” “He’s spending time with his family.” So: paid vacation, while they cover it up.

Today ICE murdered a woman in cold blood in Minneapolis. In a democracy, this insane act of violence would get a full investigation. Firings. Jail. In fascism, innocent victims are merely labeled "enemies of the state." No investigations needed. Thus, state-sanctioned violence against the people.

Dems were in power 12 of the past 25 years with the chance to at least *attempt* to reduce the power of the police state and instead gleefully and massively expanded it at every single opportunity. They didn't even pretend to oppose any of this shit on principle, only the aesthetics.
