When you see people of color joining ICE or even the military ( if y’all really wanna go there), it’s because the U.S. education system is working as intended. The media machine is working as intended. Everyone is susceptible to ws propaganda.

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵) www.consumerreports.org/lead/protein...

I got "6/7"d by a kid yesterday and was honestly surprised most by the kid's need to assert their coolness over adults 😂

ICE is in Jamaica Queens now

You are so correct and so funny about it. But they'll never listen!

BREAKING: Look at this. A new crypto account was opened yesterday morning. 30 minutes BEFORE Trump's announcement of 100% tariffs on China, it added a huge multi-million dollar levered Bitcoin short position, per YF. Market dumped. The trader made a profit of $192 million in two hours. Unusual.

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

Excellent read. "Figure out today what your core values are and don’t trade them away."

Frederick Douglass' slave narrative had a preface written by a white man who attested to the truthfulness of its contents, and shit is still the same today

So exhausting..

Message to self “I am focused on what’s in my control. What is outside of my control will fall into place exactly how it needs to. I trust and believe that I am right where I need to be."

The Atlantic showing their ass writing on DC. So take note, these white DC based journalists at legacy national outlets live here aghast at the population of Black working class people around them, ignoring or policing us, & wish we didn’t exist. Get better sources on DC, national folks.

anyway fuck transphobes

Every day is a new horror story with this administration but each one is horrible in its own way. In this case, the push to deny birthright citizenship to children of immigrants. 157 years of (generally) welcoming policy at risk. Just to keep non-white people out. Nativist horror.

Back on Twitter, I witnessed a lot of leftists call “The Message” milquetoast in its critiques when it first came out. Saying that it was pointing out “obvious” things that “everybody knew.” And yet we are JUST now getting to a place in which mainstream media is acknowledging genocide as genocide.

Actually, I don't want to spend energy on this kind of stupidity.

I’m not requesting off. I’m taking off.

“We are born to dream and make the things we dream about.” - Nicola Yoon

Absolutely correct and I include the military in this. The institution that those who still refuse to say that we have full fascist executive control at the Federal level keep saying we have to 'wait to see' about. We've seen that the military obeys unlawful orders too. We're living under fascism.

If someone wants to say that dozens of sitting members of Congress and the senate need to be replaced this is the time to do it. There’s no reason to hold onto unpopular people.

Reject NYT framing of rejecting communion with people with whom you have fundamental moral differences like it's the same as deciding not to give an accolade at an awards show.

ICE agent, quit your job

Pattern recognition is a bitch, so if you're abused long enough you become conditioned into expecting it everywhere. But like all neurological loops, under the right care in the right circumstances it can be made to change for the better. Time 🤝 Good People Healing Ask me how I know.

I say that to say this: There is absolutely no excuse to justify this dehumanization. You must stand up and say “that is horrible and that is absurd.” There is no race or ethnicity whose existence on a direct and on an abstract level is purposed as “process of being destroyed” THESE ARE PEOPLE.

The federal government is the enemy of the people. Act like it. Protect yourself and your community in the best way you can. We’re on our own.

A man rewriting the Constitution is NOT going to cede power in 2028.

Tired of stuff like this. If we're on 2016, why didn't Obama pursue the evidence showing Russia was meddling in the 2016 election? Why did Obama's FBI obscure Trump's ties to Russia and amplify Clinton's emails a month before the election?

I enjoy the hater discourse, but I have to say: hating evildoers isn't being a hater. It's being a lover... of justice

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t

I predicted this exact situation when I taught the 13th amendment last year. I specifically didn’t teach it this spring bc I was so depressed at being right.

There is a maximum amount of time each day you're supposed to focus on the world's problems instead of your own, after which you have a legitimate need for therapy on your thought processes being self-destructive. At some point you have to stop scrubbing your hands you are bleeding into the sink.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

While Trump is deploying the military against American citizens we may want to check in on what he is trying to distract us from… I completely missed this news yesterday and this is pretty f’ing devastating! Sick, broke, under educated and desperate is how autocrats like their people! Stay Woke.
