Cruelty cannot be our compass. We need both compassion and conviction.

#DefundICE
Color me shocked that a Planned Parenthood executive is performatively supportive of marginalized people. The unborn are marginalized, too.
"We must enact policies that reconcile the legitimate interest of Americans in secure borders with a core commitment to human dignity." The Solidarity Party's platform flies in the face of ICE's draconian, inhumane actions under Trump. I call on Americans of good will to act.
We don’t need anyone to tell us how these two photos are different. We need more speaking out against what’s shown in the photo on the left. The one on the right depicts the end of years of escalating dehumanization. Had more spoken up, maybe it wouldn’t have ended so tragically.
“The children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality.” — James Baldwin
We will not normalize this. We will fight this, and we will end this.
To my fellow white people and to all people on this Martin Luther King Day: don’t be a moderate. Be a radical.
Fight for justice for the unborn, the oppressed, the immigrant, the poor. Radically promote justice every day, not just with words but with direct action.
The history of Christianity is also full of Christians who opposed all those things, most especially when done in the name of Christ.
“Can I go check a pulse?” a bystander said after Good was shot, his hands in the air.
“No! Back up!” an ICE agent told him.
“I’m a physician!”
“I don’t care!” the agent replied, before another came up and said they had their own EMS on the way.

It sure would be nice to see more pro-life, pro-family conservative Christians speaking out against this. This isn’t just bad apples spoiling the bunch. This is the fish rotting from the head.
If you aren’t at the table, then you’re on the menu.

The best memorial to Renee Nicole Good would be for ICE to stop terrorizing communities. In the meantime, we must continue to protest against the Trump administration's use of police state tactics against our undocumented neighbors.
In 2012, Wyoming overwhelmingly passed Amendment A to prevent Obamacare. Just last week, the Wyoming Supreme Court interpreted Amendment A as a right to abortion. We decry models of healthcare that place individualism over human lives, and call for healthcare as a collective good.
On the latest Unorthodoxing, Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising’s Elise Ketch tells of her horrific 24 hours at a Memphis jail, where torturous conditions risk forced miscarriages for pregnant women.
She also shares her journey from young Republican to pro-life leftist.

Don’t ever let anyone tell you this wasn’t an orchestrated insurrection. The man who instigated #January6th sits in the Oval Office today. He deserves justice for his crimes.

In 1958, long before winning the presidency, Caldera signed the Puntofijo Pact, along with the heads of two other parties. The Pact ensured democracy would return to Venezuela after decades of dictatorial rule. We echo his vision of a democratic and sovereign Venezuela.
"The formula for achieving cordial relations cannot be the merciless attempts at forever lowering the prices of our goods while increasing the price of commodities we have to import."
–Rafael Caldera, Christian democrat and President of Venezuela in an address to the US Congress
Economists call this “velocity of money,” and it’s why getting money in the hands of working people stimulates the economy.
We need higher wages and lower prices.
We need economic democracy in the form of strong unions and worker-owned cooperative enterprises.
We need an ownership economy.
From all your friends in the Liberation Caucus, we wish you a very Merry Christmas!
Today, remember the vulnerable and less fortunate, and work in the coming year to protect and provide for them.
My dad is coming to get me, and I’m perfectly comfortable here. But I’m disappointed. I started the morning with high hopes.
None of these chargers are working. Unsure why. They say they’re charging, then say just “plugged in/finished charging.”
I could have caught the Metra and been late getting there on the bus, but I missed the last train that could have gotten me to church even close to on time.
Okay, I thought I had this, but I didn’t. For some reason, these J1772 Level 2 chargers at Governors State University are not working.
I left it plugged in and had thought it was charging. Left to get coffee and find a bathroom more than an hour ago.
Privately, I’ve said a departed public figure made the world better by leaving it.
My better angels say I’m wrong to have said that even privately.
Follow Rob Reiner’s example when he spoke of Charlie Kirk, not Donald Trump’s example when he spoke of Reiner.

IVF is the most capitalist thing to do in a commercialized and capitalist-thinking society for commercialized people who want capitalist things. Let's get to the root cause of infertility instead of resorting to just bandages.
Don’t let the capitalist class fool you! They play both sides of the culture war against the middle.
Be a conscientious objector to the culture wars. Come together with people of good will to oppose death, injustice and polarization.
Join us: www.liberationasp.org
The big businesses don't care whether they're on team blue or team red of the culture war. They bankroll both sides! They just want *you* to care so you're too busy hating your neighbor to fight against their control. We offer another way: one opposing death, injustice, and polarization.
