JUST IN: North Carolina's Dem lawmaker Carla Cunningham gave the GOP the decisive vote to pass a law forcing police to comply with ICE. She said "all cultures are not equal."

She just lost reelection BIG in the Dem primary to a progressive pastor & activist, Rodney Sadler. 70% to 22%!

DHS has spent over a BILLION dollars alone purchasing nearly a dozen warehouses to convert into mass detention camps for our immigrant neighbors.

But there’s no money to pay for Medicare or childcare, right?

Not what the fossil fuel oligarchs had in mind, exactly. But very, very nice.

As a former StoryCorps facilitator, this is fucking disgusting.

End the project already, Dave.

You created a good model: you encouraged people to sit and do oral history for 20 yrs.
