This has been the GOP's "starve-the-beast" scheme for nearly 50 years. Meanwhile, millions suffer and struggle to get ahead as the rich get richer. See the problem here?

Nonverbal 5-year-old who met Ms. Rachel over Zoom is released from ICE detention His parents, asylum-seekers from Colombia, said their son’s physical and emotional health deteriorated during the weeks they were held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center in South Texas.

the amount of good ms. rachel puts out into the world is immeasurable. she is so much closer to something divine than many men who claim to be holy.

The British state getting into bed with Palantir is just incredibly blackpilling, especially since it is being done by a Labour government who are composed of the exact sort of people that Palantir's owners and operators openly say they wish to drive from power forever! Inept self-loathing fools.

Damn. Credit to this poster, who has paid attention to all of the pieces. And indeed, as we were prepping the pilot, Mueller's FBI was going all in on counter-terror and Squad 5 (Narcotics) of the Baltimore field office was dumping casework. We had to report, write and film that in real time.

just a thought: no movement should ever depend so completely on the reputation of its chosen figurehead that one of its founders is forced to make a calculation like this on behalf of its survival

I think this story is helping me understand why the generation Dolores Huerta inspired was so strongly tied to the idea that activism should be intersectional before anything else. It's not a buzzword, it's about keeping abusers out of your movement
