So glad to have found this book. I thought Id lost it in my move a few years ago. In my entire collection of Neruda books, this one is a favorite. 🤩 It literally appeared tonight in the same place I feel I've looked many times. Blessed be!

Emmanuel Garcia, the 15 year old autistic boy who went missing & landed in ICE custody, is still not home with his mother

He disappeared last week & Houston PD handed him over to ICE

A disabled child was given to ICE instead of attempting to contact his family

Eugenics & bigotry go hand in hand

🔥 ZOHRAN ON FOX: "I want to speak directly to the president. I will not be a mayor like Adams who will call you to stay out of jail… a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election… I’ll be a mayor ready to speak at any time to lower the cost of living.“

Go David Douglas! They were always great sportsmanship when my son was in high school sports a few years back.

Agent lobs a gas canister into a residential neighborhood in Illinois for no discernible reason, gassing dozens of neighbors including a baby. The comfort with which they deploy weapons of war is unreal.

1/3 Admittedly, I work in public education, so we don't get the same level of training (thankfully) that cops or hospital staff do, but U know enough to know they are doing things we learn absolutely never to do under any circumstances, for risk of killing someone.

1/2 involved in dangerous physical maneuvers that are opposite anything I've learned about physical intervention for emergency purposes in my job. I see the videos and its abundantly clear these are just random people who signed up to do this, which is even more terrifying and gross.

None of the restraint or physical tactics they are using could ever be "safe" at this point (incredible level of cruelty aside) because they lack the training and experience to be using physical intervention at any capacity.All of the videos show these masked people stumbling around, 1/1

Members of the Unpresidented Brass Band were bull rushed & brutalized in the middle of playing "Ghostbusters." One was sent to the hospital and another tackled, arrested, and taken across state lines where she is still being detained.
