1) 5 yrs ago today our son was taken from us violently. A man near Seth in Berkeley was enraged by the racism on display and the crappy Covid response. I know because he told me in court as he tried to as for forgiveness. He had seen George Floyd killed on camera 2 1/2 weeks earlier. He got a gun….

Stevens: There’s $1.3 trillion of credit card debt. There are people putting grocery bills on credit cards and then paying interest on them. We are in an affordability crisis. Coffee is up 20%, beef is up 16%, bacon is up over 10%. And now we’re going to see health care costs skyrocket.

It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.

I don't want to a petty little bitch, but also worth noting.

1. The "deal" is the exact deal Biden proposed 10 months ago.
2. Trump told Bibi to kill the deal so it wouldn't help Harris and help Bibi stay out of jail.
3. Keep selling weapons to Israel.

“People simply disappeared, always during the night. Your name was removed from the registers, every record of everything you had ever done was wiped out, and your one-time existence was denied and then forgotten. You were abolished, annihilated: vaporized was the usual word.“

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site

As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.
