Time to get outside & reconnect with nature & community.

The Conversation U.S. @us.theconversation.com · Mar 11

Americans are spending nearly 1.5 hours less outside their homes in 2023 than in 2003. New research shows the pandemic accelerated a long-term trend of staying in. Does this sound familiar? buff.ly/jcHycII

Six months after ICE apprehended 47 people, including nine kids, in Hays County, Tex., County Judge Ruben Becerra says DHS has ignored his attempts to get answers:

“We’re not told why they took them, and we’re not told where they took them. By definition, that’s a kidnapping.”

Did it all start with a 12 year olds “genius” idea that taxes are bad?

Really tho, who wants to nationalize elections? 🤔

We create our own filter bubbles and it’s not good for civil society.

Do I like to read opinions or even analysis or research that I disagree with or that make me uncomfortable? No. But I’m not out here blocking.

I sure miss the local newspaper that EVERYONE read.

Good. Keep hammering the oligarchs and their Gatsby party. New polling out today shows 72% say the economy is in bad shape, and 61% blame Trump.

New Jerseyans deserve a governor who will fight for them no matter what.

@mikiesherrill.bsky.social will be that governor.

A quote from her reads: "I’m committed to fighting anyone when it comes to fighting for the people of New Jersey. As I stand here, I feel nothing but courage. New Jerseyans give me courage."

Remember, they're currently arguing that Biden's pardons are illegitimate because he signed the actual forms with an autopen.

Trump, meanwhile, repeatedly insists he knows nothing at all about one of his very controversial pardons. Never heard of the guy!

Sorta seems like a problem.

O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao?

TRUMP: Are you ready? I don't know who he is

O'DONNELL: His crypto exchange Binance helped facilitate a $2b purchase of World Liberty Financial's stablecoin. And they you pardoned him.

TRUMP: Here's the thing -- I know nothing about it

For the love of God, can just one interviewer push back on this insanity?

There are people seeking political asylum in America. They were not taken out of mental asylums in other countries and brought here.

It's a big mistake with big ramifications, but no one wants to correct Our Special Boy.

O'DONNELL: Are we going to war against Venezuela?

TRUMP: I doubt it. They emptied their mental institutions and insane asylums into the United States of America

📽️ WATCH: The U.S. government doesn’t track how often immigration agents detain citizens. So ProPublica did.

We found more than 170 incidents since the start of Trump’s second term. Americans have been kicked, dragged and held for days without access to lawyers.
