Anyone who has participated in or attended a naturalization ceremony knows how meaningful and joyous these ceremonies tend to be. The cruelty of this is heartbreaking and enraging.

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

This is an act of genocide, ffs. Genocide is not an event but a process, and disappering people and stealing away children are parts of that process.
The ICE secret police have kidnapped and disappeared this child. It's unconscionable what these sadistic racists are doing to children and their families.
A 6-year-old boy is missing after ICE arrested him and his dad in NYC last week and shipped them off to separate facilities. www.thecity.nyc/2025/12/02/i... @thecity.nyc @gwynnefitz.bsky.social

Somali immigrants are the virtual backbone of great swaths of the meat packing industry in the Midwest and Great Plains states. If you eat beef or pork, you are personally reliant upon them to feed yourself and your family.

Statehood for D.C. is an ethical obligation at this point, required to protect the rights of our residents to govern ourselves against such out-of-state troops being sent to patrol our city.
NEW: Republican-led states, in a new filing at the D.C. Circuit, say D.C. residents are irrelevant, D.C. belongs to everyone else. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
The filing is led by the South Carolina and West Virginia attorneys general. Both states sent troops to DC.

One of the store locations I work at is losing its lease and is shutting down. We have huge—and I mean HUGE—signs that say "store closing" inside, & long banners on 2 sides of the outside of our building saying the same. And yet! I get 10-15 people per hour asking me "are you guys closing down?" 🤷♀️

Just imagining how much better it would be if ALL news stories about vaccine-preventable illnesses were illustrated with pictures of people with the disease, not pictures of needle injections. If you must show something that people will find scary & unpleasant, make it the disease, not the cure.
