All i want to know OSS how much they paid Trump And don’t tell me he cares about drugs coming into this country and about deporting criminals. Here’s a real criminal & he’s getting pardoned. How much $
BREAKING
Donald Trump has just pardoned one of the world’s most notorious drug traffickers. Trump, in a new post, said he will issue a “full and complete pardon” to former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, who was convicted of drug trafficking in the US and sentenced to 45 years in prison

Shout out of deep gratitude to Native Americans who were indigenous to this land & who were misplaced & mistreated.

Thank you for caring for this land. You should have all the bounty of gratitude.

My deep hope is that in response to the depravity, cruelty & ignorance of this government, we will become more kind, accepting and compassionate.

We are better than this.

Today I’m grateful to all of you who post & respond here with generosity & thoughtfulness. Thank you. 💙

Maybe DJT should educate himself on why people migrate: War, famine, violence in their country. We should be helping them, not closing all the doors.

Wake up - we have a global migration problem. We should be gathering with other leaders around the world to find solutions. Stop blaming the victims

Thank you @ivodaalder.bsky.social for your astute analysis of the absolute mess - which started that Jared Kushner & Witcoff (neither have diplomatic experience) talked to the Russians first. Can you even imagine?!
It takes a special talent to come up with a Russian plan to end the war in Ukraine and present it as your own. But then that has been Steve Witkoff’s modus operandi from the start: take Russia’s side and force Ukraine to accept it. My latest @theobserveruk.bsky.social. observer.co.uk/news/interna...

All are encouraged to deadname the Department of Defense.
I will never ever call it the department of war. Never.

The damage that this admin has caused CHILDREN is unforgivable. & they have no remorse.

In addition to ICE in our country (👇) with the removal of USAID, the estimate is that 400,000 needy children have died. The USA could have saved them. Again, no remorse.

Crimes against humanity.
1/ THREAD: This year ICE has sent a record 600 immigrant kids into federal shelters, more than in the previous four years combined. Data suggests some are being separated from their families.

For one 15-year-old, it began with a cracked windshield 👇

DOGE is not really gone, it’s just been made standard operating procedure now. Please stop celebrating DOGE ‘ending’ as a ‘win.’ It’s not. Their cuts have already killed 600,000 people. Elon stole all your data. Don’t fall for the clickbait.

Worth reiterating that the Coast Guard is part of DHS, not the military.

So if this is "acceptable" Coast Guard policy, it's also probably an acceptable policy at ICE, CBP, Secret Service, and other agencies under DHS if it's not already.

Today the President of the United States called for the killing of his political opponents. People need to understand how serious that is.

This is not normal. This cannot be something only Democrats condemn. Every leader and American must condemn this.

I went to a zoom training tonight for doing school patrols to protect parents & kids from ICE who are showing up at local schools.

I cannot believe we live in a country where we as citizens have to patrol elementary schools.

I cried. And was equally inspired by my neighbors.

How awful. This is outright health disinformation, lying to the American people. Not only is there massive evidence showing no link between vaccines & autism, there’s not even a plausible mechanism based on what we’ve learned about the genetics of autism, some environmental exposures in pregnancy
HEADS UP: CDC website now officially asserts that vaccines may cause autism.“Studies supporting a link have been ignored by health authorities.” Also says the “vaccines do not cause autism” header remains b/c of an agreement with Cassidy.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been hated by the left for years and never feared for her life. She’s been hated by the right for two days and had to hire security.

The way a society treats its most vulnerable tells you everything. We are failing.

I agree with Pastor Woolf: this is a “spiritual emergency”. The brutalization of protestors & dehumanizing treatment of migrants must stop. Every religious leader needs to stand up.

1,000 victims of sexual exploitation. Can you even imagine the pain these girls, now women, endured?

All because they were taken advantage of by self-centered, wealthy men who cared more about satisfying their own sick“desires” than the life of the girl in front of them. It’s time 4 accountability
NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

We canceled our #Spotify subscription. They are running ads for ICE & also pay artists badly. #boycottspotify
Spotify is facing criticism for displaying recruitment advertisements for ICE on its platform.

I stand with @revdrmichaelwoolf.bsky.social

An example of someone living his values. And getting assaulted for standing up for what’s right.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov what is going on in the city of my birth?
Incredible shot of an incredible Baptist pastor, @revdrmichaelwoolf.bsky.social. I reported last week about him getting shot with pepper ball by Illinois State Police outside ICE facility: publicwitness.wordandway.org/p/baptist-pa...
Today they violently arrested him during vigil. What a photo.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov WTH is going on? Dragging faith leaders? Please explain why Illinois police are doing this.
at one point, i watched a cook county sheriff’s officer (who appears to be in charge) point out a priest in the crowd.

he and a couple officers then went into the crowd , dragged him into the street, and arrested him.

situation is still tense as crowd jostles with police to get into the street.
