ICE pepper-sprayed this 1-year-old girl.

Once at the hospital, the doctor had to call in a poison control specialist.

They had never seen anyone that young pepper sprayed.

Another horrific story.

More details below.

When the storm is so full on that a mere 6 seconds is bordering on over-exposing the image!
So bright. Soooo bright.

Did you know your appendix can go from enlarged to inflamed to bursting in less than 24 hours? After an unexpected appendectomy and a 4 day hospital stay, I am finally home and in my own bed. Recovery is going to take a while but I look forward to drawing again 🧡💤✨

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

As Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis stated in 1933; “We can have democracy in this country or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of the few, but we cannot have both.”

Today, at a time of unprecedented income & wealth inequality, his words ring truer than ever.

Stop accepting the cynical notion that “nothing can be done” about guns, or anything else for that matter. Every time you give up hope, the emperor has already won.

So now that the Trump administration is coming to realize they totally committed international crimes, they’re realizing they must buy off or threaten the court/officials that decides this stuff. This is his life’s work. If you did it & there’s evidence, make it so they can’t do anything to you.

It is currently Europe, not the US, which is supporting Ukraine's fight against tyranny.

Please bear that in mind whenever US politicians start talking about NATO contributions and alleged European "free-loading".

Watch this. Then remember that the president doesn’t care. He cares that his old ass gets richer in the hand full of years he may have left.

And his sick rich friends. The most corrupt evil man to ever serve as president is ignoring real evil
💔 A European Parliament interpreter could not hold back tears during the speech of 11-year-old Roman Oleksiv from Lviv.

The boy survived a missile strike on Vinnytsia on July 14, 2022, which killed his mother - it was the last time he saw her alive.

Congress just gave $900 billion to the US military in case you were wondering if there were any repercussions for blowing up civilian ships on the high seas. Meanwhile, the FIFA peace participation trophy guy still manages to keep the Epstein list out of the headlines.

If you make a billion dollars — or $500 million or even $100 million dollars — and you keep trying to make more, then there is something seriously wrong with you. It's a mental illness akin to hoarding or drug addiction.
