The impending doom as your elementary aged kiddo describes how their bestie didn’t want to eat or move at school today and laid with their head down on the desk all morning. The teacher didn’t send the child home until after lunch time, so the entire class was clearly exposed whatever it is. 😷 🥴

What's ominous is all of the trusted women of color who know a lot about AI are saying that a crash is on the way and the white guys are pretending they are taking it to the moon. This means that a crash is definitely on its way.

ICE detained a US citizen who was originally from Somalia.

They grabbed her because they didn’t like her hijab.

She says they sexually assaulted her and said things like “what are you hiding under your hijab”

She was held for 24 hours.

A US citizen. No one is safe.

Remember when the right used to whine about participation trophies?

What do they think Trump’s cute little FIFA medal is? So cringe. 😬

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.

I appreciate the reporting AND I want everyone to stop using criminal records as a stand in for whether people should or should not be harassed and deported.

Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

NEW: Mr. Abrego's lawyers believe that the lies DOJ told in the civil case warrant immediate dismissal in his criminal case. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/more-evide...
More Evidence Submitted to Dismiss the Charges Against Kilmar Abrego
Friday night, we learned that the DOJ lied about the door being closed to Costa Rica. Mr. Abrego's lawyers feel that's enough to immediately dismiss on vindictive and selective prosecution grounds.

Our president always just wanted the cool kids to like him. That’s what happened with Mamdani today in the Oval.

It’s utterly predictable and so easy to exploit. Bravo to Mamdani for playing him like a fiddle.

It's always hard to pick a worst day politically, but today the president called for the death of members of the opposition party, and the administration decided that people were being too hard on the swastika

He’s comparing healthcare to home insurance.

Saying the “healthy” should be rewarded.

It’s eugenics.

Disability can happen to anyone.

You know how a hurricane can destroy your home no matter how many “safeguards” you had?

That’s chronic illness.

It’s the hurricane. $2k won’t cut it.

This is completely disgusting. Today, the CDC updated their vaccine safety page. It now says:

“The claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism”.
