I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.

Yesterday was a tough day. Many folks were mad as hll, disheartened & frustrated.
It's easy to focus on the Senators who let us down, but let's not forget about the Senators who did the right thing.
I made this graphic last night because I wanted to focus on the good Senators who fought for us. 🔊🎵

U.S. Attorneys are not the President’s lawyers. They are the United States’ lawyers. You didn’t pledge an oath to a President, you pledged it to the constitution. This statement alone is reason enough to resign.

Kash Patel wants to criminally charge groups who received EPA grants for climate change projects. You know, like those greedy bastards at Habitat for Humanity.
He thinks climate change isn't real, so he thinks these groups have committed fraud.
Which of course is fucking crazy.

The oligarchs want to destroy our progress in addressing the climate and biodiversity crises. But our priority first has to be to prevent harm to our most vulnerable people. My banner reflects our urgent need to ensure the success and happiness of our transgender friends and families.

It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.

Plastics carry an enormous economic and health cost. Industry claims of a “circular economy” for plastics is greenwashing—is usually involves incineration which transfers rather than prevents pollution. We need to limit single-use #plastics in healthcare #OurPlanetOurHealth

"Zelenskyy is bad b/c he hasn't held elections and he didn't wear a suit to the White House" is an interesting collection of takes from an administration whose first cabinet meeting two days ago was run by an unelected guy in a ball cap and "Tech Support" T-shirt.
