Please buy books that are coming out this year.
Doesn’t have to be mine. But there is a stellar release calendar this year especially of Black writers and it would be a shame if one of the fascist victories was people not buying those books (from the indies that are in the fight with us). #BookSky

Most of the moral messaging in children's television programming when I was a kid was utterly uncontroversial at the time, and would be attacked as woke indoctrination today.

Let's review the facts at hand here: A Democratic administration discovered and prosecuted a case of welfare fraud. Republicans are now using this case to smear hundreds of thousands of immigrants and militarize an entire city.
And your conclusion is that Democrats need to do something different?

So Trump is openly money laundering Venezuelan oil for cash through an offshore bank in Qatar, of which the control of the bank account is his, his alone.
He's doing this out in the open like it's normal. He's using the US military to steal the oil. Your tax dollars are funding International theft.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.
