The story on the coach confronting ICE tore my heart apart. What a brave soul. Those fucking gestapo thugs approaching kids practicing baseball is as un-American as it gets. WTF! Thanks for the link.

Heard a couple of good ones yesterday. If Trump gets dementia how will we know? And if a clown walks into the White House he does not become King. The White House just turns into a circus. And what the hell are they doing to our education system? And why do we have a pedofile in the White House? I just want to puke 🤮

I am so distraught today that there are no words. We live in dystopian times.

Does it make you feel any better to know how much company you have?

Yes. Of course. But the degradation of our society is still weighty. Sometimes I need to just tune it out.

Hola! A reminder - We have been here before. The united states has always been a fascist, authoritarian, police/militarized state that murdered, enslaved, jailed, stole the children of its citizens and the people who were here before the colonists.

What we are seeing today IS and always has been America.

This scotus is not the worst scotus. There have been many worse than what we have today.

Remember -

Black Americans born before 1965 was born without any civil rights.

So, everything is 'upside-down world' these days. But, I still don't understand how judges kept blocking the Biden administration on forgiving student loans while nobody can block the Trump administration from defunding and dismantling the entire Education Department. WTAF?

Let’s hear them tell us again how pro-life they are and watch 70 million mental rejects believe them. We have to do something about this Nazi court.

Guys: Obama is not talking to the millions of us marching, rallying, writing letters, and making calls. He's talking to the top dogs of the party who are shaking in their boots fearing that their favorite vote getters of the past lose to young outstanding newcomers, like Mandami in New York City, and the many young, excellent candidates. The old time leaders of the party must support the new, outspoken, candidates who can beat the mega idiots!

Fuck the kids. After all, they've already been born, so the Republicans won't care about them again until (assuming they've lived past school shootings, and ICE mistakes, and the Pedos in government) they're old enough to vote. At which time, they'll be cared about for a few days every other November.

Where have all of these sick f$cks been hiding. Props to the coach to protect his kids. We all need to be active bystanders. There is zero room for passive bystanders!

Devastating what they are doing to this country. As a teacher in a Title One school, I’m worried what the year will bring.

We’ll have to agree to disagree on the Obama’s words. How long have we been telling our Dem Reps to DO SOMETHING!! Don’t talk about it, don’t write letters, don’t hope they’ll “learn”. Become involved, speak up, and stand up! And, yes, many Americans are involved and protesting. But many are not. Everybody can be helpful somehow. Do what you can. And I’m glad O is speaking up. People respect him.
