the craziest thing about being an adult is that you could go through the most traumatic night of your life and you'll just have to go to work the next day
1 year of mass deportations
your rent hasn't gone down, groceries have gone up, gas has gone up.
Maybe it's time to admit immigrants aren't the problem.
you are not mad enough.
they ATE the babies.
they R*PED the toddlers.
they TR*FFICKED Pre-teens.
and THEY are the current world leaders.
wake up from your ignorance and care.
*Me being forced to read another 92 pages of the Supreme Court taking away my rights all because Metheny and Metthew voted for a white nationalist because they believe that taxing the rich puts their $27,942.53 annual salary and double-wide trailer at risk*
They do things like this because they consider white men and women as the standard for their governing rules, that is the very definition of institutional racism.
Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.
The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.
In case anyone isn’t aware, Trump is demanding Zambia to hand over its mineral rights by end of day tomorrow or the U.S. gov’t will cut off the country’s access to the AIDS medications that are literally keeping its citizens alive.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents just kidnapped 2 high school students as they waited for their school bus.
Max is 15. Israel is 18. They were standing outside their home in Mississippi, waiting for the bus like any normal morning, when unmarked cars pulled up, surrounded them, and agents zip-tied them in front of their family and classmates.
These kids were in the U.S. on student visas. Their host family had legal guardianship paperwork signed by a judge…
and ICE agents shrugged and said it “meant nothing.”
That’s where we are… paperwork signed by a judge means nothing, and a bureaucratic technicality is enough to justify armed agents grabbing unaccompanied TEENAGERS off the street.
Because that’s what this comes down to. A school transfer. Somewhere in that process, their visa status changed without them knowing, without their guardians being notified, and without any chance to fix it.
In any system that respects due process, you get a notice, you get time to respond, you get a chance to correct the issue.
This administration skipped all of that and went straight to detention.
And then they separated them.
A 15-year-old child taken away from his legal guardians, moved out of state, and for days, his family didn’t even know where he was.
So, let’s be honest about what this administration is doing…
They are creating a system where your legal status can disappear without warning, where you can be detained before you even know there’s a problem, and where families can be separated instantly with no transparency, and no accountability.
That is a direct erosion of due process, and it should alarm anyone who understands what constitutional protections are supposed to mean.
Two kids went outside to wait for the bus… and this administration decided to kidnap them.
Honest question: who here dines alone at restaurants sometimes? Raise your hand. I could use the reassurance that this is more normal than one weird bartender reaction made it feel. 🙋♀️
