Easter reminds me of Lakota leader Spotted Tail being asked if he knew about Jesus—“I’ve heard all about him, how good he was, the great things he did. I also heard how the White man killed him. We never would’ve done that—we never would have murdered the Son of the Great Spirit”
Big Bend National Park has more bird species than any national park in America, one of the darkest skies on the continent, a river that is older than human memory.
Texas gave America this. And it's worth protecting.
This father was doing all of his legal immigration check-ins and had no criminal record.
He’s one of those heroic parents who dedicated his life to taking care of his disabled son, whom he was told would not live past five without a miracle.
As his son said, his father was his miracle, and he lived a meaningful, well loved life deep into adulthood. Then ICE snatched his father — and his son, as predicted, died without him. ICE did not let him attend the funeral.
The ICE bootlickers are kept in line by the fear that "White people will become the minority"
That is only scary if your only frame of reference is how white people have historically treated minorities.
The man in the Dropkick Murphys shirt is Michael Fanone, a former U.S. Capitol Police officer.
On January 6, he was assaulted by rioters—dragged down the Capitol steps, beaten with pipes, tased, sprayed with chemical irritants, and threatened with his own gun amid relentless verbal abuse. Fanone suffered burns, a heart attack, a concussion, a traumatic brain injury, and was later diagnosed with PTSD.
The man he’s confronting is Ivan Raiklin, a far-right political operative and election denier who has spent years advocating for the overthrow of the Constitution.
All things considered, Michael Fanone shows far more restraint and courage than most people could reasonably be expected to muster in his position.
Texas is a place with zero accountability. Stand outside like a coward while children bravely try & fend off a murderer, no worries! As Gov oversee a massive loss of life due to grid failures, get reelected. Drive you car into a BLM protest and shoot someone, here's a pardon!
NEW: The DOJ has filed a motion to block the appointment of an independent monitor to release the Epstein files in the Ghislaine Maxwell case.
The DOJ argues that federal courts lack the authority to enforce the Epstein Transparency Act and that Reps. Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie don’t have standing to recommend an independent monitor.
In short, it appears the DOJ’s position is that no court can force them to produce the files.
