Buh buy. Deactivating. Finally. Will give Bluesky a chance. Hopefully the same handle… billionaires suck, especially the selfish ones

While many are talking about losing hope or moving to other countries, Native people have survived under U.S. government leaders that wanted us dead since the very beginning. This is still Native land, and will always be Native land. We never had the luxury to stop fighting.

There goes the Key Bridge, the red line, train station updates, train tunnel…. What else can we be deprived of to live up to our sh*thole namesake he bestowed on us last time around?

[flokoul @flokoul]

Fools, just like my late Chicano father who was called Pancho by his co workers in the 70s & 80s but died in 2019 w Fox News on 24/7. I found it haunting, returning from the hospital the evening he died and Fox was left on the TV

Polling still find that most Latinos consider Democrats the more welcoming party. Republicans get read as racist. But Latinos vote strategically—the economy ranks as their #1 issue; racism trails far behind. And some think Democrats are also racist. 5/9

[flokoul @flokoul]

Right. If only we understood our history as Latinx people; if only we had been teaching ethnic studies, the history of Central America, colonization, etc. Shameful

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

Latino voters did not vote against their interests, if you understand that the person who gets into a treehouse has an “interest” in pulling up the ladder behind them.

Trump only promised to push the “bad” Latinos out of the tree… and they’re confident that doesn’t mean them.

Russia calling in bomb threats to polling places in liberal districts across the country should be bigger news right now. They’re interfering for Trump right in the open, right in front of our faces

[Amy Spitalnick @amyspitalnick]

How is Russia calling in bomb threats to overwhelmingly Democratic and Black poll sites not a bigger story right now?

Tr*mp TV ads are full of lies. Not sure how this is even allowed on air.

Pennsylvania’s Ukrainian community could swing the state in this election—and for those of us with roots in Ukraine, only one candidate offers hope for a safer, democratic future, writes Gary Wasserson, a Ukrainian Children board member. https://t.co/eoWSn2Smfu

Early voting line in Baltimore city w rumbles from an old black man about keeping that Trump out of office! #Baltimore #voting #Harris_Walz2024

Biden's apology is just the beginning. Truth is, there were over 523 government-funded & church-run Native American boarding schools. It's time to confront the past & demand justice for the present. Use this map to learn how your community was impacted. https://t.co/lQV6mBj8AV

[The Associated Press @AP]

BREAKING: President Joe Biden is expected to formally apologize for the country’s role in the Indian boarding school system, which devastated the lives of generations of Indigenous children and their ancestors. https://t.co/7055O4trro

[CSPAN @cspan]

President Biden: "I'm heading to do something that should have been done a long time ago; to make a formal apology to the Indian Nations for the way we treated their children for so many years. That's why I'm heading west."

Three years after President Biden became the first U.S. president to formally commemorate Indigenous Peoples’ Day, more than a dozen states recognize some version of the holiday in lieu of Columbus Day. Here’s the history behind it. https://t.co/UfxUkMtNRG

The People’s House is a song that celebrates this beautiful place that we call home, from sea to shining sea. 

The truth matters. And the truth is on election day I’ll be voting for @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz because I believe in the power of we, not of me. I’ve written a song reminding us that out of many, we are still one.
