BOOK BAN BEATEN.

The second largest city in Manitoba Canada just said HELL NO to the 6 assholes demanding a committee be created to start banning books for ALL students in their public school.

USA citizens, this is how we win here:

1. Get out the word that right wingers are targeting your school to take away books.

2. Flood the school board with opposition to a book ban. Check out the video to see how many messages they sent in.

3. Show up. Get there for proposals, debates... speak out. Make it impossible for them to screw over the public quietly.

This is what Jason Foster did (pictured). He and his community WON.

We're in a global fight against hate and against fascism.

If they can do it in Canada, we can do it here.

Anne Frank's father, Otto, visits the attic where they hid from the Germans in World War II. He stands alone as he is the only member of his family to have survived the Holocaust, 1960

This picture was taken in 1960 in the Netherlands, where the Frank Family hid from German troops. The Frank family were Jews during a time when Jews were sent away to be killed in concentration camps. The Franks are one of the most well-known Jewish families during the war due to Anne Frank (Otto's daughter) writing a diary about her experiences in hiding. Her diary has been republished and has sold more than 30 million copies and has been translated into 70 languages. In her diary, she talks about life in hiding, school, growing up and her fears about the German forces in the area.

At some point, the Franks were found. There are varying accounts as to how they were caught. Some say they were betrayed, and some say there were just found by German troops when they inspected the house they were hiding in. The door leading to the attic was hidden behind a bookcase, but it is not known for sure how the Germans knew it was a false door which led to the secret hiding spot. They were in hiding for 761 days.

Anne and her sister Margot were sent to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. They died there in March 1945 due to Typhus fever as the camp had a massive outbreak problem of Typhus at the time. They died two weeks before the camp was liberated. Anne was only 16, and Margot was 19. Their parents, Otto and Edith, were sent to Auschwitz Birkenau, the worst of the concentration camps. Edith would die of starvation three weeks before the camp was liberated. Otto survived and lived until he died in 1980. Edith would be buried with him 18 years later. Their daughter's bodies were never found.

During a road rage incident, a man shot at another man’s car and hit a 5-year-old. The other man shot back and hit a 14-year-old.

Attempted murder charges were dropped due to Florida's “Stand Your Ground” law. Permitless carry will only make this worse. https://t.co/6CBAuaMr3t

Not only is mifepristone safe and effective, it's been used by over five million people since the FDA approved it over 20 years ago.

This decision could have devastating consequences. But I promised to fight like hell.

I'm not backing down.

Bette Midler thinks that Viagra should be banned if anti-contraceptive pills are banned.

She tweeted that “it’s time to ban Viagra because if pregnancy is ‘God’s will,’ then so is limp d*ck.”

Do you agree with Bette Midler?

YES or NO?

[Ana Navarro-Cárdenas @ananavarro]

Thomas has done it to himself, John. You were a judge. You (and your wife) know what the position requires, ethically. You would have never done this as a Judge. And yes, it should apply to Senators as well. I remember McCain faced consequences for unreported yacht-trips.

BREAKING: The Tennessee GOP's expulsion vote is already backfiring big time, as a majority of Nashville’s city council members say they’ll vote to send @brotherjones_ back to the state Capitol as soon as Monday. 👏👏

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

BREAKING: After Kamala Harris gave this tremendous speech yesterday in Tennesee, President Biden has just invited the heroic 'Tennessee Three' to the White House.

Republicans keep trying to take cancel Americans' rights and Biden / Harris keep fighting for to bring them back. While most MAGA republicans are blind to this fact, thankfully Gen Z gets it, and in 2024, Gen Z will come out to vote in massive numbers!

This nation was built on peaceful protest. No elected official should lose their job simply for raising their voice – especially when they’re doing it on behalf of our children.

BREAKING: AOC calls for Clarence Thomas to be IMPEACHED over his illegal gifts from a mega donor!

“This degree of corruption is shocking…Thomas must be impeached,” AOC tweeted.

Significantly, AOC also slammed the Roberts led court generally, and said unless this corruption was dealt with, this court will be known for “rank corruption, erosion of democracy, and the stripping of human rights,” she said.

Smash the 💙 if you agree with AOC!

CLARENCE THOMAS MUST BE IMPEACHED!

[Marty Taylor @marty_taylorr]

Not only did the fascist Tennessee GOP kick Rep. Justin Pearson out of the House. Now they are threatening Shelby County that if they reappoint Pearson they will cut off all state funds to Shelby County and Memphis. This is another example of an out of control Republican party that is drunk with power.

North Dakota Republicans just voted to raise their own meal reimbursements to $45/day— less than two weeks after blocking a bill to provide free school lunches to low-income students. https://t.co/v0IRggFitR

BOOM: OBAMA slams Tennessee Republicans for their UNDEMOCRATIC ousting of two lawmakers.

“This nation was built on peaceful protest. No elected official should lose their job simply for raising their voice – especially when they’re doing it on behalf of our children,” Obama said.

“What happened in Tennessee is the latest example of a broader erosion of civility and democratic norms. Silencing those who disagree with us is a sign of weakness, not strength, and it won’t lead to progress.”

Right on President Obama! Thank you for speaking out. 💙

[Victor Shi @Victorshi2020]

YES. House and Senate Democrats took off the gloves and wrote a letter to Chief Justice John Roberts demanding a "swift, thorough, independent, and transparent investigation" into Clarence Thomas" and if they don't, Congress will act. More of this, please.

[Angry Staffer @Angry_Staffer]

I really need someone to explain to me how some chickenshit judge is allowed to — on a holiday weekend, nonetheless — overrule the *FDA* on anything medical, much less something that’s been settled for over 20 years.
