Renee Good's family deserves accountability and justice.
The officer responsible for her death must be prosecuted and ICE must be abolished. This is the bare minimum.
No family should have to suffer this kind of loss and trauma ever again.
“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”
Malcolm X
My grandparents survived the terrible abuse of the Federal Indian Boarding School Era. That trauma wasn't isolated to the past—it was carried down through my family all the way to me. And there are so many families like my own across Indian Country.
When I became Secretary of the Interior, I knew it was my duty to help heal those wounds. We launched the Federal Indian Boarding School Initiative to uncover records, bring these stories to light, and ensure the truth could no longer be hidden.
Today, I wear orange to honor the Indigenous children who endured these schools, the families who saw their children ripped away, and the generations who continue to carry that trauma. 🧡
We must remember, tell the truth, and keep working toward healing and a more just future. 🧡
NAOMI KLIEIN to SAM ALTMAN:
"...you ingested the entire written output of human civilization without consent, without compensation and without credit to build a system whose primary commercial application is eliminating the jobs of the people whose work you consumed.
You are not 'liberating human creativity' -- you are strip-mining it and selling it back at a markup while calling the theft 'training data'."
Sharon Stone: “We don’t want to give women OBGYN care and we want to prosecute women for having a miscarriage? What kind of arcane bullshit is this? If men got pregnant you could get an abortion from a vending machine”
NEVER FORGET
On January 6,
2021, six men dragged this officer down the Capitol steps.
He heard one scream, "I got one!" before the others ripped off his badge, stripped him of his radio, and seized his ammunition that was secured to my body.
They beat him with their fists and what felt like hard metal objects.
He heard chanting from some in the crowd - "Get his gun!" and "Kill him with his own gun!"
This officer suffered a heart attack and a traumatic brain injury.
Trump pardoned those six men.
“Would you like to request voluntary departure, or should I issue a removal order?” The judge asked.
“I don’t know,” Angel, 13, replied before bursting into tears. He stared ahead stoically and continued to cry, eventually saying: “I have no one. I have nothing.”
This is so brutal, so cruel, so horrifically unfair.
There is nothing that shows the horror of the Trump administration in this country more than this.
I’m sorry, the clip of Zohran Mamdani getting on a Citi Bike while someone yells out “communist!” and him replying that it’s actually pronounced “cyclist” is forever etched in my mind.
I aspire to achieve this level of quick-witted and respectful clapbacks!
Nolan Wells didn't drown. Emmett didn't whistle. Philando didn't reach for a gun. Trayvon didn't harass. Sonya Massey didn't call the police to die. Ahmaud didn't trespass. Breonna never woke up. Sean Bell didn't make it to the altar. George and Eric couldn't breathe. Rekia didn't pose a threat. Laquan was walking away. Kendrick did not roll himself up. Mike Brown was only jaywalking. Sandra Bland did not commit suicide. Botham Jean couldnt enjoy his ice cream. Tamir Rice didn't have a gun.
Democrats,
PLEASE stop focusing on the crowd size for a Democratic candidate and START focusing on getting out the vote and making sure the voting locations are actually open.
Especially in Texas.
Focus on getting the vote and protecting it.
Not the size of crowds at speeches.
Talarico is beating Paxton in the polls. Cool.
But if you don't think every GOP Texan is showing up, plugging thier nose and voting for Paxton in November - you're a fool.
EVERY DEM needs to get out and vote Blue!
Israel’s PM Benjamin Netanyahu said Zohran Mamdani is making Jews in New York City feel “unsafe.”
Here I am, a Jew in New York City, standing a few feet away from a massive anti-Netanyahu protest, and I feel completely safe.
Benjamin Netanyahu is a liar. And a war criminal.
