The bodies of 12 Paiute children have been found in unmarked graves at a Utah Indian boarding school.
Where’s the media coverage? Where’s the public outrage? Why doesn’t anyone care about what happened to our children?

If student debt cancelation is struck down by the Supreme Court, just know that @POTUS can sign another executive order canceling it via his authority given to him in the Higher Education Act.
We cannot allow them to put their hands up and say “oh well!”

Did not have to get his mugshot taken
Did not have to do a perp walk
Did not have to walk in handcuffs

This isn’t NYC today.
This was 1973, just after the EPA was created and before it transformed air and water quality. In those early years the agency enlisted photographers to catalogue environmental disasters before they were cleaned up. The climate crisis is reversing history.
BREAKING: George Santos's lawyer says Santos would rather go to jail pending trial than release the names of the 3 sugar daddies who paid his bail.
Co-signers of bail are typically public record.

RELEASE THE NAMES.

Ken Paxton suppressed 2.5 million mail-in ballots in Texas in 2020.
Donald Trump only “won” by 631,221 votes.
Stop saying Texas might turn blue “someday” — it might already be blue.
They won't call it a ban. Yet not only has my book been moved, but now elementary schoolers must request a copy from a specialist at its new site AND then also PROVE their reading level before seeing a copy. All these hurdles for a young reader just to access a poem in history written for them. @MDCPS , history is not ours to hoard from children. History has always been theirs to make. And the more they're empowered to know our yesterdays, the more prepared they will be to lead us into tomorrow.
This Memorial Day weekend I honor the 200 Powhatan Natives who were given poisoned wine during peace negotiations back in May 1623.
Again, you would’ve known this — had it been taught to you in school.
