The fact that it's only 50% of the American population that is calling for abolishing ICE is still too low. ICE is a lawless thug force with indiscriminate powers and no accountability. The more Americans experience this, one would hope that it would become 99% of the population.
So it turns out Americans donβt love widespread cruelty.
50% of voters have now embraced "Abolish ICE," including a surprising 25% of Republicans. Keep pushing. All gas, no brakes.

I took my eight year old daughter to a protest on Saturday and my heart could hardly take it.

I just signed a petition telling President Trump: No War for Israel! Help reach the signature goal βΒ add your name too: nowarforisrael.org?source=blues...

Thatβs appalling from the supposed richest country on earth that decided to start a war for nothing.
They can find plenty of planes to fly innocent immigrants to countries theyβve never been to but canβt find any planes to fly out American victims of American foreign policy and war!
The Trump regime doesnβt care about our citizens or the consequences of their actions!
Dump Trump

Dr. Asfia Qaadir tells listeners on KPFK's Middle East in Focus that, for health care workers, solidarity is a matter of maintaining their oath to protect life. I interviewed Dr. Qaadir when I was reporting on backlash against healthcare workers who spoke out for Palestine.

There's one thing that I wish AI promoters could understand: writing is not a means a product.
I write to learn something, to experience something, and to come to know more about myself in the process. It doesn't matter what I produce - what matters is how I got there. ποΈ
This is me. The examination and the note-taking and the thoughts they spark, thatβs how I process and understand. Consuming a generated summary would skip so much of the actual productive work.
