America's cruel #migration settings are the reason these desperate people have to risk their lives in the #Darien gap.
Both parties are locked in a xenophobic, fascist approach to the border and its racist policy. You currently can't vote for humane border policy in the US. I hate that the dignity of migrants is a political football.

Five stars: "The Enormous Radio" by John Cheever (1947) was published originally in the May 17, 1947 issue of The New Yorker. In it a family buys a new, expensive radio and weird stuff happens that is probably more recognizable to a modern audience than it's original readership.

Y'all need to stop trying to paint pro-racism white women as the victims. They're not the victims. They're the perpetrators of about half the racism experienced by Black folk.🙋🏿♂️

I'll never understand why y'all convince yourselves election after election that white women are finally going to vote overwhelmingly against fascism, and why y'all get mad at me when I say "No they wont!" and why y'all are genuinely surprised every time when they choose fascism again.

David Plouffe wrote on X that late-deciding voters are “breaking by double digits” for Kamala Harris, with “the remaining undecideds looking more friendly” to them than Donald Trump.
Politico: “His comments echo those shared by senior campaign officials earlier Friday on a call with reporters.”

Truth.
They didn’t stop abortion
They stopped safe abortion.
They didn’t ban books
They banned thinking.
They didn’t burn witches
They burned women.

Yesterday, @aaron.rupar of Public Notice & David Nir, our publisher, held a live discussion asking, "Can American democracy survive a full-scale assault?" They talk voter suppression, election subversion, Trump's dark plans & more. Watch the full event here!
A survey of OBGYNs in Texas found that 72% of respondents agree or strongly agree that current laws prevent them from providing optimal medical care. A majority fear repercussions.
76% strongly disagree or disagree that they can follow best practices or evidence-based standards.
More than 1 in 5 said they’ve considered leaving Texas, and 1 in 50 said they already have.
More than 1 in 10 said they plan on retiring early, while 1 in 25 said they are no longer practicing obstetrics. 1 in 30 are leaving medicine entirely.
The brain drain is real. Not all doctors will leave, but many of the smartest ones will. I'd sure as heck get out if I were in that situation. Now. As a potential patient, which state would you rather live in.
Just another aspect of this cold civil war we're in
Alberta doesn't pay into CPP. Individual Canadians do and each individual Canadian pays the same premiums and get the same benefits no matter where they live. Danielle Smith wants you to believe that Alberta, a province with 12% of the population and 16% of the contribution, can walk away with 53% of the fund because that's "just math".
There is no money to pay for Smith's touted $1,425 saving or $5,000 retirement bonus, because there is no $334 billion transfer amount.
Trump lies. Always.

in reply to mekka okereke • • •How many "white woman goes racist" videos do y'all need to see before you believe Black folk that these women don't need to be coerced to act this way?
Half of the time I've had to deal with a racist white woman, her husband has been level-headed and super embarrassed, trying to make sure that they don't wind up on the next viral video.🤷🏿♂️
Racist people come in all genders. All. Genders.
About half of US racists are women. Women are not less likely to be racist.
I said what I said.

in reply to mekka okereke • • •I have a mixed race friend who had a southern redneck (his words) grandmother. You can’t ever hear stories about her and think white women are innocent. She was racist to her own grandkids.
That, and who is in all those pictures spitting on the Black girls integrating schools? White women.
