We have a first in American history.
#trump and his administration have been found in contempt of court, opening a door for criminal prosecution against Trump, and anyone involved in the #crime of kidnapping #kilmarabregogarcia and then refusing to facilitate his return.
It's a constitutional crisis and it will be an interesting point in #history to witness.
Our president is literally a criminal. He was before he was elected.
Two women enter a high end hotel in #Boston, male security guard enters women's washroom, bangs on stall door yelling about proof of gender as woman is using the toilet, guard kicks both women out as other women yell and scream at them for being male creeps who are pretending to be women.
Both are cis female

When he died, there were no flags, no procession, no cannon fire. William “Billy” Lee was always there—riding with Washington in war, walking beside him in peace. He served at Cambridge, Valley Forge, Yorktown—silent, indispensable. But when the story of Washington was told, Billy was left out of the frame. His life was one of duty without recognition, loyalty without reward.

Yes, I'm an anarcho-syndicalist, bisexual, gender-fluid, autistic, radical leftist!
I won’t apologize for being an anarchist or for being autistic. Autism rules, and so does anarchism!

radio says $1800 on average for a 1 bed right now in Kingston per rentals ca or whatever. #ODSP gives a max $522 for housing for a single person. If the Liberals had put in their #UBI it would've been $2000, leaving you with $200 to live off of. But #DougFord has only increased ODSP by $50 in 9 years.
Most #Disabled people are like me, we WANT to work, but physically can't. We are almost on death's door as it is, and it's ODSP or die in a gutter.
So the assassin in Minnesota was a wearing a police uniform and had a police car. Think about it...

CBC: Conferences relocating to Canada over harsh new U.S. border measures
The majority of the global population want governments to do more on tackling climate change, but often believe they are in the minority.
This 'silent majority' represents both an untapped source of support for environmentalists, but also a potential problem for politicians seen as unwilling to push the climate as a key political concern!
Can this 'silent majority' find a more powerful voice?
And if it does what would be the consequences?

Perhaps the quickest way to get Stephen Miller dumped on his ass would be to shift the branding. Instead of Trump’s immigration policies, elevate Miller with the blame he deserves. Trump hates sharing the spotlight. #politics
