- Yep. Nothing has ever been more blatant. They’re trying to keep America majority white. Therefore, obsession with birth rates, positive eugenics as well. Their deadline to “save” the white majority, and thus perceived power, is 2045; this isn’t a secret: www.brookings.edu/articles/the...
- I just can’t.
- Oh, don’t get me started. Seriously. Cheers to my friend @alexip718.com for saying the quiet part out loud. Many are afraid to because their orgs and team members could be blacklisted and punished. Already happened to @kimberlygriffin.bsky.social and me at least once to our faces.

- I realize they're racist af but not I'm not so sure they care about the poors all that much either.
- No. And not even keeping them voting for them, which could say something about their plans to hold another election. But this doesn’t just hurt poor people.
- And worse, take advantage of the bumbling to use it to destroy our nation and democracy.
- Meantime, rural America (of all races) needs some serious equity in resources including hospital and emergency-room access. But they use it as a buzzword to froth up bigotry. It’s like my childhood all over again.
- It’s Mother’s Day, so meet my mom Miss Katie if you haven’t. This week I was with my brother in Neshoba County learning even more about her. I owe it all, and more, to her. Her strength, compassion and wisdom continue to touch so many. That is her legacy. 🌹 www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...
- OK, fix America’s food deserts, to name one thing. And stop trying to stop vital vaccinations and roll back medical services and research. Ordering people to be healthy (include RFK and Trump and their followers?) is absurd.
- Keep sharing. There are many angles in this one due to all the neighbors, mostly women, who stepped out to support this family. A few Bible verses come to mind for their efforts, in fact.
- Massachusetts neighbors tried to stop ICE from ripping away a mother who was with two children, including a newborn baby. The agents had no warrant. Those who want “illegals” to uphold the law should start by upholding it themselves. This is vile, cruel, and unforgivable. Period. #OnYourSide
