A 13-Year-Old With #Autism Got Arrested After His Backpack Sparked Fear. Only His Stuffed Bunny Was Inside.

#Disability rights advocates said #kids like Ty should not be getting arrested under Tennessee’s #school threats law. And they tried to push for a broader exception for kids with other kinds of disabilities. It didn’t work.

If you want to help keep the GOP in power for the rest of your life there's probably no better way to do that than to attack Democrats.
Trump's transition team is sidestepping federal funding rules, allowing them to raise unlimited "dark money" without disclosing donors, alarming ethics experts. By avoiding standard disclosures, the team raises concerns about foreign and undisclosed influence on his incoming administration. Critics warn of transparency issues and potential corruption.

For the denialism of suffering in my homeland, I'm sure the organizers wouldn't care. Racism has relegated us to irrelevance.
But I would have thought a prominent Muslim org would show more sensitivity for Syrians, a Muslim majority people.
It seems Palestinian solidarity gives everyone a pass, no matter how foul your transgressions are.
If hating Israel is all that is required with no humanitarian based ethical standards necessary...why not award David Duke? I'm pretty sure he qualifies.

Future generations are not going to care which of us voted for or against Trump, just like most modern people don't care which Germans in the 1930s voted for or against the Nazis.
What will matter to future generations is what we do or don't do to try and stop the crimes against humanity before and while they happen.

Trump’s Cabinet picks are depleting the slim GOP House majority, leaving Speaker Mike Johnson scrambling. Key votes risk collapse as red-district vacancies linger due to slow special elections. With internal GOP divisions and looming spending battles, Trump’s decisions are pushing Republicans toward legislative chaos. https://www.rawstory.com/trump-house-republicans-2669990508/

Manifestations contre les violences faites aux femmes à travers la France (mention du procès Mazan dans l’article)
« Ce procès à l’écho international, où démarre à partir de lundi le réquisitoire prévu pour durer trois jours, « montre que la culture du viol est ancrée dans la société, comme la violence envers les femmes », a souligné Amandine Cormier, de l’organisation Grève féministe, lors d’une conférence de presse mercredi à Paris. »
1. We don’t “argue” it. It’s a fact that there are no white people in the Bible
2. Yes white supremacists hijacked Christianity and enforced the claim that Jesus is white. This was codified in American state legislatures to also justify enslavement of Black people. How are you a lawyer and retired Intel officer and ignorant to this? White supremacy is blinding indeed.

GOP dominated Texas school board approves curriculum that incorporates Bible lessons for K-5 classes.
In Texas you can freeze to death in a winter storm, die due to denied abortion care, be shot to death due to no gun safety laws, banned from voting due to arbitrary purges, and be arrested for submitting a provisional ballot if you're Black—but by God you WILL learn the Bible in elementary school.
This is Christian nationalism and it is an existential threat to our republic.
