Why is Trump withdrawing from the UN human rights review? Because his administration routinely violates Americans’ rights. By dodging UN scrutiny, he hopes the world ignores ICE's abuses, DHS's illegal deportations & his attacks on LGBTQ people.

RIP Graham Greene. Every time he popped up on screen when I was a kid, my mom would excitedly point him out for being an actual Native on the screen. Able to be deadly serious and infinitely hilarious (even in smaller roles like Last of Us), he ate up the screen. Nʌki’wah brother.

We undoubtedly should not. Papa Francesco schooled him on his nationalistic framing of some of Augustine’s philosophy, Ordo Amoris. If jdv pulls more of this selfish bombast with LX, I hope the Swiss Guards throw hands.

Your observation is correct. Both proscriptions are based on directives about purity and deference to God. Why is only one generally regarded as sacred/do not mock? This anti-Muslim provocation is not ok with me.

The problem isn’t refugees on boats. The problem is oligarchs hoarding obscene amounts of wealth while most people fight to stay afloat. Wages aren't tied to inflation, so the working class keeps falling behind no matter how hard they work.

Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.

Delightful to see this young Kingfisher on the river. You can tell she is young because her legs are still grey - they will turn orange/red as she matures. You can also tell she is female because her bottom beak is turning orange. The males' are black #birds #ukbirds #kingfisher #Scotland
