If you’ve never seen Dorothea Lange’s photographs of the World War II internment camps and the Japanese-Americans who were imprisoned there, today is a good day to see them and to commit to making sure this never happens again.

Isn't it interesting that they're trying to frame themselves as initiating *that* war instead of the Civil War? Wannabe Confederates still don't like being called what they are. Probably because it reminds them they lost the first time.

If Biden did drop out they chose the person who got the second highest number of votes in the Dem primary process, who would that be? No one of any note ran, right?

I saw a few of my black friends posting about it and was like, “he said that?!” and was similarly struck by the fact that it was the only place I saw it mentioned.

People putting their kids in cars driven by people who have no advanced training or any accountability for their actions is terrifying to me. Women alone already have issues.

The most shocking thing about Trump has been the number of people willing to do his dirty work no matter how dirty and no matter how many people who have chosen this have ended up in jail before them.
