"Released in 1985 and written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie, "We Are The World" united top music stars for a global mission. Beyond its harmonies, this powerful humanitarian anthem served as a call to action, sparking cross-generational empathy and raising vital aid for those in need."

Some things make me swear more than usual. The US has now recorded more measles cases this year than in any year since 1991, the highest in 35 yrs. As of now, there are 2300 measles cases. Meanwhile, federal funding is vanishing, Iran war costs &37.5B, our deficit increased by $5 TRILLION.
Protesters are heading down State Street in Madison, WI, for a planned sit-in aimed at disrupting the busy bar scene. Organizers say the action is meant to challenge "business as usual" and keep public attention focused on demands for justice. Mercado Media
Imagine watching your neighbour's house burn down and, instead of helping, complaining about the smell of the smoke.
Reminder... Any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message — they can't win on their ideas alone.
Jon Ossoff sums it up: “This is the cruelest & most arrogant group of people who ever ascended to high office - their cruelty & arrogance are only matched by their incompetence."
Every State should be doing this. We know he's going to interfere in the election because he knows if we win, it's the end of his regime.
AOC: An agency that is attacking U.S. citizens, kidnapping five-year-olds and using them as bait, and privately circulating the idea that they can violate the rights of Americans by busting down their doors—they deserve to be defunded, and I’ll take any step in that direction.
In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.
AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.
@chrislhayes.bsky.social: “A 37-year-old American citizen, the mother of a young child is dead tonight. She was shot in the face by an agent of the federal government, and that government has spent the day telling despicable lies about her.”
A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.
I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy. She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.
