To put this in perspective chestnut trees used to be dominant species in the United States. Billions of trees were killed by fungal blight and now fully grown America chestnuts are functionally extinct. There is no getting them back. Ever. All for a data center.

WTAF??? and who has the power to stop these fascist goons?
🚨 Latest from the border wall blockade: tree sit is still up, one land defender is locked down to machinery, Border Patrol has wrapped a Mylar blanket around them and is running the truck and pumping the blanket full of exhaust to try to gas them out, potentially killing them.

My god the cruelty is unfathomable (and yes I know this is not a new practice forcing terrified children to represent themselves in immigration court but it’s still horrifying). I will vote for any Dem who ensures Miller & co are sent to a super prison in El Salvador for this shit.

Pope Leo XIV celebrated Mass with an estimated 800,000 people in Paris on Saturday, after spending the morning with migrants, the poor, and adults newly entering the Catholic Church.
“For Christians,” he added, “the poor are not a sociological category, but the very ‘flesh’ of Christ.”

“No one is so poor as to have nothing to give.” Before Mass, the pope sat with migrants and told catechists to respect each person’s pace. Six altar servers with Down syndrome served his Mass.

Just did a quick look around and I don't see very many headlines about the President of the US making people pledge allegiance to him personally while telling everyone to commit election fraud and "cheat like hell" to support his party.
Seems like it should be a story?

Trump: "Please right your right hand. I pledge to the greatest president in the history of the United States. That loves us so much he can't even breath. That I will go out with my family, my friends, I'll do it any way - I don't care if I'm registered or not, I'm going to try to cheat like hell..."

Grieving not only for the horrific suffering inflicted on these poor people but also Haitians in the US sent into this living hell w/their children. Steven Miller, JD Vance & every GOPer involved need to be dropped from a moving helicopter into Haiti. No pain or terror too harsh for these monsters.
The situation in Haiti is terrifying. On Sunday, 150 gunmen swept down on a town to kill, rape, loot, and burn. 22 people were executed in a churchyard. 52 were taken hostage.
Stephen Miller mockingly says Haiti is safe and ICE just sent its second deportation flight this month; with kids on board.
