According to Native News Online, “Even there was strong militarized police presence on Wednesday which resulted in 76 water protectors arrested, the police did not set fire to the tepees.”
a woman literally died yesterday because she needed medical treatment and couldn’t get back into the country she’s lived in since 1995. you utter. fucking. morons.
update: a four-month-old baby who lives in Iran but has family who are American citizens in Oregon was scheduled to undergo urgent heart surgery at a hospital in Portland on February 5; she and her parents are now being denied entry to the United States. these kinds of surgeries take months to plan, and doctors have advised the family that the procedure needs to happen as soon as possible to save the child’s life.
so far, the consequences of the executive orders that “aren’t going to take anything from you or hurt anyone” include the death of a 75-year-old woman and the denial of life-saving medical treatment to a 4-month-old baby. get your fucking heads out of your asses you insensate bastards.

OH MY GOD. YES, BABY, YES. I AM SO HAPPY. I WAS THERE FOR HER WHEN TIK TOK CAME OUT AND EVERYONE TREATED HER LIKE SHIT AND I AM HERE FOR HER NOW. YES YES YESSSS
But like let’s talk about this for a minute? She just fucking won a major court battle against her abuser, like you go babe, tick tock round the clock and brush your teeth with a bottle of jack. She also won against the people who kept her abuser in a position of power over her. Like this is such a big deal. She gets to make music again and that’s awesome, but she’s a fucking rockstar for a whole host of other reasons.
