I am a feminist and former couples therapist. My book, Maybe it’s Him: How Couples Therapy Fails Women comes out next June. The book tackles the question, why does relationship inequality persist and argues that couples therapy isn’t the answer.

It’s not only racist, it’s the next step in social control-anyone who opposes the regime is a terrorist.

The article states that everything in the documents has come to pass. Jurisdictions where police are not cooperating with ICE are (even when prohibited by state law) are the exception. Police have also cracked down hard on protesters. The lack of investigation into ICE violence is also telling.

In order for sufficient conditions to exist for democracy, we need to keep pressure up on Dem leaders and ordinary citizens to step up. This means criticizing them when what they are doing is insufficient. There is no “either or” position. People can vote and ask Dems to do more.

Yes but this isn’t enough. The people need to reclaim the full role of citizenship and our representatives need to think outside the box. Did you see Raskin is leaking names from the Epstein files? That’s an example.

Here’s a thought-eliminate the presidency and the senate. We can have a parliamentary system with proportional representation. All we have to do is admit our current system has failed.

Just as citizenship goes way beyond voting, so does political representation. Claiming that the Democratic political class is helpless because they are in a minority is nonsense. When the majority of Democrats do more than cast their votes and we will take back Democracy.

What concerns me is that this plan is not secret. It’s part of Project 2025. Unfortunately white Americans view the police as on their team and refuse to believe they are content to work hand in glove with a fascist government.

Calling this tactical confusion makes it seem as if ICE is willing to avoid killing people. They are killing people on purpose. This is not a bug, it’s a feature.

Unmarked lunatics with guns attack your car when your kid is with you— you drive off too. Anyone who say otherwise is a liar. They almost killed the kid. What the fuck are we doing? 😳🇺🇸

Ending austerity measures will also help the economy grow. Just saying…

Border patrol/ICE are using violence as a means of social control. This is the beginning, not the end and many more groups will be targeted. So far only small groups are pushing back. A massive non-violent public response can stop this. Only you can prevent fascism.

“My friends don’t feel safe to call the police, because they think that’s going to get them deported. They don’t feel freedom,” says a young Salvadoran man whose stepfather was arrested by a sheriff’s deputy in Frederick County and eventually deported.

ICYMI, this is a superb article by @boltsmag.org about Virginia’s proposed constitutional amendment to automatically restore voting rights for people with felony convictions when they exit prison.

11,000 people have been taken by ICE in Minnesota... Let that soak in a minute..

Women’s labor and bodies are viewed as community property when domestic and emotional labor is gendered. When women cannot access abortion care, her body is being treated as community property. When women are told they must provide sex to partners on demand etc.

Fathers need to have these conversations with their sons. It needs to go beyond sexual assault to bodily autonomy including labor. When families treat women’s labor as community property, a message is sent about bodily autonomy. This means better modeling in families, not just a few conversations.

When Acret’s daughter Mackenzie was stabbed 78 times, her two year old was present. A neighbor ran into the house, saved the boy and then barricaded herself in her home. The child was covered in blood. Over a third of women experience DV and many children are witnesses.
