#Afghan nationals left behind is indicative of not just incompetence on a tactical level but colonialism, white supremacy, misogyny and much worse. To put it blankly: The U.S. & U.K. evacuate[d] 200 Afghan cats & dogs, but not Afghan people. newsweek.com/why-dont-afghan…

So Texas trusts the decision-making skills of those openly carrying a deadly weapon more than women making their own health decisions.
A new law in Texas that went into effect Wednesday allows most Texans who legally own a firearm to carry it openly in public without obtaining a permit or training.
Experts say it will make it more challenging for law enforcement to protect the public. cnn.it/3BBKpgc

The U.S. still has time to save tens of thousands of Afghans whose lives are at risk because of the support and protection they gave to us. We urge everyone to read and reshare this letter as we continue to fight for our allies. #SaveOurAllies
