international women’s day

The term “law enforcement” should not be used by media, except perhaps in quotations. It has sadly become an Orwellian term that is used to magically sanctify violence. Language matters. Be specific. Describe individuals with names and ranks. Say exactly what they did. Don’t repeat fascist hocum.

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty.

Prof Skocpol making a crucial point here. The centralized police. And then the lawless quasipolice who guard the camps. Trump’s death bill moves the US towards those two thresholds, well known from Germany in the 1930s. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/criti...

typical corrupt science

Let food into Gaza NOW! Netanyahu and his government are starving 2 million civilians. This is day 76 of the blockade. Trucks with food are waiting to get in but are blocked. Children have already died from withholding food. The U.S. is complicit in this gross violation of international law.

April 28, 2025: Migrants are making SOS signs out of their bodies so drones can see them at our country's concentration camps.

When is it necessary and very good timing to murder civilians?

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

It’s weird* that the president can just decide to put a huge tax on American businesses without congress even being a little bit involved. * very unconstitutional

"5. Remember professional ethics.

Donald Trump has illegally invoked The Alien Enemies Act of 1798, a wartime authority, to detain and deport Venezuelan immigrants he deems to be members of criminal gang Tren de Aragua. This was last invoked during WWII to justify the internment of Japanese-Americans.

It is February 28 tomorrow. This means a total and complete economic blackout. This means buying nothing. AT ALL Not even your coffee!

what the actual fuck

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

For a brief moment at the end of February, every planet will appear in the night sky simultaneously in a rare celestial spectacle. This so-called planetary parade, which will occur shortly after sunset on 28 February, will be the last time the phenomenon occurs until 2040.

Buckle up, folks! Here comes the trade war! If you thought prices were high now, just you wait...

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

"Donald Trump's administration is lying to you." Gov. J.B. Pritzker slammed the White House for saying the freeze wouldn’t affect Head Start and Medicaid. This is how we do it. Call out Trump’s lies to the camera, bold, strong action. Hold him accountable, every single time.

Exactly this. Unilaterally deciding what and where taxpayers money goes to, above the very representatives themselves, is blatant corruption.

Breaking News: Colombia’s president said the country wouldn’t allow deportation flights from the U.S. until President Trump provides a process that treats migrants with “dignity and respect.”

Just finished The Hacienda by Isabel Cañas, highly recommend. Great vivid storytelling and compelling characters!

Hate has no place in this world. Dispelling hate in all its forms begins with having the courage to speak out against it. If you support having families be torn apart, or having people be told who they should love or how they should identify, then you are on the wrong side of history.
