🚨 It being Pride Month, the right wing propaganda-sphere is advocating for rolling back all gay rights. Remember a super majority of Americans support gay rights & gay marriage. They're trying to take us back over a decade and are revealing themselves to more moderate voters as fashies.

What we've seen at Delaney Hall, beyond the stifling of free speech, is a mismanagement of public resources, primarily by NJ Governor Mikie Sherrill. The state of New Jersey is spending $100k per day to temporarily chase protestors away for them to return the next day. It's asinine.

The response to protests at Delaney Hall could cause the opposite effect that NJ Governor Mikie Sherrill expects. By obstructing long term peaceful protests, it's more likely to have situations that get hot fast and burn bright. We shall see.

Jake Lang's U-Haul got towed today after only him and one of his Nazi associates showed up to a hate rally with hundreds of counter-protestors in Dearborn, Michan. U-Haul revoked the rental. 😂

Trevvy took this Nazi asshole's hat, mocked him for it and then gave it to a black lady. It's one of the funniest things I've ever seen. He's a hero.

Raumesh Akbari, Democratic Leader of the TN State Senate: "It's illegal…Splitting [Memphis] into three different districts and trying to rush it through in time for an August election shows that they're taking their orders from Donald Trump and not from the people of Tennessee."

Flash mobs will become the leading and most effective way to perform protests and when they do everybody better remember the innovation came from pissed off kids. 😉

Wages are not keeping up with skyrocketing inflation. Prices are going up on everything from rent, to groceries, gas, utilities and more. This is a cost-of-living crisis. We can start providing some relief by giving workers a raise NOW.

There is no clearer case for the necessity of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 than how quickly southern states moved to eliminate Black-majority districts and dilute Black power after SCOTUS eroded Section 2. SCOTUS’s reasoning was immediately disproven by reality.

Nurses are tireless heroes who care for the sick, aging, and injured members of our communities. During Nurses Week and every week, we celebrate their dedication and service and thank them for everything they do.

The Tennessee House today passed a new congressional map that will eliminate the state’s majority-Black district, which is anchored around Memphis. The legislature is meeting a week after the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act. www.washingtonpost.c...

Bluesky Thomas was killed in Sonora Behavioral Health Hospital in the Tucson metro. He was beat to death and strangled by techs. Now the same hospital is retaliating against employees who brought concerns to the hospital prior to this incident.

The Alabama House has passed HB 1 to allow primary election date changes in four districts if the Supreme Court permits using a previously blocked congressional map. This map will eliminate District 2 & cut black representation in half from the state of Alabama. alabamareflector.com/2026/05/06/a...

Iowa courts charge people $73 to $83 per hour for court-appointed lawyers. The law specifically allows for such charges when a defendant is found guilty or is acquitted, but not for dismissed cases—something prosecutors want to change.

boltsmag.orgIn Iowa, Prosecutors Want to Bring Back Court Fees as Bargaining Chips - BoltsThe state’s high court recently ended the practice of making defendants pay fees for charges that get dismissed. Prosecutors are backing legislation to undo the court’s ruling so they can keep using fees as leverage for plea deals.

There's no amount of BS that come out of Trump or his people's mouths that will offset the impact of this on working people. He found the way to hurt them the fastest he could. He should be reminded of that.

The number of OSHA inspectors hit a new low. For every 1 million workers, OSHA has only FIVE inspectors. The agency had 15 inspectors per 1 million workers in 1980. Working people can’t afford for safety enforcement to go backwards. Lives are on the line. aflcio.org/dotj

If you want to know what's going on in Trumpland his paid accounts on X will tell you. What were they posting about immediately after the WHCD shooting? The ballroom. Uniformly. Repeating the same argument.

Going by right wing media they seem convinced that there's SPLC informants in every RW group in America. That sentiment should be encouraged by the left. It disrupts their ability to organize anything bigger than a group chat. They're neutered by their own paranoia.

Kash Patel is arguing the SPLC had to create racists during the era of New Age Nazism, Western Chauvinism, White Identity Politics, GamerGate, Christian Nationalism.... If that sounds ridiculous, it's because it is ridiculous.

The SPLC indictment is doing more to divide the right than to intimidate the left. They're shackling people on their own side for allegedly being paid informants. The message is that they can't trust anybody. That alone should make people send the SPLC more donations.
