An Egg McMuffin with OJ is now over 10 bucks. If you’re working a minimum wage job, that’s more than half an hour’s work in Arizona, and even more in many other states. Everything is more expensive in Trump’s economy.

Sak Pase, New York City!

I’m proud to once again join both Michaël Brun and Council Member Rita Joseph in wishing all the Haitians who call this city home a joyful Haitian Heritage Month.

And to Haiti’s national team: best of luck in the World Cup. Grenadye Alaso!

If you don't live in a "swing state," your vote counts less. But we can reform the Electoral College and fix that. Since we made this video, Maine and now Virginia have joined the National Popular Vote compact. Here's what you need to know. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EXPwJqSdLfE

They spent billions on regime change in Venezuela and left the Maduro's head of torture in charge. They are now spending billions on regime change in Iran, knowing the most likely outcome will be harder line leadership. We do not have serious people running our country.

Last month, a Pennsylvania farmer rejected $15M from data center developers to sell his farmland. Another in Wisconsin turned down $80M. America's farmers and others across the country are pushing back on Big Tech. This is what integrity looks like.

We used to think that the benefit of GLP-1 drugs (like Ozempic) was dependent on weight loss. Now we know so many health benefits have little to do with that! Today's report: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Large scale = factory farms = bad news for all of us.

Black farmers are getting shut out by the Trump administration. John Boyd, president of the National Black Farmers Association, says the WH told him, they are “moving away from DEI and small farm issues, and they were focusing on large-scale white farms… because they produce the most food.”

“ when people accumulate mass wealth and power, they begin to believe the rules no longer apply to them, and their behavior often drifts toward domination, exploitation, cruelty, violence, and the outright most vile and abhor.”

"Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉"

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@aoc.bsky.social

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

"Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters."

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@aoc.bsky.social

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

From JR Madill Foresteros: I've been a pastor for more than 2 decades and I can confidently tell you that the vast majority of people who attend church do not attend to be transformed, and certainly not to hear a pastor (or bishop) offer challenging correction. 🧵

So by all means be angry at Trump's response to Bishop Budde. But don't be surprised that so many Christians are angry at her too. Because they don't want to follow Jesus. They want Jesus to follow them and whisper, "You're doing fine. You don't need to change. I have the same enemies you do."

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps. The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years. History is repeating. Pay attention.

It was cold for Kennedy. It was cold for Obama. Small crowds? That's definitely easier to hide indoors. Or could it be that there are too many actual credible threats to the new emperor (and/or his puppeteer Musk)?
