I voted yesterday. Democratic up and down the ballot.
I remember which party wants to destroy the planet and people who look different - whether it's lynching people in our streets or off the coast of the Pacific Ocean. Republicans.
Apparently, some Houston voters are putting their I Voted stickers on the Lorenzo Salgado Araujo memorial.
Stephen Miller is ALREADY trying to scapegoat others for losing whatever races they lose in Texas and elsewhere. This is a vivid testament that for some voters, his murder squad is the reason.
🔥 @anandwrites.bsky.social on Bill Maher: “Cities are unfairly labeled. A large % of (LGBTQ youth) homeless who end up in cities were failed in other parts of 🇺🇸 . Many families choose a verse in a Book over their child… cities are holding a lot of people you failed to love & take care of.”
Weekends.
Workplace safety protections.
Child labor laws.
Retirement security.
Paid time off.
These are things we enjoy today because workers fought for them and won. This Labor Day, let's get inspired and keep fighting for better for working people ✊
This is who Dolly Parton was. ❤️
“My dad couldn’t read and write, so I wanted to do something to make him feel part of something special.”
So she did. Dolly turned her love for her dad into the Imagination Library, putting more than 330 MILLION books into the hands of children.
Activists and community members gathered at The Home Depot in Monrovia for a vigil to mark the one year anniversary of the death of Roberto Carlos Montoya Valdez, and to remember others who have died over the past year during ICE raids, in ICE custody, or while in detention.

🔥 Jon Stewart Defends Democratic Socialism: “When you call it SoCiALiSm, I think it’s a misnomer — It’s about strengthening a safety net for a country that has suffered too long overvaluing capital and money, and undervaluing labor and work. That’s it.”
“Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.”

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days.
ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”
A federal appellate court handed a major win to ICE detainees in litigation over the Trump admin's mass detention policy.
In a 2-1 ruling, judges said detainees must get a bond hearing in 90 days to be given due process rights, noting the vast majority are non-criminals and longtime residents.
Nobody is making profits. It is going to burst and it is going to take all those data centers with it.
Keep your skills.
Practice your crafts.
Hold on to your books.
Stay sharp.
Can somebody explain to me why the rule is "if you can't make rent, cut out the streaming apps, lattes, and avocado toasts" but it's never "if you can't afford your workers a living wage, cut out the mega-yachts, rockets, and spaceships."
Nothing says ‘freedom’ like burning taxpayer money on dirt bikes at the White House for a billionaire’s birthday party. Bread’s expensive, rent’s worse, but sure, let’s fund a midlife crisis with fireworks and motocross. Peak empire decay. America is not a serious country.
If you were horrified watching elected leaders run & scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed.
Now, become a part of the solution & only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.
Wow 🥺 The Iranian national soccer team players with tiny backpacks as tribute to honor the children and teachers killed at the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls' elementary school in Minab, Iran ❤️🩹
National Press Club platforming Israeli ambassador - knowing IDF killed 250+ journalists - for lunch chat. In the same week Israel admits doctoring Lebanese journalist image after murder. Disgraceful & dystopian yet somehow still shamelessly in full view, to be broadcast on ABC
Everyone needs to stop what they’re doing and watch this video.
“It seems like there’s a lack of diversity here today, and it’s mostly people who look like you and me, and I just…?”
This lady’s response is🔥
Across the country yesterday, America’s unions were loud and clear: we won’t bow to President Trump’s billionaire-first agenda.
Working people are rising up and fighting for a future where we ALL do better. #NoKings
Please pray for our immigrant brothers and sisters and all our siblings of color who are traveling right now.
Please advocate on their behalf to all those in power, both faith leaders and political leaders alike.
Please do not look away from this continued gross misuse of power.
3 ICE vehicles were in a parking lot of a Columbia Heights restaurant on Central Ave this afternoon and there was a potential ICE vehicle by Pillsbury at pick up today.
A lot of politicians think it’s time to move on, but how can we move on when this isn’t even over.
Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.
The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense (not to mention a grave crime) and Congress should really act like it.
15 Republicans in the Senate could end this nightmare before it somehow gets even worse.
I served in the military for 20 years. Afterwards, I devoted another 25 years directly supporting the military, as contractor and civilian.
For those serving now, you are either participating in or supporting an illegal war. The orders to commit were illegal. You have an obligation to resist.
