Farm workers are harvesting broccoli in the Tehachapi CA area. "Victor" tells us, "This is very tiring work. We spend hours bent over stooping down as broccoli grows close to the ground. Each head must be individually cut with a sharp knife." #WeFeedYou

In 2025, Sewell delivered the benediction at Trump's second inauguration.

Right Wing Watch @rightwingwatch.bsky.social

After antisemitic white nationalist Jake Lang ranted that Muslims are "mongrel Third-Worlders" who are "multiplying like cockroaches," MAGA pastor Lorenzo Sewell called on church elders to lay hands on, pray over, & anoint Lang with oil: "I wanna pray for Jake, y'all. I love that. I love you, man."

The NYT obituary of Lindsey Graham makes no mention of his effort to overturn the 2020 election by calling Georgia’s secretary of state to intimidate him into manufacturing votes for Trump. The Times, like all news media, is GOP propaganda erasing Republicans’ history as election deniers

If you watch the Obama Library, the World Cup, and the Knicks parade this afternoon -- and nothing else -- you can actually see the America we're supposed to be at age 250

If you don’t like what you’re seeing at Delaney Hall, pay attention to what’s happening in Congress this week.   We must stop giving ICE and for-profit companies like GEO Group a blank check to create chaos.

This is what is needed in America today!

FLASHBACK: Barbara Walters called out Trump for being $3 BILLION in debt, infidelity, not talking to his son, reading the works of Hitler, etc Real Journalism used to be a thing! (Now ask yourself what long-term promises you might make to people if you were billions in debt…)

The irony of ICE detaining and disappearing the original Americans should stop everyone cold. As a Lakota proverb says, when you discover you’re riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount. This system isn’t broken. It’s dead.

Lies. Everything he says here is a lie, but it’s all a lie to justify his use of the Insurrection Act. Let’s keep peacefully overwhelming his masked fascist thugs.

Hochul: "They promised to extract revenge on their political enemies & apparently any state that has a D gov. Tell me how Florida & Texas could receive these same funds w/o having to go to court? They're playing politics, but more than that, they're playing with people's lives. And that's abhorrent"

“The 3.5% rule is a concept in political science that states that when 3.5% of the population of a country protest nonviolently against a government, that government is likely to fall from power.” If you can get to a No Kings rally this Saturday, please do.

A perfect example of why we MUST expose religion as harmful fraud. Religion is all too often the engine behind what drives the fanaticism that harms us all. It makes many think that a misguided hate-monger is somehow a "hero". We MUST put a stop to this insanity! #USA www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson: "Private establishments can partner with us to make it clear that private property is private property and ICE cannot enter establishments without a valid warrant ... If Congress will not check this administration, then Chicago will."

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

This weak, brazen attempt by Stephen Miller both to chill free speech and to set up a premise to criminalize it — and, to be clear, this is the very type of speech most central to First Amendment protections — would be laughably embarrassing if this man did not have the power that he has.

Two things can be true: 1) The President has legal authority over the D.C. police and the D.C. National Guard that he doesn't have *anywhere else* in the country; & 2) Even if this doesn't set a legal precedent, it sets an ominous *political* precedent for pretextually overriding local government.

He’s using the military against US citizens while gerrymandering democrats out of existence. The time to fight is now.
