Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

John Lewis walked, bled, and lived for justice. Five years since his passing, we honor him the only way we know how: By refusing to stay silent and getting in more Good Trouble.

i think it is bad that the president's budget director thinks congress is an advisory body and that the constitution is a set of recommendations www.huffpost.com/entry/russ-v...

Of course, they do. Their ancestors were paid when they lost their slaves after the Civil War. Yep. They got reparations.

Phang: Teachers are some of the least paid, most underappreciated people, and they work in such an intimate way in our lives. Your kids spend more time at school than they do at home, at least in waking hours. So why not encourage our teachers? Why create this oppressive environment?

“When the Executive publicly announces its intent to break the law, and then executes on that promise, it is the Judiciary’s duty to check that lawlessness, not expedite it.” -Justice Sonia Sotomayor

Ex-farm worker here. We need to talk about this whole "But a living wage for farm workers would spike the cost of food!" thing. Not true AT ALL. Y'all don't understand how fast experienced farm workers are. The average tomato picker pulls 650lbs per hour. At $20/hr, that's $0.03/lb for labor.

Padilla: "What if I was outside a Home Depot, because I like to do some work around the house, not dressed in a suit. Would I be a target of ICE enforcement under Tom Homan? Probably. And it is just wrong."

New York City’s mayoral race is taking up all the oxygen but the most consequential mayor in the nation is Los Angeles mayor Karen Bass who is defending her city, the state, and the nation against federal fascism. More democrats should be speaking up for her- including NYC folk 1 of 2

They’re eating the files, they’re eating the flight logs, they’re eating the list. 😉

We remember, Nancy.

John Leguizamo: "We feed this country, we serve this country, we build this country, and then we get treated this way."

everything about this article is so deeply American. exiling the truth teller, wanting to know the history but not too much, inability to come to terms with its own violent history. fam, this is as American as apple pie.

I'm so angry. Children are going to die. CHILDREN ARE GOING TO DIE BECAUSE OF THIS RULING

You know why I can't take some of you on the left seriously? Because when you didn't vote for Harris, you voted for exactly what's happening now. Don't think it's your fault? It sure as shit is.

If you’re not following the live drop of SCOTUS opinions on @scotusblog.bsky.social, you’re doing it wrong. Join the conversation here www.scotusblog.com

Bonta: We brought a lawsuit today on behalf of the governor and the State of California, challenging as unlawful the president’s federalization of the National Guard.. The authority he relies on does not permit him to unilaterally call in the National Guard.

ICE is the January 6 insurrectionists all over again. Only instead of attacking law enforcement, they are pretending to *be* law enforcement. And instead of just terrorizing at the Capitol, they are doing it EVERYWHERE.

Thinking of a hero I knew and admired.

“You can’t make this up.” - Marsha, making it up

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents. What the fuck are we doing here?

Are retailers allowed to say the reason why when store shelves are empty, or would that be a “hostile and political act”?

MAJOR BREAKING: Senator Chris Van Hollen blows up Trump’s lies and tells Call to Activism that El Salvador’s Vice President made it clear — it’s not El Salvador holding back Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s return. It’s Donald Trump.

I guess we shouldn’t be surprised. I mean it’s always a grift. I’m sure he will sell a ton of these hats whether he plans on “running” or not. 😩

Donald Trump is against due process even though he has benefited from it more than anyone else. And Donald doesn't just get *due* process, he get *undue* process, thanks to a corrupt, partisan Supreme Court.

Every single senator who voted to confirm Hegseth is equally responsible and owns this. Your confirmation served as a stamp of approval and your judgment shouldn't be trusted. This goes for every failure of any official confirmed by the Senate.

“BRING HIM HOME” 🔥

BREAKING: An immigration court determined our client Mahmoud Khalil to be removable from the U.S. based solely on his political speech. The fight isn't over — we'll keep fighting for Mahmoud's freedom and all of our First Amendment rights in federal court.

Do not obey

75% of those sent to El Salvador had no (zero) criminal record. According to Axios and CBS. We have due process for a reason

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

We often look back on the seminal moments in our history and wonder "What would I have done?" This is our moment. This is our time. We must stand up. We must speak out. We must do everything we can to stop a President who has every intention of destroying our democracy.

They’re going to keep pushing until something stops them.
