My god. 6 MILLION acres of public lands in Oregon, including the vast majority of our national forests, will be sold in a fire sale if the MAGA budget passes.

this is such a massive historical land grab. I imagine some nonprofit entities may try to buy some up and conserve it but it's probably mostly going to be maximally exploited. This could irreparably damage some of the last ecosystems on Earth that could survive climate change.

If we abolish the police, who will witness assassinations before allowing the murderer to leave?

Imagine asking these people to condemn the murder they're gleefully mocking.

Kept the eye. The more I think of it, the more I feel I was targeted because of my previous protests.

A few thousand people gathered for Donald Trump's fascist military parade. Many millions assembled to oppose it. Trump's core of support is comprised chiefly of stay-at-home racists and mercenaries who hurt people for pay. Those who act according to their consciences overwhelmingly oppose him.

On Father’s Day, thinking abt William/Bill Thrasher (1935-2003) and how as a USAF vet who became a peace activist & held this sign, circa 1984: “SALVADORAN WOMEN & CHILDREN RAPED, TORTURED & MURDER WITH US MILITARY AID.” His politics hampered his education career. I am very much my father’s son.

after the hundreds of thousands of deaths that occurred during the iraq war, nobody was held accountable. those who lied, got away with it. those journalists who pushed for war still have careers today. that must not be allowed to happen now. those who support & commit genocide must be made to pay

First, Israel cut Gaza’s last internet cable—blacking out 2.3 million people. Then it bombed Iran with no UN approval, no imminent threat. As eyes shift to Iran, Israel will escalate its ethnic cleansing in Gaza—and create more regional instability.

A key Obama—and Harris—strategist is going to work for a crypto scam (he worked at Uber before). It’s emblematic of how corrupt the Democratic Party is at an institutional level. The path to a more free, more fair, more just country requires a new political system that enables new parties.

I’m telling ya, they have no plans to surrender power. Ever. Get that through. Internalize that. Abolish ICE is the weakest solution.

I JUST sounded the alarm in the Oversight committee on the fact that this administration has threatened to arrest elected officials and they have. A judge, a mayor, a Representative, and now a US Senator in his OWN STATE during an open press conference. Governors will be next.

Wife is out of town for work. At an ICE protest while there. I do my best to explain to goblin child why mama is doing that. The gov’t is being assholes sending people away, for nothing. She gets fierce. “I agree, they are being assholes.” 🖤✊🏻

These "hunger games" being played by Israel and the US are so disgusting. The humiliation and terrorizing and murdering of Palestinians via inhumanitarian aid is further evidence of how dehumanized Israel and the US are. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...
