This is scary for US citizens! www.facebook.com/share/r/1DHG...

Encouraging words and insights from Planet D! youtu.be/EJJhlGTSdMA?...

Said in 1967. Still relevant. youtube.com/shorts/p3u4I...

Wow. youtube.com/post/UgkxLTy...

The entire National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) team at SAMHSA was terminated today. Do not listen to the platitudes of this administration when they say they care about drug overdose, addiction, mental health, or suicide.

Excellent explainer from @SteveVladeck.Bsky.social on why immigrants, including the men deported under Alien Enemy Act, are entitled to due process.

A lesson in right vs wrong: Using government power to target political enemies is wrong. Standing up for those who are targeted is right. Bowing down is wrong. Refusing to be deterred and stating tall is right. Silence is wrong. Peaceful opposition is right. www.cnn.com/2025/03/30/p...

Longtime farmworker organizer Alfredo “Lelo” Juarez was pulled over while driving his wife to work. ICE agents shattered Juarez’s window and dragged him out of the vehicle for exercising his right to remain silent, his brother said. @nataschaelena.bsky.social reports: labornotes.org/blogs/2025/0...

Why is Trump going after US science? What's the endgame for these attacks? Vance, Rufo, Trump and Republican elites are attacking NIH and manipulating its grants in order to attack American universities. "It's bad, folks." New contributed post at our blog. Please share it w/ your 🧪 colleagues.

Y’all ready to say screw it and do this strike thing yet? @aflcio.org @wgaeast.bsky.social @seiu.org @aftunion.bsky.social @indivisible.org etc.

One of the defining feelings in American life, for decades now, is elites doing plainly criminal shit and nothing at all happening as a result. It is deranging in a way that virtually nothing else is. Media fixates on perceived street lawlessness but shit like this matters much more in my opinion.

THIS is why many local police departments choose not to share some information with ICE. This woman's decision to report her assault to the cops led to her being arrested by ICE and likely deported. The message this sends to people is they shouldn't report crimes. That's bad for our communities.

Whenever people challenge privileged elites and make them explain themselves, that is a Great Horror That Signals The End Times. But, those so-called protectors of free speech will say nothing when it comes to actual censorship based on fear of government retaliation. Because it was always a lie.

Give me it. ❤️

NEW: @motherjones.com reports that one of the men renditioned to El Salvador is Neri Alvarado, who was working in Dallas as a baker. An ICE agent told him they were questioning all men with tattoos. Neri has an AUTISM AWARENESS TATTOO in honor of his 15-year-old brother with autism.

Gulag Barbie brought her curling iron, gold watch, pearl earrings, and Caboodle full of makeup to the foreign prison

“‘The government is treating us like criminals based only on our tattoos, or because we’re Venezuelan, without a proper investigation or a prosecutor offering any evidence.’”

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The US immigration detention system, heavily reliant on for-profit private prison companies, has led to concerns about profit-driven expansion and potential abuses, with over 90% of ICE detainees held in private facilities. youtu.be/Vmk6BwZpr3A

"Russia cannot be trusted." Sir Richard Shirreff, Nato's former deputy supreme commander for Europe, tells @krishgm.bsky.social that Russia will "stage an attack" and then "claim victimhood". Read and watch: www.channel4.com/news/russia-...

Rep. John Larson (D-CT) in today’s Ways and Means Committee hearing. This is what we want! Do you hear us Democrats? No more of your DC decorum. Fight!

Not a drag queen! Pastor and Trump ally accused of child sexual assault. www.texastribune.org/2025/03/12/r...

JUST IN: Texas megachurch pastor and former Trump spiritual advisor Robert Morris has been indicted for molesting a 12-year-old girl.

💯 RFK Jr. approved!

"The [administration's] moves are all steps toward achieving the Project 2025 goals of banning abortion and restricting access to birth control nationwide and, sadly, there’s much more to come on this front. It was all written down before the election."

Habitat for Humanity. For fucks sake.

This whole "bullying Canada" business seems like a movie where a cocky young punk decides to abuse & demean the kindly elderly neighbor...only to discover the old man is some unstoppable war hero badass...
