The fascists control every single social media app except this one. They will do everything they can to destroy this place because freedom scares them. This is why they sent JD Vance first. Everywhere he touches dies.

Senator Padilla makes an excellent point: if the FBI and Secret Service were willing to physically remove a Senator they had just escorted into the room, force him down on the floor and cuff him because he tried to ask a question What do you think they & ICE do to regular people?

While we wait for the Supreme Court to rule in a critical redistricting case from Louisiana, this is what the GOP is up to in Texas and Ohio. Remember the GOP's plan is to make it harder for you to vote and easier for them to cheat.

The Watergate break-in (which happened 53 years ago this week) began the modern era of “whatever-it-takes-to-win” politics — blatant disregard of any and all norms and laws that interfered with gaining or keeping power. Trump is the logical and inevitable consequence. https://bit.ly/3QV2m4s

Terry Moran being suspended by ABC News is ironic given Moran went out of his way to not embarrass Trump over the president’s delusion about the doctored MS13 photo, repeatedly saying ‘let’s agree to disagree’ and ‘let’s move on’ but they still got him suspended. You can’t appease these people ever.

Calling what corporate media does "News" is like saying a photo of a bird on a branch is a documentary on flight. They only tell half of the story, at best. They leave out the good that people create & share each day to overcome monumental challenges, most of which is created by the greedy few!

All we asked for was healthcare, clean air, feed hungry children and the right to love who we choose. What we get in return is tax cuts for the rich, military parades and soldiers in the streets.

This administration needs to stop targeting international reporters, they’re the ones helping spread the truth. In multiple videos, officers are seen aiming directly at them, fully aware they’re members of the press. These so-called “non-lethal” rounds can absolutely be lethal.

This isn't really my beat but I honestly do wonder about this, about the lack of coalitions and open building of models given all the expertise at universities, but then I consider the sociocultural divides between expertises and I don't wonder so much. Still I feel there is something big here

Independent journalism is when you can write what Terry Moran wrote without getting in trouble. Corporate journalism is when you can’t. It’s why many left the latter for the former. I understand the rationale behind corp journalism rules, I’m just glad they don’t apply to me

"In our federal system, the National Gov. possesses only limited powers; the States and the people retain the remainder. The States have broad authority to enact legislation for the public good—what we have often called a 'police power.' The Fed. Gov., by contrast, has no such authority."-SCOTUS '14
