And as @adambonica.bsky.social shows, this particular form of capital explains why increases in wealth are concentrated among the very wealthiest

MAGA-washing: There’s a story rippling around about a flood of “American” applicants for jobs following a major ICE raid at a Nebraska meat packing. It was Glen Valley and applicants sound similar to the detained workers. Corn fed locals? Sure-if you mean masa harina. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

My relatives in East L.A. — born in the U.S.A. — are afraid to go outside because masked men with guns are randomly snatching people off the street. This is a government terrorism campaign against its own people.

Albuquerque temps relative to baseline average from 1961-2010.

What better way to observe the end of slavery than a rich old white man yelling to work harder.

In case the waging of war on LGBTQ+ community wasn’t clear. They want the community silenced, erased, abandoned, “converted,” and don’t mind dead.

Elmo’s cars make very effective child removal systems and his spaceships are excellent particle dispersion devices. Just absolutely top notch work.

A key reason the GOP Congress abdicated it's Article I powers to Trump is it allows them to evade accountability for decisions they don't want to make/be seen making MCs agonize over how one vote might tank their re-election. Trump is unaccountable--he can't run again and SCOTUS declared him king

New Mexico continues pushing back the timeline on humans in the Americas.

🚨 There’s a lot of horrific news out of Washington right now—but you might have missed this: Senate Republicans just introduced a plan to sell off 120 million acres of our public lands. Let me break down what’s in the bill and why it’s a full-scale land grab. 🧵

shoutout to everyone out there, especially at the Times, who spent years “just asking questions” and pretending to care about women’s sports blood is on your hands trans rights are human rights and you should have remembered that instead of signing onto a genocidal project

New Mexico continues to welcome those fleeing from anti-LGBTQ legislation. This should not be a thing in twenty-twenty-five, but “Bienvenidos, friends, we got you.”

We're going to see a spike in teen suicide rates in these states...because apparently the Roberts Court doesn't have enough blood on its hands.

Hmmm... seems bad that Senate Dems are pretending not to know anything about this specific provision in the bill when asked by @ericmgarcia.bsky.social... Seems like coordinated faux ignorance.

“Almost all the casualties in Gaza in recent days have been linked to the delivery of aid rather than Israeli strikes on Hamas targets.”

The biggest change in reproductive rights in Britain in half a century has just passed the Commons. MPs have voted 379-137 to decriminalise abortion, preventing women from being prosecuted for terminating a pregnancy after 24 weeks.

Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

GO GET YOUR FUCKING PASSPORTS

Jesus Fracking Christ.

I see the calendar crunch I have been talking about is causing issues.... GEAR UP by Department of Education just initiated another funding round announced on the 11th and due the 26th. That does not comply with 2 CFR 200.204 requirement of 30 days availibilty unless they have exigent circumstances.

Shaping up to be a good week for “no you can’t do that with obligated grants!” Hopefully we also get to, “no you can’t do that with appropriated funds for grants” before the FY clock runs out on hundreds of billions being slow captured by the administration.

NEW: GAO has ruled Trump illegally impounded funds. “IMLS ceased performing agency functions and withheld from obligation and expenditure funds that Congress appropriated for such functions. … GAO concludes that IMLS has violated the ICA by withholding funds from obligation and expenditure.“

Weird that the Praetorian Guard leader who executed a sequenced assassination campaign that had been planned for months decided to do it the morning of Trump's giant military parade and No Kings protests. Almost like he felt the Emporer, I mean Trump, wants blood and intimidation of electeds.

ABQ: The foothills and huge chucks of the Sandias will be FOR SALE if the GOP pushes the Billionaire BS Bill through.
