It’s almost impossible to watch most of the TV coverage of the big awful bill, which treats it like the usual Congressional horse trading rather than an entire party that is fine with destroying America to please Donald Trump in his pursuit of total power.

A general strike unites workers across sectors to shut down business as usual, forcing real change from the ground up. When 3.5% of the population mobilizes, history shows it's enough to topple unjust systems. Your labor is power. Time to withhold it. #3E #GSUS generalstrikeus.com

They are trying to wear us down. At lightning speed, they’ve reshaped law to serve power, not people. Each decision lands like a blow. It is emotionally and intellectually draining. But we are not without compass. These words below aren’t relics, they are a reminder. We have a lot of work to do.

A hacker working for the Sinaloa cartel used FBI phone records and Mexico City’s surveillance network to track an FBI attache, leading to the exposure and murder of informants. The breach exposes glaring failures in FBI security hygiene and its protection of sources.

This sweeping mandate grants DOJ authority to strip citizenship from anyone they choose, under vaguely defined thresholds. There is discretionary power under Category 10: “Any other cases the Division deems sufficiently important.” it's an attack on dissent - a blueprint for legal authoritarianism.

Here’s the latest and it’s hard to believe. In order to secure the last GOP votes, Republicans are going to exempt from the nutrition cuts states with the HIGHEST levels of errors in their food stamp program. So the states that waste the MOST money get no cuts. Up is down.

Just so we’re all on the same page: the “sniper” in Idaho who attacked firefighters and police is the son of a MAGA-supporting, far-right extremist. I haven’t seen any executive orders calling for the deportation of white terrorists—have you?

Right now in Maryland, there's a mom whose son relies on lifesaving chemotherapy treatments. She told me that if he loses access to his health insurance, it would be a "death sentence." If this bill passes, people will die. Keep calling. Keep fighting. We must stop this bill.

It’s past midnight and Republicans still don’t even know what the final version of their Big Ugly bill will look like. Kicking millions off health care, blowing up the national debt by trillions, and devastating generational economic harms—all being written into law on the fly.

Our intelligence confirms this - we have intercepts of high level Iranian officials who are surprised that damage at the nuclear facilities wasn’t worse. Trump is going to refuse to admit the truth, which increases the chances that Iran is able to reconstitute their program.

Hot tip: When you’re out protesting disable biometrics on your device. If you’re detained/arrested they can’t force you to divulge your password, but can hold the device to your face to unlock. Have @iceblock.app installed. If you have the means, get an iPhone XR with only that installed. #resist
