The Senate's version of Trump's big, ugly bill enacts even stricter Medicaid work requirements. Make no mistake: Medicaid work requirements don't put people to work. They kick people off their health coverage — all to fund tax cuts for the rich. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzMq...

BREAKING: A federal judge ruled all transgender and intersex people can obtain passports that align with their gender identity while the case against President Trump's executive order proceeds. While this is good news, we will continue fighting until this executive order is blocked permanently.

I started volunteering as an immigration court watcher after reading an article about Brad Lander doing it. So much respect to him and all the folks standing up to bear witness and get in the way.

Donald Trump's "big, beautiful bill" doesn't give working families "crumbs." It’s even worse. It rips away health care from them pay for tax giveaways for billionaires and billionaire corporations.

People will tell you that they view property destruction as equivalent to violence against a person, but that's not true. They think property destruction is worse

When I tell you Los Angeles is an occupied city/county, this is what I mean… Yesterday, ICE agents showed up to a regular Saturday swap meet with armed Marines and a military helicopter overhead, like it’s a fucking war zone.

Five years ago yesterday, upwards of 20,000 protestors came out to the Brookln Musuem for Black Trans Lives. One of my proudest achievements as an organizer was working on this mobilization (which we pulled off in less than a week!)

The great @rasjbaraka.bsky.social, mayor of Newark, speaks at the Newark #NoKings rally in the rain. This is the man who was arrested by ICE at the Delaney Hall detention facility. He spoke about the need for ALL of us to stand up for ALL of us.

I was thinking this morning about small-town No Kings protests. In April, I door knocked for the WI Supreme Court race in a rural area. Most of the people I talked to thought they were the only non-Trumper in their neighborhood, and many were wrong. I hope some of them found that out yesterday.

Before the cops in LA started escalating things for no reason it was funny how my main takeaway was how much people were looking out for each other in really helpful ways. I’ve never seen so many people with carts giving away free water, sunscreen, snacks, and masks to total strangers.

In the former place, I posted one of my favorite Robert Hayden poems every Father’s Day. I’ll start it again here. For those with hard-working Dads from a certain era, when words were few and when the chasm between fathers and children seemed endless. #HappyFathersDay
