Dear journalists. When the US President is openly accused of paedophilia the story is either impeachment or defamation. If not, the story is how words have lost all meaning, truth has lost all value, and journalists are now completely desensitised to lying and corruption.

Help this babe if you have a little extra. Repost if you don’t. We get it done together.

I’m going to need your help on this. This affects #AllOfUs. Forest Service R&D touches every community. Our homes. Our clean air. Our clean water. Our green canopy. Our verdant forestland. I expect @nffe-fsc.bsky.social to be on it, fighting for union brothers & sisters in R&D. Stay tuned ✊

This is devastating. Sweeps should be obviously immoral, but many people think of camp sites as visual blights, inconveniences, or places that make them uncomfortable. This is what your comfort costs.

A beloved member of my organizing community was taken by ICE today during an immigration check-in. Please sign this petition demanding her release.

🤬🤬🤬

All but declared…all that’s missing is suspension of the constitution, habeas corpus and the US military. But we are close to martial law in this moment and it’s getting hard to tell the difference.

Let’s talk for a moment about some of the more subtle ways that the press acts as a mouthpiece for law enforcement. Actor Jonathan Joss was shot to death on Sunday. I don’t know what happened; I wasn’t there. But his husband said a homophobic neighbor shot him as part of an explicit hate crime. /1

Bumping this up again in light of most of these people having their accounts deleted in the last few days. The situation on the ground in Gaza is horrific and they are relying on our direct donations to survive, due to the aid blockade. 👇👇👇

PRO PUBLICA: Of the 238 men sent to an El Salvador mega prison, only 6 had prior violent crime convictions. 0 were on the gang member list. 130 had no criminal history. 32 had minor offenses. All 238 thought they were being sent back to Venezuela. www.instagram.com/p/DKcjM7FPhz...

“Dr. al-Farra said that most of the victims were children aged between 10 and 13, many with gunshot wounds to the head or chest.” The @nytimes.com edited out this quote from its reporting on the mass killing of people at a food aid distribution site in Gaza—here’s the original: archive.ph/oeRCf

Happy World Bicycle Day.

A former “friend” told me he cared for me & wanted me to have everything I needed… but that it was time I realize I’m a net negative in society. He referenced my “free surgeries”, countless ER trips & how the system was artificially extending my life. 🧵

“This is very much connected to the rise of authoritarianism that we’ve seen across the country,” said the executive director of the Ballot Initiative Strategy Center. “They can’t win fairly, so they’re trying to rewrite the rules to get their way.”

Jonathan Joss was MURDERED. Words matter here. He was MURDERED. it was a HATE CRIME because he is a gay Indigenous man. Say those words. Do not dance around it. He wasn't "killed in a shooting." He was murdered in a hate crime.

There seem to be a lot of people who think the best way to save our democracy is to throw our support behind a party whose leadership consistently shows they’re not only not capable of responding to the crisis we’re in, but that they’re not even convinced there’s a real crisis. I disagree.

Trump is trying to sell his domestic policy bill with lies. Let’s break them down. Trump said, “We’re not doing any cutting of anything meaningful. The only thing we’re cutting is waste, fraud and abuse.” False.

This man, who has human rights lawyer in his Twitter biog!, is hoping that Israel attacks the flotilla & hurts (kills?) my Zeteo colleague, & legendary activist, Greta Thunberg. To call this tweet disgusting & violent would be an understatement. But they keep telling on themselves:
