Renowned Palestinian poet, author cancels US tour for fear of abduction - https://www.middleeasteye.net/live-blog/live-blog-update/renowned-palestinian-poet-author-cancels-us-tour-fear-abduction

A few years ago I visited the National Museum of African American History & Culture with my grandparents. When we stepped out of the building my grandmother kept repeating the words “I lived it. I lived it. I lived it.” She’s still here. That history is still in her bones. You can never erase that.

Spotted in Davis Square, Somerville.

This, so much this. People mean well, but the pressure to be well, or at least on the improve, is huge.

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

Omg I want to share good news about my book but but but but the world is kind of ending so I’m conflicted

we really need to stop saying “arrested” by ICE. the word you’re looking for is “kidnapped”.

Burkina Faso's brilliant leader, Ibrahim Traore: “If you want a break with imperialist forces, you must denounce the colonial defense agreements." /1

Scoop from @jewishcurrents.bsky.social: The ADL is dropping its anti-bias training, and also "deleted lesson plans on topics such as transgender identity, white privilege, school integration, and the impact of boarding schools on Native Americans." Very clear the org is going hard right.

Carney: "The old relationship we had with the United States based on deepening integration of our economies and tight security and military cooperation is over."

I showed my wife, a historian, the Kristi Noem video. She said “holy shit!” It’s a lot. A brief thread on bodies. It begins in the alt text below… 1/

Reminder: the First Amendment protects everyone who resides in our country. It doesn't matter if you have a green card or a visa or if you're undocumented. The Supreme Court has repeatedly affirmed that any person residing in the United States, regardless of status, is entitled to 1A protections.

GOP Rep. Bacon: "We made a mistake. We passed legislation that gave the president some temporary tariff authorities. I think we should look back and maybe restore the power back from Congress and take away the authorizations."

We’re going to die

The Pod Save bros were already fairly critical of the Biden administration's policy regime on Palestine, so it's more of an already existing trend merely continuing, but it is noteworthy to me that some prominent liberals are finally connecting the dots here.

Closing rural post offices will do the same thing that closing rural schools has done: Empty out rural towns. Why? To sell off farmland for rock bottom prices to the oligarchs. Water and mineral rights and CAFOs polluting with impunity. It’s been the plan for decades.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but fascism often begins with the slow erosion of civil liberties and the rise of authoritarianism under the guise of ‘security measures’.

They are arresting people on the streets, terminating their visas, and disappearing them for writing things they disagree with. This is where we are. Two months in. Right now. If you think they won’t begin coming after citizens soon, you are mistaken.

Are you this old? 👀

HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. intends to reduce the Health and Human Services workforce by more than 20%, or roughly 10,000 workers. www.politico.com/news/2025/03...

This. This right here

A reminder that all those men in that El Salvadorian death camp had their hair cut, which for any person of Indigenous background rather connected or not, is a sign of severing their spirit. It’s not just inhumane. It’s evil. True evil.

Sup Dude

No matter your station in life, there is astoundingly little separating you from those men in that cage behind Kristi Noem. No charges, no attorneys, no hearings, no trial. Just conjecture and brute force could be enough to justify completely dehumanizing you, too.

Israel is running this country and hardly anybody mentions it when reporting on these arrests. This is an Israeli wish list of arrests and U.S. agents are fulfilling it

My dear friends, thank God my account has been restored after providing identity verification.✅️ A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped with this & to those who continued sharing my campaign despite my absence.❤️ You are truly amazing & your support means the world to me!🌸

BREAKING: The people with extraordinary sums of potentially taxable wealth have explained there is simply no alternative to brutal benefits cuts x

🚨🚨🚨 ALERT: community organizer and @indivisibleskagit.org member Lelo Juarez was detained and is being held by ICE. We join Indivisibles across Washington, immigrant activists, and WA electeds in demanding his immediate release:

re: the Noem video it’s disgusting & completely on brand for humans to enjoy the suffering of ppl they deem less than human public executions were entertainment around the world for centuries upon centuries banning cruel & unusual punishment is a modern concept in the scope of human history

Either you find this disgusting, or you are disgusting. There is no in between.

A grieving child bids a tearful farewell to her father, killed by the Israelis in Gaza.

This is hilarious. #Greenland

“Leftists being more polite and less mean would win over well adjusted liberals“ is such a tell that all liberals value is their own comfort

Thank you so much for your support over the past few months. I couldn't do this work without you. If you'd like to contribute, you can do so here: buymeacoffee.com/josepgodedf

Every time a writer mentions to me that they use ChatGPT or an equivalent in their writing “just for this one little thing”, the light inside me dies just a little bit more…
