NEW: Nike says most of the 1.1M people making its products earn 1.9X their local minimum wage. We obtained a payroll ledger for a Cambodian factory that supplied Nike for two years. 1% of the workforce earned that much. Team effort with @sbmaneyphoto.bsky.social. www.propublica.org/article/nike...

Goodnight, friends. 💚 We’re off to bed. When historians look back on this time period what will they call it? 🤔 The Great Regression? The Obscene Epoch? The Age of Incompetence?

"If the government can disappear any people it wishes, dump them in a Salvadoran dungeon and prevent any court in this country from providing relief, we all should be very, very afraid."

A play in two acts.

Favorite sign I saw at San Francisco hands off protest

Here's how you end a Hands Off! demonstration, Santa Barbara style. Thanks to the Society of Fearless Grandmothers, who organized the human alphabet and took the drone shots! #indivisible #handsoff

Had a great turnout in River Falls, WI! We had 499-500 people at our Hands Off rally. Pretty darn good for a red county! We are going to be doing this every other week. @maddow.msnbc.com

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...
