Tina Kotek wants people who represent Klamath Falls and Coos Bay to vote on whether to overrule the voters of Multnomah County who chose to collect a tax on wealthy people to fund preschool for all. ✅ doing favors for wealthy donors ✅ undermining local democracy ✅ using faulty data

Well, thank goodness @tinakotek.bsky.social is prioritizing the feelings of the wealthiest Oregonians 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 Kotek Says Preschool for All Tax Imperiling Oregon Tax Base share.google/bgNUM1XdICjG...

I love Bernard, but I don't love this. Independent voters are looking for whoever is offering them the best deal at the time. There's no coherent strategy, no common values, and no solidarity. I'd much rather see us building a strong and principled Labor party to fight for the working class.

Slightly baffled by the absolute disdain with which some (non MAGA) types are treating today’s boycott. This moment is an opportunity. Why waste it because you were here first? Why the insistence that anything short of revolution by Monday is failure? What happened to Always Be Organizing?

Listening to this audiobook right now and it’s a horrifying eye opener about the misogyny, abuse, and violence baked into the so called Christian communities who are increasingly controlling this country. Not an easy read, but a very important one. Highly recommended.

"It’s time to take back our country. Not only from this authoritarian nightmare, but also from the collaborators too insipid and weak and chickenshit — too skinless and boneless — to stand up for us."

Just thinking about how Multnomah County Library lets us print up to 100 (black and white) copies a day. Hmm.....

Where are all the Dem consultants who supposedly do "comms" work at? Where's the website put together with succinct talking points, one pagers, posters that folks can easily download, print and pass out in their communities? Why aren't they doing this work PRO-BONO?

Canceling subscriptions and services due to the likelihood of economic meltdown or unwillingness to support authoritarianism? I know I am. Make sure you let these companies know why you are canceling and who’s to blame.

Biden: - let's end cancer Trump - let's _double_ cancer

😳😬🤣 I'm so happy for him!!!!

I am so fucking down for this.

Shabbat shalom, comrades. Whether it's your custom or not, I highly recommend regular breaks to connect with loved ones, especially after horrific, traumatic weeks like this one. We deserve it.

NEW: An internal email obtained by WIRED from a threat intelligence team monitoring US Treasury systems advised labeling DOGE operatives an "insider threat," adding that it recommended suspending their access "immediately." | www.wired.com/story/treasu...

Well isn't this just 27 layers of bullshit?? Looks like Adams is willing to break the law and endanger both migrants and city workers in exchange for a little help from Trump with his federal corruption indictment. These people are all so vile.

I needed a little boost this morning. This felt good.

It's not a demolition site it's a mass grave. It's not a demolition site it's a crime scene. It's not a demolition site its a homeland. It's not a demolition site it's Palestine. It's not a demolition site it's a genocide.

Only US oligarchs are allowed to steal our data, dammit! www.independent.co.uk/tech/deepsee...
