It’s 2AM on a Sunday and I’m heading to the Capitol to FORCE a full reading of the Republicans’ 940-page bill. This bill will rip health care coverage away from 16 million people and cut food assistance. It’s sick. And we will not stand for it.

Here’s an image from last night of NGC 6888, the Crescent Nebula. It is a cloud of gas given off by the bright star at center, a Wolf–Rayet star which will someday explode as a supernova. 🔭

I wish more white people in organizing spaces understood that their racism jumps out easily and it’s very identifiable for the people of color around them No one is confused by your behavior and everyone is being held back by how slow you are to recognize it for what it is

If you or someone you know has been saying people are overreacting, show them what Justice Jackson said. Or this, from Justice Sotomayor: "No right is safe in the new legal regime the Court creates."

Posted this last night. Worth posting again. It is one thing to read and hear about people being kidnapped, far different to actually see it. These images must be seen, must be shared. The world needs to know how real and rampant it is now in America.

Federal agents used explosives to enter a U.S. citizen’s home and entered — guns drawn — on a baby, a 6-year-old, and their mother. She believes it’s because her boyfriend attended an ICE protest where he accidentally hit a cop car (and was released by cops). www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/h...

Just running out of words for any of this. Traumatizing children, hurting families, putting children in actual physical danger. For absolutely no reason. There is no justification for this.

ICE is now changing tactics and arresting people who have been granted asylum hearings. This is both a violation of US & international law that demands immediate attention from all New York elected officials & underscores the urgent need for legal service providers to be at all of these cases.

Burnett: Do you like capitalism? Mamdani: No, I have many critiques of capitalism. Yes! For too long it has been taboo to discuss legitimate critiques of capitalism in mainstream US media. This has shut down any chance of implementing real solutions to social crises. A new day is coming.

When Republican voters surprise pundits, there's always a spate of opinion pieces arguing that we must take the time to understand the wants and desires of said voters. Apparently, when Democratic voters do it, the response is to say they're unserious people who need to grow up. Interesting.

It’s very important for people to be clear on this point: America is no longer a democracy. It is no longer a democracy that is in backslide. It is a fascist state and we will never vote out fascism alone. Rule of law will not stop fascism. It is being redesigned as we are seeing to empower fascism.

Whenever I see Dems claim they are out of power, there’s nothing they can do, I think of Brad Lander and how he escorted people to court while being comptroller and running for mayor. Do something or get the f out of the way so there can be more Brad Landers.

This is part of what feels so good tonight. Brad Lander and most of the other mayoral candidates did what was necessary, rather than sabotaging the leftist candidate. Their voters largely seem to have done so, too. That's the way forward, man. United popular front, together.

THEY F*CKING TOOK THE ICE CREAM MAN! The photo says it all. Masked ICE goons grabbed Enrique Lozano in front of a Culver City, CA church. A Community Coalition helped the family identify the abandoned cart, locate his belongings. For 20 years, loved in the community. "Hardened criminals" - my ass.

A pregnant woman lost her baby after ICE refused to give her prenatal care. She begged for help and was denied. She was fed food full of cockroaches. She was forced to sleep on the floor. This is absolutely disgusting and we should all be outraged. nashvillebanner.com/2025/05/27/i...

This doesn't even make any sense! IF they even abide by the ceasefire, all we functionally do is go back to where we were before Israel bombed Iran, except everyone's more pissed off, more people are dead, and we have no clue where Iran moved their materials? Or am I missing something?

It's impressive how SCOTUS managed to eviscerate the rule of law on two independent levels: 1) it rewards lawless disregard of court orders; and 2) makes Due Process optional. And, they did so without even explaining their ruling.

This is a horrifying ruling that shows a disdain for basic human rights principles — made all the more unconscionable by the fact that the Republican appointees did so with no reasoning and on the shadow docket.
