Donald Trump’s lawyers seek to stop judges’ national block on executive order in case that could decide policy’s future.

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life. Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever. Our problem isn't a lack of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

I just got a YouTube ad asking me to vote for a Eurovision contestant, no country mentioned. I looked it up. It’s Israel. They’re running paid ads to win votes while hiding who they are. You can’t whitewash genocide with a song. Especially when the song is trash 🗑️

Here is the grad speech that NYU is now withholding the student's diploma for: "As I search my heart today in addressing you all…the only thing that is appropriate to say in this time and to a group this large is a recognition of the atrocities currently happening in Palestine."

the kid looks fucking terrified, knows the university will probably punitively hold the diploma they've worked three or four years to get, and also knows people have been disappeared recently by fascists for doing way, way less. still says it! just an incredibly fucking brave person

Just grooving while i wait for Astound Broadband to return the $600 they decided they needed more than i did.

Capitalists have siphoned all of the wealth from society (our collective labor), leaving most of the population broke, and are now looking to replace a significant percentage of us with AI. What comes next? Based on their police budgets, they seem to think it's widespread unrest.

"Competent officials need to be willing to tell the president when he’s wrong, but Trump doesn’t want to hear anything beyond praise and flattery. That leaves him surrounding himself with fools, grifters, conspiracy theorists, and whatever you call the spineless sack of gelatin that is Marco Rubio."

His name is Rodney Hinton Jr. Pigs murdered his son and he allegedly murdered one of them in return. The police do not exist to protect you. They exist to bring you to heel in accordance with their master's will. State sponsored violence is somehow the only violence that doesn't count. #ACAB

📌READ: Pro-Palestine students are being abducted and disappeared into for-profit ICE prisons in rural Louisiana — the same blueprint the South used to enforce white supremacy for centuries. t.co/7Q02ntVJr6

UPDATE on @TNHighwayPatrol & ICE raiding/terrorizing NASHVILLE immigrant communities last night (with reported MNPD involvement)— pulling over uber and door dash drivers, detaining pregnant women, etc…

Trumpty-Dumpty is defunding PBS. What he calls "bias" some of us call "facts Trumpty-Dumpty doesn't like."

Congrats everyone — we are at the point where The Onion and real life are indistinguishable from one another. 😳🇺🇸 theonion.com/ice-agents-w...

Preacher Boy wanted you to know the talent was all him, all live. We waiting for the album.

Auchincloss on Fox News: "What I'm seeing is a president who is more interested in the valuation of his memecoin than he is about people's 401ks. What I'm seeing is a president who along with Howard Lutnick is self-dealing on crypto instead of worrying about the strength of the US dollar."

how are we supposed to believe this guy is an expert in friendship when he clearly doesn’t have any friends close enough to tell him that he looks like life coach for sex offenders

A connection 19 years in the making 🥹 Alyssa Thompson assists her sister Gisele Thompson on her first pro goal, AND they become the first sisters in NWSL history to combine for a goal!

Your School House Rock moment...🤔

Rubio publicly criticizing an ally for cracking down on right-wing extremism. And Germany hitting back. We are in a new world

The war is here people, its just one they hope will stay bloodless for them. This proves that no target is safe & they will do anything to win. What are we willing to do to stop them, for survival? Whats your breaking point? What would you trade to stop them? www.aclu.org/press-releas...

Sitting with the data that -- Black people are 3.23x as likely as white people to be killed during a police encounter Black women are 3x more likely to die of a pregnancy or postpartum-related cause than white women. Tripled violence, tripled harms.

You know, with Am*z*n and B&N trying to run sales over Independent Bookstore Day, this seems like a pretty good week to crow about the cool stuff we do here. We're proud of this stuff, so we should tell you about it. So here's a thread...

Bluesky is collegial and interesting, the way Twitter used to be. Bonus: most people can spell.

Now is as good a time to remind everyone that we at Digital Defense Fund released an Abortion Privacy Guide with the top 3 actions that can have the greatest impact on reducing risk, even after an abortion is over. Link to print and fold version in next tweet.

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today. This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

Fox News has resorted to just straight up lying about Abrego Garcia, who has never been convicted or even charged with a crime

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

I'm told this is what winning looks like.

RFK Jr. has directed scientists to explore possible link between autism and midichlorian levels among Jedi candidates.

there is simply no amount of child death that will move RFK to change his mind because he is a predatory narcissist who cares less about health than the gratification of his own ego

AOC: How can anyone possibly make an objective vote on healthcare, energy, or war when their personal wealth is tied up in pharmaceutical, oil and gas, or defense company stock?

Someone in the crowd is in medical distress while nurses are on stage at the fighting oligarchy rally. The nurses rush off stage to give medical aid

Said "no dessert until everyone finishes the meal" and. The preschooler threw up her fist and shouted "up with the workers, down with the boss" AND THEN THE TODDLER THREW UP HER TINY FIST IN SOLIDARITY

"A precedent has been set. Every international student in America today must accept that they may be abducted, detained and deported for attending a protest or expressing a view that upsets the White House or its allies." — #AJOpinion by @somdeepsen.bsky.social ⤵️
