Just watched the Home Counties private schoolboy Nigel Farage telling northern voters how he understands steelworkers because he used to work in the “metals business” himself. He was, ahem, a commodities trader at the London Metal Exchange in the City.

Did you know that Republicans want to cut funding for public schools so they can give billionaires a bigger tax break? It's true! They're prioritizing the wealthy over our children's education. Fuck this Billionaire Tax Bailout

If two presidents colluding on TV to resurrect and profit from kidnapping and slavery in the middle of Passover isn't antisemitic I don't know what is. After a Pesach arson. We are in hell.

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States

AOC: Donald Trump is a criminal. He was found guilty of 34 felony counts of fraud, found liable for sexual abuse. If he wants to find the rapists and criminals in this country, he should look in the mirror

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.” This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent. He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

Senator Chris Van Hollen has requested an urgent meeting with President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador to address the situation involving Abrego Garcia, a Maryland man who was “mistakenly”deported from the United States to a prison in El Salvador.

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador president’s statements today, we’re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

Up ’til now, the Sounders FC Reserves’ opponents in the US Open Cup have been amateur (Washington Athletic Club) or lower division professional teams (Spokane Velocity). Oakland Roots are in the top division of USL… (1of6)

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.

Sounders FC Reserves and the Sounders FC are leading double lives, with MLS deciding that our youngers have to do the heavy lifting in the oldest and most prestigious domestic football tournament in America… (1of2)

20,000 in ruby red Utah on their feet, in community, and ready to organize for a better world. A better world is possible.

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

@markwarner.bsky.social‬ I would bloody well hope so. I doubt we can rely on you for consistent anti-corpo anti-genocide voting though. I hope you prove me wrong. But I doubt you will.

@rbreich.bsky.social‬ and yet it won’t happen, because they all enrich themselves by breaking the rules repeatedly with zero accountability.

Sounders FC travel to Planet Texas, land of amazing barbecue and shitty politics. Let’s see if the match at Hunt Way can provide us an opportunity to turn the corner and leave some poor results in our rear-view mirror… (1of2)

If you want to win a trade war, you gotta have something to trade that other side wants. And we're in a trade war with the very people who make all the things WE want. You're not going to win that.

An innocent man, picked up by “mistake,” must not be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. Mr. President. Obey the courts. Obey our Constitution. Bring him home immediately.

My family got these payments when my dad died at 34 years old after serving in the Navy for a decade from what he had paid in. I was five. Jeanine is an incurious ignoramus. Thanks @jessicatarlov.bsky.social for correcting her, which is God’s work.

i can’t get over how big of a dumbass this guy is

yeah man, please make my 85 year old great aunt prove her citizenship to vote in rural georgia, this definitely isn’t reminiscent of anything in the american past

Jeanine: We found out there are people who are between the ages of one and four who are getting social security Jessica: That's the benefit for kids whose parents are dead.

Autism didn’t make them do it. Mental illness didn’t, either. This personal piece from The Big Picture cuts through the excuses and names the real issue: some people are just hateful, and we need to stop giving them cover.
