Whether it’s Joe Biden accepting a presidential salary or Elon Musk restructuring the federal government to benefit his private companies, presidents of both parties have used the office to financially enrich themselves.

#TeslaTakedown protest in North Hollywood, CA got TV coverage from NBC affiliate @eastvalleyindivisibles.com @indivisible.org @ezralevin.bsky.social @leahgreenberg.bsky.social

learn about the Black Panther Party free breakfast program learn about the Zapatista uprising learn about Jane learn about the Kensington Welfare Rights Union learn about STAR learn about Act Up learn about the Battle of Blair Mountain learn about the Spanish Civil War we are not the first

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

This is fascism.

A grim scene this afternoon as Emil Bove faced down lawyers from DOJ’s Public Integrity Section. One said it was “not anything any of us ever expected to see in America.” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Danielle R. Sassoon, Manhattan’s acting U.S. attorney, resigned on Thursday rather than obey a Justice Department order that she drop a corruption case against New York City’s mayor, Eric Adams, that she had championed, according to three people with knowledge of the matter.

First people started saying Tesla was Musk’s biggest vulnerability. Then sporadic protests started popping up. Then people began to systematically organizing against Tesla. Join in. Share with friends. Hit Musk where it hurts the most — his wallet. www.jphilll.com/p/its-time-t...

Tommy Tuberville puts Jesus in his place

Sell your Teslas, dump your stock, join the picket lines. Hurting Tesla is stopping Musk, and stopping Musk will help save lives and our democracy. The stakes couldn't be higher and no one is coming to fix this- not our politicians and not our media. It's up to collective effort.

Top comment on the recent NYT story on DOGE’s young aides www.nytimes.com/shared/comme...

don’t mind me, just casually mentioning again that if you sign up for B&N’s rewards program (it’s free) you can get my new book for 25% off today (promo code is PREORDER25). help me radicalize the next generation! www.barnesandnoble.com/w/fight-to-w...

Around 35% of SpaceX’s revenue comes directly from the federal govt. Less than 1% of NPR’s budget comes from the federal govt.

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

Anti-DOGE rally getting underway now outside the U.S. Department of Labor, where DOGE was reportedly scheduled to have a meeting today. Big turnout from AFGE, one of the federal unions in Trump’s crosshairs.

I just want to take a moment to appreciate all the savvy pundits who argued trump was the less interventionist candidate

Clear-eyed, direct NYT op-ed by @jamellebouie.net using the kind of non-euphemistic language the headlines should embrace:

Yes. More like this please.

The inability of the national media to understand this basic point ABOUT AMERICAN CIVICS is simply wild

Ok man, I’ll tell them

i think we need to reexamine the economic system that allowed one person to accumulate enough wealth to literally purchase the us government

Hi all, We’re still here at OPM. We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building. Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.

Nearly 250,000 people in Berlin showed up to protest fascism and the Musk backed AfD party.

This is what happens when you ask me to help sanewash the Trump tariffs.

I love that a white guy was flying the plane, a white guy was flying the helicopter, and a white guy gutted the FAA last week but somehow the blame is too much diversity.

incredible things are happening on the federal employee subreddit

They want to ban the teaching of the unpleasant facts of American history because people might conclude injustices in the past that contribute to inequalities in the present should be rectified, instead of their belief, which is that some groups of people are inherently superior to others

🚨 BREAKING: OMB has just issued a memo *rescinding* the previous memo freezing all federal financial assistance programs. Full text, per government source:

God bless

BREAKING: Philadelphia workers have won the first Whole Foods union under Amazon with UFCW. Since Amazon bought the chain, workers have lost benefits and felt the squeeze. Now they're fighting back against the multi-trillion dollar giant and hoping this win will be the first of many.

the world they want is one where you're either unemployed or work an almost no wage job, you have almost no political input or self determination and you’re happy about it because you can get a t-shirt off temu for a $1

At a Whole Foods Market in Philadelphia, roughly 300 workers are set to vote on Monday on whether to form the first union in Amazon’s grocery business.

My neighborhood coven gathered to craft today. We made all sorts of lovely things.

Yup, @jamellebouie.net has this exactly right. What these guys are celebrating/pursuing/yearning for is not masculine energy, it's *adolescent* energy. Drinking Red Bull, crushing Call of Duty, refusing to clean your room. It is indescribably pathetic. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/18/o...

Do not open your door for ICE officials. Talk to them through your door. Refuse to open it.

Monday morning we are entering a new chapter in this country's history and we are entering it together, with our friends and principles held close and our eyes wide open.

Under Biden, thousands of workers who experienced wage theft and other abuses have been granted protection from deportation and authorization to work so they can participate in labor investigations.

one unstated implication of this argument is that those of us whose diagnosis of trumpism is that it is tied tightly to gendered and racialized status anxiety are close to the mark.

This country is a hellscape: Imprisoned teenage boys & young men 18 to 24 are being used to battle the wildfires. 95% are Black, Latino, or Filipino; earn between $2.20 & $4 per hour, plus an additional $1 an hour when they’re actively fighting fires

The insanity of being a fire ecologist in the epicenter of a major fire event, bags packed and ready to evacuate, watching active fire from my window, while taking media requests and explaining to the public, for the 100,000th time how climate change is largely responsible for this
