Julio was profiled because of a benign tattoo, shaven, shamed, and paraded as a criminal so that two national leaders could boast. Julio's second daughter was born in the U.S. while he was in detention in the U.S.; here he is meeting her through video call. theimmigrationlab.org/blog/f/disap...

Indivisible is hosting a virtual training "Resistance for Newbies" *today* Saturday, March 22 at 3:00 PM Pacific time. Talking about how & where to plug in. Spread the word - let's get to 3.5% and take this shit down. www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

While the orange fascist tries to smash transit, walking and bike projects with his tiny hands, states unite to fight back. www.ajc.com/news/nation-...

French researcher, going to a conference in Houston, was forbidden entry to US; his work and personal electronics were both confiscated. Why? Because a โ€œrandom searchโ€ of his cell phone revealed a negative personal opinion on Trump and the Trump administration. www.lemonde.fr/internationa...

We just need 3.5% of us to stand up and calmly, firmly say hell no. We can do this! www.bbc.com/future/artic...

Time to host an art party maydaymovementusa.org/call-for-art/

Tonight, hours after the Paul Weiss news broke, an associate at Skadden Arps sent a firm-wide email: "Please consider this email my two week notice, revocable if the firm comes up with a satisfactory response to the current moment...We do not have time. It is now or it is never..."

This is how to do it. www.democracynow.org/2025/3/14/jv...

Let's instigate festivals of resistance every day. Tiny ones, spontaneous, down at the mailbox bumping into a neighbor; giant ones, organized, in streets and parks. Making art, music, fun, dance, food. Dropping paper hearts from the roof. Singing down tyranny with full-throated unity.

โšก๏ธFIGHT THE OLIGARCHY RALLY โšก๏ธ STARTING TOMORROW. Nevada. Arizona. Colorado. You, me, and Bernie. Dem and GOP districts. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’™ See you there ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฝ๐ŸŒž

Thank you๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ’™. Senator Bernie Sanders and Congresswoman AOC will be taking their Fighting Oligarchy tour to the western United States next week, hosting town hall meetings in Nevada, Arizona, & Colorado to engage with working people dissatisfied with the current political landscape in Washington,D.C.

These are the senators who collaborated with the GOP. Schumer Fetterman Cortez Masto Durbin King Shaheen Gillibrand Schatz Hassan Peters Donโ€™t let them forget it. No peace for them.

Rebecca Solnit is such a fresh and reassuring voice right now! โค๏ธ the.ink/p/the-stupid...

This is very well done. And very very important.

Tesla stock is plummeting. Nonviolent protests and boycotts are effective. โค๏ธ Jeff Tiedrich's spot on substack entry title today: "the Space Nazi is having a Big Sad. boo fucking hoo." Meanwhile, the orange human fart weirdly thinks he's helping Musk's branding problem. apnews.com/article/tesl...

A โ€œwe hate him tooโ€ sign was recently spotted at the San Francisco Tesla dealership which was likely placed by an employee. Love it.

Since Jesse Waters decided to do a hit piece on Jasmine Crockett, I thought I'd give you an opportunity to hear who she is in a discussion with Brian Taylor Cohen. I wish we had more members of Congress with her resume & who care about their constituents as much as she does. youtu.be/SNXc7soA1aw?...

DOE portal for reporting teachers who discuss our racist history or generally promote democracy: enddei.ed.gov I just submitted a comment. NB: If you use words like "deeply racist history" or "fuck off back to the 18th century," your comment may be instantly blocked.

Yes Jasmine!! ๐Ÿ‘
