I've said for years that anti-Blackness, racism and white supremacy should be considered as misinformation / disinformation. To study the history of race and journalism is to see that White supremacy was an effective disinformation campaign. And through that, we got Jim Crow, a fascist system.

Here is the oath all executive branch employees take. It is to support and defend the Constitution, not to “implement the president’s agenda.” If the two purposes diverge, the Constitution prevails.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

I’m not remotely religious, but I have studied religions, especially Christianity, extensively. It’s refreshing to see someone who claims to be Christian who actually understands the Gospels and the Beatitudes. Rare these days. substack.com/@krassenstei...

I just told my friend who was sobbing in my office that we would protect her and family any way we can. We’re going to an @indivisible.org meeting on Saturday & will figure out how we can protect immigrants & naturalized citizens. Her kids are terrified that their parents will be taken away.

A lot of folks didn’t learn this lesson during Trump’s first term, apparently: Focus on what he does, not what he says. He’s going to say a lot of things, but those things are meant to distract you from what he’s doing.

In 1850, the California government banned the controlled burning that Indigenous people had been doing for centuries. The practice controlled the forest density, scaled down undergrowth, and promoted fire-resistant species. It reduced the severity, mileage, and overall number of forest fires. 1/5

2025 will be what you decide it will be. There will things you can fix. Focus on them. And the things you have no control over? Let that 💩 go. When they say don’t obey in advance it means don’t decide today that the whole of the coming year or forever will be hard. Lecture over. 💜

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: The message I’m hearing from people across Canada is this: they’re not afraid of you. They know you’re a convicted felon. They know that the people you’re bringing in to run your, let’s call it an “organization” rather than a government, are grifters, thieves, and thugs.
