Holy shit: the King County Housing Authority is "sharing Flock license plate reader data with law enforcement agencies [including] the Texas authorities’ May search for the woman who had an abortion. The audit also suggests the data has been used to assist ICE & DHS." WTH, @cmtmosqueda.bsky.social?

“A copper-sulfide mine from Talon Metals has been planned […] near Mille Lacs tribal land where lakes and rivers have been riced for generations. […] Most of the nickel from this mine would be used to supply electric vehicle manufacturers such as Tesla, who have already signed agreements with Talon”

🚨Freedom Flotilla Official Update🚨 It's time for our governments to do their jobs and sanction Israel whose illegal attack on 'Madleen' while sailing in international waters is a small extension of their war crimes in Gaza. Governments, institutions, media, and corporations...2/

In the early morning hours, Donald J. Trump moved to activate the California National Guard to quell protests and demonstrations held in solidarity against the actions taken by his administration. While he has made his intentions clear, there can be only one acceptable response: RESIST!

Trump can’t stand to be humiliated. This is what's driving his dictatorial moves. But he will overreach. He already has. And this overreach will ultimately be his undoing. As long as we keep our heads — and engage in peaceful civil disobedience. Be strong. Be safe.

Trump wants to deliberately escalate tensions. Don’t fall into his trap. Please do not give him what he wants. We cannot be silent in the face of Trump’s dictatorial moves. But we must not succumb to violence. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/a-time-for-non-violent-civil-disobedience

Deploying the military on U.S. soil as law enforcement against Americans was on page 555 of Project 2025. So don’t say “I didn’t vote for this,” because you did. This isn’t a response. This was always their plan.

Truth: AIPAC MAGA Senators get paid to support the AIPAC agenda. Also Truth: AIPAC Dem Senators get paid to support the AIPAC agenda. Unspoken Truth: They’re on the same team. Ugly Truth: They won’t save us. Resounding Truth: WE HAVE TO. Better sooner than later.

Dominican man thrown to the ground and arrested outside immigration courtroom just now, an activist, who is a US citizen was also taken away in the chaotic scene. A lawyer later tried to ask the remaining agents where the activist was taken. "you just arrested a US citizen which is illegal."

If Musk & his pals are so concerned about increasing the national debt in Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, why don’t they cut the $664 billion in tax breaks for the 1%; the $420 billion in tax breaks for large profitable corporations; & the $150 billion in increased military spending?

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

Republicans are voting tonight at 10PM—in the dead of night—on their Big Bad Billionaire Bill: $1.1 trillion in tax cuts for the rich paid for by Medicaid cuts and hungry children. They hope you won’t notice. But we will call out Republican’s betrayal of America’s families.
