I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

The wealthy have intentionally destroyed class consciousness so that they can exploit the vast majority of people. If we’re going to fight back and ultimately win this class war, it’s time we got familiar with how our politics actually work. jaredyatessexton.substack.com/p/a-thorough...

New in PN: @oliverdarcy.bsky.social on a cowed mainstream press "Whether it’s Meta or Amazon or Bezos, it’s clear that Trump runs the show. That’s incredibly worrying. The whole job of the Fourth Estate is to hold the powerful accountable — not to bend the knee."

they were selling each other t-shirts that said ‘cuomosexual’. it was my final and absolute last straw with liberals

The rumors are true: The proposed SAVE Act, now considered a priority for Republicans in the House, will make it harder, if not practically impossible, for millions of women to vote.

1/ For the people who are asking: “Where are the protests?!” There have been many! Much of them organized by immigrants rights groups and leftists. Here’s a thread of some I have found, or know people who have attended. Feel free to add your own.

Reminder: A 24 page police report details a woman’s horrifying account of being drugged and raped by Pete Hegseth. (Currently, Hegseth is Trump’s nominee to lead the U.S. Department of Defense.) In 2017, a woman said she was the victim of a sexual assault perpetrated by Hegseth at a GOP women’s…

Wild stuff going on in Texas right now. Amid an incredibly contentious Republican fight for Speaker of the House, the Texas GOP has passed a resolution vowing to censure anyone who doesn’t vote for party leaders’ preferred candidate — which will bar any censured lawmaker from running in primaries.

. @kapparov.bsky.social and I did a very detailed deep dive into the Russian agent arrested last month. Here is our investigation! Also we just launched this substack exactly for these type of covert and malign influence operations, so please subscribe

all i'm saying is it would've been nice to have this healthcare policy discussion *before* we gave a trifecta to the party that tried to strip coverage from tens of millions of people last time they were in power

Thanks all for following my work on Bluesky! I've just joined.

I read this post by @mraleosays.bsky.social going into this week of school—starting a novel in one class, poetry in another—and has pushed me (in the best of ways) to center "doing English" as much as I possibly can. This matters a lot. substack.com/home/post/p-...

The founder of “Donetsk People’s Republic”, 🇷🇺 MP Aleksandr Boroday about Minsk Agreements of 2015: - Just like Ukraine, we didn’t intend to fulfil them. They just gave us time to get ready [for a bigger war]. #MinskAgreements #StandWithUkraine #RussiaLies
