Big Pharma wants a blank check. They’re hiking drug prices and trying to gut the negotiating power that keeps costs down for workers and families. We can’t let them get away with it. Read more about it here: bit.ly/4gu5A86

Hey #Booksky if you’re in the US and looking to step away from the zon for physical books can I highly recommend Thrift Books? They donate and partner with non-profits to support school libraries in underserved areas, and prison libraries. Plus, the book prices are very good www.thriftbooks.com

The republicans are using DEI as a distraction from their gross incompetence and incalculable cruelty. The media and many in the public still fall for the tactic because they refuse to accept that this administration and the GOP are segregationists. They don’t want a diverse America and it shows.

Trump targeting people with disabilities is dishonest and unseemly. There’s no evidence that had anything to do with Wednesday’s plane crash, and the law requires that any person with a disability must be qualified for the specific task and “able to perform the essential functions of the job."

The government has no right to decide what name or nickname your child goes by in class. The government has no right to pick out what clothes your child wears to school. This is not just an attack on trans children. It's an attack on personal choice. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/30/u...

RFK Jr. asked to see “data” or “science” showing vaccines are safe, but when Senator Bill Cassidy, a Louisiana Republican and physician, “pulled out and read aloud definitive scientific conclusions that vaccines don’t cause autism,” he dismissed it.

It’s time for some new institutions. The existing ones allowed for this coup to take place without interruption or intervention. That means they failed. They did not hold under the weight. They crumbled and we are witnessing the dismantling of the American Empire.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

If you ask library workers to describe their dream library, one of the first things they’ll mention is having a social worker at the library (emphasizing the extraordinary helpers that they are!) 💚 Love that the Miami-Dade Library has social services to help neighbors access resources & programs ✨

A boycott is not just a flyer. It’s strategy. It’s coordination. It’s power. Boycotts don’t work in isolation. The Montgomery Bus Boycott wasn’t just about refusing to ride—it was carpools, mass meetings, & sustained organizing. I wrote about this here: www.ljoywilliams.com/blog/2025/1/...
