The Monash Woodside partnership poisons the well for academic research. This association enables bad faith actor Woodside to steer time and funding into false solutions like carbon capture, hydrogen - even directing research back into carbon footprints (!) Shame @monashuniversity.bsky.social

Watch this - incredibly well done.

UPDATE: Organizers are accusing the president of putting on the parade as a show of dominance. The protests were peaceful, but came against the backdrop of assassinations in Minnesota.

NEW: The authoritarian crackdown begins in LA. This is dystopian. As the dictator’s parade is broadcast in the top right corner, MSNBC’s reporter and peaceful protestors are charged by police as tear gas is fired. Watch till the end.

I love the fact that Trump’s birthday parade today was a total dud, with a pathetically tiny crowd. That contrasts with the MILLIONS of people who turned out nationwide for the “No Kings” protests against Trump. #NoKingsDay

At a certain point, one of my grown kids & I stopped at a McDonalds, used the bathroom, ate some fries, waited for the other kid + other parent (aka The Husband), and FULLY THIRTY-FIVE MINUTES LATER WE ALL REJOINED THE MARCH IN PROGRESS.

Does anyone at ABC News stop and think how f’ing odious headlines like this are? People are being killed, ffs.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 92 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo* of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador. *No Kings except Andry

For those claiming protests don’t mean anything… How do you think movements are built, fueled, sustained, & grown? How do you prove the spirit of resistance is loud, proud, present, & powerful? How do you prove democracy is loved, valued, & worth fighting for? This IS what democracy looks like.

Trump's birthday parade is EMPTY 🤣 #Trump

“That’s Why America Is Great”: New York City Protesters Push Back With Love and Defiance #Trump

Pura Vida indeed!

Not to get too hopeful on main but fascism hinges on the projection of strongman invincibility and every ding and crack in that image is a win for resistance. And boy howdy was there some good dinging and cracking delivered today

This thread is amazing

Trump's military parade will cost $25-45 Million dollars, while federal funding for science is slashed, public servants are fired, and life-saving programs are ended, presumably to save money. Got it. I'll be saying what I think about that at @indivisible.org #NoKingsDay tomorrow. #StandUpForScience

PSA: We will be focusing on the “No Kings” rallies rather than his military charade, and we encourage other outlets to do the same. (‘Many people are saying’ they will have a much bigger turnout)

Happy No Kings Day! Our friends around the world are already getting started. See y'all out there today!

We’ve heard reports of guidance for DHS to “pause” raids on agricultural worksites— and we’re skeptical. As long as Border Patrol and ICE are sweeping through farm worker communities making chaotic arrests like they did TODAY, they’re still hunting down farm workers.

Lesson 13 of "On Tyranny": Practice corporeal politics. Find your No Kings protest, June 14th.

Good morning! Some original altCDC poetry to mark the occasion.🚫👑 #NoKings

JASON WILT: “I’m a Tennessee public school kid who became a Harvard scientist… Trump’s grant cuts aren't just numbers in a budget. They directly hurt students and young researchers like me.” www.tennessean.com/story/opinio...

"You're suffering a bit like Trump might say you're suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome" is definitely one way to begin an interview.

#AUKUS was a dodgy deal. But "the PM has never encouraged a widespread debate, or, for that matter, a population well educated on the issues at stake." Now that Albo has a huge majority, and with Trump in power, there's no excuse for secrecy. #auspol www.canberratimes.com.au/story/899116...

Rapidly scaling up renewable energy to limit future warming requires a sharp increase in the supply of critical minerals. Yet sourcing these minerals often comes at a steep cost. Now, a coalition of U.N. scientists is proposing a new way forward: a global minerals trust.

The Department of Defense has confirmed that U.S. Marines detained a civilian—reportedly an Army veteran who crossed a yellow tape boundary on his way to an office of the Department of Veterans Affairs. This is an apparent violation of the Posse Comitatus Act. 1/16 www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

The president is throwing a military parade today, despite his track record of disrespecting veterans and service members and cutting 83k jobs from the Dept. of Veterans Affairs. Former VA Secretary David Shulkin joins me at 10aET for the truth behind Trump's record with the military & vets. #Velshi

In new episode of #SistersInLaw, we break down the laws on using the military in domestic law enforcement, the arrests of members of Congress, and the indictment of Abrego Garcia. You can listen here. www.politicon.com/podcasts/tro...

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality. Donald Trump followed the authoritarian playbook this week. What can we do about it? On today's Coffee Klatch, we get some insight from Ezra Levin of Indivisible. https://youtu.be/8fOjNjPOEIU

Hit the streets tomorrow. Be nonviolent. Be joyfully defiant. Be defiantly joyful. Ridicule him. Condemn fascism. Oppose I.C.E. Affirm diversity. Embody America. Love your neighbor. Refuse to be intimidated. Be safe. Be loud. Be encouraged. #NoKingsDay

Trans children also have a right to privacy, both under the European Convention on Human Rights (Article 8) as well as under the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (Article 16).

A reminder for those following the Queensland government's attacks on trans children. These moves from christo-fascist governments are not just "culture wars". They have real life [and death] consequences for the most vulnerable. #TransRightsAreHumanRights #auspol
