The most frustrating thing about this whole manufacturing bullshit tariff debacle is that there ARE good jobs that we need to be funding here have here that can’t be outsourced. It’s called the Green New Deal.

If one of us stands up, they can pick that person off. If ten or a hundred or a thousand, they can pick those people off. And they're picking off people--immigrants, dissidents--to make an example of them. But if ten million people stand up, they cannot stop us all.

Yesterday, 1,400 protests were held to protest the Trump whose headlines fill this page. But to the #BrokenTimes this morning, they are a buried BTW. It has plenty of photos; none here. This is what they call "news judgment." To the Times, we are not news.

You could tell the story of media in the Trump era with these two images. The first is the NYT front page after the Women’s March, the second is NYT front page today.

I keep telling my academic friends to turn their books into short pamphlets and to hand those out for free in their communities. I excerpted a chapter from a friend's book last year, made it into a zine, and so far I've distributed 400 hard copies and it's also available for digital download.

I don't just want to see Pierre Poilievre and the CPC lose, I want to see them so crushed that no major Canadian party ever flirts with or supports the extreme right again. Every vote against the CPC and PPC matters. Be sure to vote. Send them and the world a message. #cdnpoli #canpoli

Told my spouse I was drafting a post complaining about the edge-lords on here coming into people's mentions with the hot take that because yday's protests were nonviolent they would achieve nothing. Yeah, he said. Provocateurs gonna provoke. So I guess that's all that needs to be said about that.

feels worth flagging that we've now had sustained disparate protest and One Big Day protest at or above the scale of 2017 so it might be time to drop the "public reaction to trump has been more muted in his second term" spiel

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

The biggest thing we need to do is let people know that the protests are FUN. Yelling fuck the man is fun. You will meet fun people. We also need to make them more fun. Bring grills like the French. Bring instruments like it’s Mardi Gras. Give people a reason to spend their weekend in the streets.

So many things none of us will perceive will come out of today's gatherings. That's the point. People find each other, they take some strength and remember they aren't actually isolated and alone. This is fortification for what's to come.

Man, the big huge protests in places like Boston, DC, NY, Chicago, and Minneapolis are awe-inspiring. But my heart is gonna explode looking at these crowds of people out in tiny Maine towns and super red Alabama towns. Places where 15% of the population is on the street corner with more coming!

I legit hate people who dunk on the homeless. Because the difference between homeless people & not homeless people is that non homeless people have community, money, resources and support to house them when very catastrophic life events happen to them…while homeless people just do not

Remember folks, if you're protesting and someone starts goading you to get violent, they're a cop. If you get arrested or detained in any way, ask, "Am I free to go?" If they say yes, walk away. No? Shut the fuck up. Don't say anything else without a lawyer. Good trouble, friends. Get busy.

To me, this is the easiest layup for DC Democrats. Go to the IRS, chain yourselves there and raise the alarm about this so that USians understand what they are doing.

Share pictures from the protests today, and amplify them when others share. The public hates what the GOP is doing to this country--and it's critical for everyone to know that people are fighting back.
