If I’m thinking thru the senate rules right (by no means certain), I think a single D senator can force the voting that’s starts tomorrow to last into the beginning of next week by refusing unanimous consent. That can slow things down and allow the backlash to expand.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

BREAKING: Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema have cast decisive votes against Biden's NLRB nominee. This means the Democrats will not secure control of the national labor regulator through 2026. These two Senators effectively handed Trump control of the board when his term begins.

Dehumanization is a process. This reminds me of Arendt's concept of superfluous wealth using superfluous people as a means of fueling endless expansion. Homeless people are inherently rightless and considered both superfluous and outside of society.

I'm as upset about the Water Wars as anyone else, but I still don't think violence is the answer. The people who bottle up all the water and force us to sell our children into slavery for a single drop are NOT the problem. It's more a systemic thing
