Jake Lang's U-Haul got towed today after only him and one of his Nazi associates showed up to a hate rally with hundreds of counter-protestors in Dearborn, Michan. U-Haul revoked the rental. 😂

Trevvy took this Nazi asshole's hat, mocked him for it and then gave it to a black lady. It's one of the funniest things I've ever seen. He's a hero.

The Speaker of the House in Alabama calls on the courts to “overturn the 14th Amendment.” This is the same legislative body, a court found engaged in intentional racial discrimination in drawing voting maps in the Milligan case.

Wages are not keeping up with skyrocketing inflation. Prices are going up on everything from rent, to groceries, gas, utilities and more. This is a cost-of-living crisis. We can start providing some relief by giving workers a raise NOW.

There is no clearer case for the necessity of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 than how quickly southern states moved to eliminate Black-majority districts and dilute Black power after SCOTUS eroded Section 2. SCOTUS’s reasoning was immediately disproven by reality.

These state legislatures are about to learn a hard lesson in how what the south was and what it is now are two different things. They can rig districts, but they can't rig what happens when the opposition utilizes direct action to oppose them.

Going by right wing media they seem convinced that there's SPLC informants in every RW group in America. That sentiment should be encouraged by the left. It disrupts their ability to organize anything bigger than a group chat. They're neutered by their own paranoia.

The SPLC indictment is doing more to divide the right than to intimidate the left. They're shackling people on their own side for allegedly being paid informants. The message is that they can't trust anybody. That alone should make people send the SPLC more donations.
