Oh good then you don't mind the tag since it's hardly worth mentioning anyway

hey so even if you do sweep Dems into power again all those people who are openly calling for your murder will still exist so what is your plan because last time Dems were in office they didn’t do anything about it and now we’re here and my god we can’t keep doing this why do you refuse the lesson

NEW: In his first interview since his arrest for protesting outside the Chicago-area ICE facility, @revdrmichaelwoolf.bsky.social tells me he has "bruises all over my body." Even so, he said, “the cruelty that goes on that facility … must be 100 times worse." religionnews.com/2025/11/15/a...

NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected. And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.* Tax the rich. Greg Ryan in @bloomberg.com:

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving: $100 billion Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%: $100 billion One is decried as "welfare." One is not. Why?

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

Here is a corrected version of it. It should have any and all typos taken care of - but feel free to point out any! I want this to be squared away before I make any prints! Thanks, #JewSky for your enthusiasm!

SNAP is not the reason your taxes are high. SNAP recipients don’t need to “just go get a job”. Most of them work. The rest are disabled, elderly, children or caregivers. People need & deserve assistance Your taxes fund wars and tax cuts for the ultra rich Be mad about that

zero tolerance for nazism should be an easy line to draw

There is a faction of the US left (such as it is) that has itself absolutely convinced that the key to reaching the Noble Salt Of The Earth Everyman is to be performatively chill about people bringing Nazi shit into political space. Nope. All that does is turn your political space into a Nazi space

Putting a Democrat with a Nazi tattoo in the Senate normalizes Naziism in our federal politics for a long ass time. All these recent stories about secret Nazi group chats? Anytime that happens going forward will be met with "But Platner." It's not a purity test. Think through the consequences.

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

A friend in DC got hit in the latest round of illegal layoffs at HHS, after close to a decade of public service. A friend in Chicago is walking their kid's classmate to school, because that kid's parent doesn't feel safe doing so. It doesn't have to be this way.

Quick reminder that Christopher Columbus was considered a vile, repulsive, evil man even in his own time. His actions as governor of Spain's New World colonies landed him in prison for his cruelty and violence.

“everyone is twelve now” theory

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram. Community action works. Source: www.instagram.com/reel/DPZL2AL...

Val and I checked repeatedly because we simply couldn't believe no national or local news organizations covered this letter from 18 AGs in support of trans youth care and against FTC overreach. If you find any stories, let us know, but it seems to be our exclusive.

Nobody cares about the victims in the Dallas ICE shooting apparently. The first I've heard about one of them was on CNN today. He's fighting for his life in the hospital --- he was brought to the US when he was 13. He's 33 now. No criminal record. I just don't know what to say anymore.

alright these bills are about to knock me on my ass guys gofund.me/116e90e87

The @washingtonpost.com story on Tylenol & autism leaves out a MAJOR 2.5M sibling-controlled study of children in Denmark, which "found no evidence that acetaminophen use during pregnancy was associated with children’s risk of autism, ADHD or intellectual disability." jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

"They're politicians, what are they supposed to do? Literally fight in the streets?" Unashamed to say this made me cry.

Here is some non-satire for you: Trans rights forever.

For those praising Charlie Kirk, ask them if they agree with Kirk when he said the Civil Rights Act was a huge mistake, MLK was an awful person, Palestine doesn't exist, women's place is under their husband, and that the white supremacist "replacement theory" is real. I'd love to hear the answers.

Please hear me when I say that this man was a Nazi propagandist and fascist organizer, and must be loudly remembered as such in the coming days

reblog to give a silksong player heartburn

Everything I see from Pritzker makes me think “this guy seems like what we need” which is why I’m totally unsurprised that most libs are excited for Gavin Newsom

Pritzker: "I refuse to pretend that any of this is normal ... I refuse to fall into the pundit trap that demands we sacrifice vital constitutional rights if it's being done in the fake guise of fighting crime."

#bannedbooksweek #censorship bannedbooksweek.org

If you are okay with this, if you think this is justified, if you think people living on the street have brought this upon themselves, if you think this is good leadership, you may be able to fool yourself that you care about others but you don’t fool me

that he is one of the few Democrats actually doing something in response to Trump does not change the fact that Newsom fucking sucks and I don’t want him to run either the state or the country

remember folks, we cant have gun restrictions because if we do the federal government will occupy our streets, imprison people without due process, ship dissidents to foreign gulags and things of that nature

Donald Trump is attempting to manufacture a crisis, politicize Americans who serve in uniform, and continue abusing his power to distract from the pain he's causing families. We'll continue to follow the law, stand up for the sovereignty of our state, and protect Illinoisans.

Y’all, I can make this conversation about Gavin Newsom easier on my end. I will not support anyone who is openly anti trans and openly against unhoused people. You can tell me all your reasons for supporting him, and I will simply say this. Explain why your rights are more important than theirs.

Illinois is launching a first-of-its-kind legal hotline for LGBTQ+ individuals — Illinois Pride Connect. As the only state in the nation that will provide free legal advice to protect the LGBTQ+ community, we'll help fight ignorance with information and cruelty with compassion.

Oh, I remember a story about him and signing a book There it is, from the other site.

I dunno guys maybe we should listen to how every californian who is very familiar with newsom keeps saying “ABSOLUTELY NOT, DO NOT TRUST THIS MAN”

Too much "we're cooked" & not enough "we're not gonna take this shit"

visa and mastercard deciding what games are allowed to be sold is an apocalyptic level threat to the games industry. phone calls are the highest impact way to help. this is an all hands on deck situation. the enemy got results with 1000 phone calls. we can beat them phone numbers and a script:

Make no mistake: Alligator Alcatraz IS a concentration camp, and they absolutely ARE planning genocide and ‘ethnic cleansing.’ As a white person, i don’t know what I can do to help, but if all I have is my voice, I will make sure it’s heard.

every leftist politician in america needs to follow the mamdani formula. he is the case study for the future

Some lessons here: 1) feds are still very interested in "Antifa" 2) little get out of jail free lines like "in Minecraft" or "I don't have the skills" don't keep you out of jail 3) do this in someone's replies, you put THEM on fed radar, too
