Make the Goddamn meal and put it in your Free Fridge. Write the $100 check to the food bank. Ask your local school what they need for the kids and then go about trying to get that stuff.... Do these things regularly and you are making meaningful contributions to your communities.

I just love this so much! www.youtube.com/watch?v=efIA...

Senate update: Republicans are now trying to sneak a backdoor national abortion ban into their government funding bill. Republicans will stop at nothing to control women's health care decisions.

I’ve been trying to say this for a while, but I feel like no one is really listening to me who’s obsessively focused on the “groyper problem” at the expense of everything else. The issue with unhinged far-right streamers goes beyond Fuentes and the groypers. Things have been cooked for years.

The @nytimes.com is apparently stuck in the height of "sex trafficking" hysteria c. 2012, when every city and town was competing to be the biggest "sex trafficking hub" maggiemcneill.wordpress.com/resources/ki... and some politicians were breathlessly moaning that certain STREETS were "hubs".

The teen whose city council testimony went viral has started an online fundraiser to raise money for Hillsboro community members whose loved ones have been impacted by ICE enforcement.

"When I picked up my granddaughter from the federal agents, she had a dirty diaper, a bruise on her face, and was developing a rash. She was exhausted and cried… My heart aches knowing this could happen to others, to my kids, or even me, despite being U.S. citizens.”

A NYT's reporter embedding with LA Vice cops says everything you need to know about the NYT’s ethics. This is a garbage piece from beginning to end. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/26/m...

The Trump administration is canceling infrastructure projects across the country, raising our energy bills and locking thousands of workers out of the jobs. It’s an attack on working families across the country.

EXCLUSIVE: The Trump administrations says the U.S. is in a state of "armed conflict" with 24 cartel groups The groups don't even know it. The list is secret -- even from members of Congress For more on Trump's secret fantasy wars, see my latest @theintercept.com theintercept.com/2025/11/07/t...

UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese has responded to Israel’s UN Ambassador Danny Danon after he called her a “witch”, saying, “If I had the power to make spells... I would use it to stop your crimes once and for all.” 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/ihrv92

/2 1. Real human beings will suffer from even a brief stay. 2. The government's position is transparently dishonest and in bad faith. 3. The Supreme Court has lost any benefit of the doubt. They have lost the mandate of the heaven that is the rule of law.

The Supreme Court granted the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to temporarily block a court order to fully fund SNAP food aid payments.

Spotlight is such a good movie. I'm watching it for at least the 3rd time.

The rule of law has been upheld, not the whims of a wannabe king. Today a federal judge issued a permanent injunction against the National Guard being deployed in Portland. This affirms what we’ve always known: Portland is home. Not a military target.

Our message to the Trump administration is simple: Enough is enough. Fund the government. Fix the mounting health care crisis. Put working people first.

These are people who are complying with the law. They're coming to their hearings, doing what's asked of them. ICE is snatching them up because Trump wants numbers, and it's a lot easier and cheaper to detain compliant people than to hunt down dangerous people evading apprehension.

The online reactions to EBT cards being reloaded are intense. Some people shared photos of their empty refrigerators and talked about rushing to the store before it closed last night.

Sick coal miners deep in Trump country fight back, saying they are being suffocated by government policies aimed at helping industry while stripping away worker health and safety regulations written in blood over decades.

This is the facility that I and many others have been protesting. We’ve been hit, thrown, gassed, and shot with pepper bullets but none of that holds a candle to what is being done to people *in* the actual facility. Read this thread. Don’t look away. Keep your eyes and the pressure on Broadview.

HUGE NEWS! Because of Democratic pressure, Oregon SNAP recipients are reporting their cards have the FULL November benefits!   Everyone who called out Trump for using hungry children and seniors as a bargaining chip has WON with tremendous results!!

The AP tracked down details of some of the people killed in President Trump's military strikes on drug smugglers he describes as narco-terrorists. They were, with one exception, not high-level criminals. One was a fisherman. One was a bus driver; another a taxi driver. apnews.com/article/trum...

The Port of Portland has had no “direct notification” about the Trump administration’s plans.

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

This is happening at every party and food bank!

Oregon’s sanctuary laws prohibit local governments from using public resources for immigration enforcement.

A cabbage farm in upstate NY. Cabbage is one of the hardest crops to pick. Huge crates are pulled by a tractor, workers have to rush to keep up and fill them. Picking cabbage requires long hours of bending over and cutting the plant and is done in all sorts of weather. #WeFeedYou

Because of ICE activity, two North Portland schools tightened security and canceled after-school programs. This is what “immigration enforcement” does to communities.

Katie Daviscourt — a J6er — claims she’s riding with ICE in Portland. Nothing says "journalism” like tagging along with goons while they arrest people. 🙃

I will translate from NPRese Scientists are alarmed because the Trump admin has gutted the CDC and USDA at a time when this virus could jump to a threat to humans anyday now. 🩺🧪

This was a packed Hillsboro City Council meeting — at least 3 hours long. Residents demand: stop ICE collab, aid for immigrant families, end Flock surveillance, and hold police accountable. This community, about 30 minutes west of Portland, is living in fear!

NEW: Billions of pounds of food are imported to the U.S. each year. The FDA inspects foreign producers to ensure what we're eating is safe from pathogens and dangerous manufacturing practices. But now, after Trump's drastic staff cuts, these inspections have plummeted to a historic low. 🧵/

I've raved about Hush in the past, but I think this is the most interesting episode so far: it's about how people get their information and how they evaluate it in today's messed up information ecosystem. Those of you who know what I study will know why this one is so relevant to my own work.

Getting new details on this now: As the arrest unfolded, teachers pleaded with the agents telling them the teacher had a work permit. The agents went into multiple rooms looking for teachers while children were present. One teacher hid with a child in her care while the agents stormed the facility.

"Running list of German support organizations for your kit bags," said a US Army website in Germany about the government shutdown. It was a list of local food banks

The only thing is they don't recognize that they were the religious zealots taking away freedom After listening to a republican talk about how women can just birth stillborns because cows can do it, there's nothing terrifying about Mamdani to the average person

CHARLAMAGNE: “Van, shut the f*ck up forever.” He gives van jones the “DONKEY OF THE DAY” 🫏 award for calling Zohran’s speech “divisive” — as @mehdirhasan.bsky.social reminds us Kushner’s buddy Van once said “tonight, Trump became president” after a Trump speech.

Remarkable: In Virginia and New Jersey, Spanberger and Sherrill erased the GOP edge among working class. Per exit polls, each got 50% of noncollege voters, big gains over previous contests. Shocker: Anti-Trump politics appeals to working class, too! New from me: newrepublic.com/article/2027...
