It's just amazing, and horrifying, that so many people have zero dignity whatsoever. All because of one man.

We believe there are few investigations that deserve more sunlight and public scrutiny than this one, in which two masked agents fired 10 shots at Alex Pretti as he lay on the ground after being pepper-sprayed. Read our full story: https://propub.li/4qUNfXH

worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

THE PROTESTS ARE WORKING ✊🏾✊🏼✊🏽✊🏿✊🏻 Pressure creates progress They aren’t just listening; they’re sweating.

The GOP blames women for undermining them on issues like abortion & ICE & thus hopes to pass the “SAVE Act,” which will make it harder for married women who changed their last names to vote. But they want you to think it’s about “election integrity”. 1/31/26 #HandmaidsTale 1/

KNOXVILLE STUDENTS: “To see this many people come out, it means so much. Because living in the South it can feel isolating to have these different viewpoints.” Huge student-led anti-ICE walkout happened today, despite threats of discipline from school officials💪🏽 (From WBIR)

Wow. The front page of tomorrow’s Charlie Hebdo magazine in France.

She was born in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in March 1945, and is one of the youngest Holocaust survivors. Now 81, Ilana Kantorowicz Shalem is sharing her story for the first time.

"Faith is another word for hope." Bend the Arc CEO @jamieberan.bsky.social spoke in Minneapolis with other faith leaders last week to oppose ICE’s cruelty, call out the Trump administration’s lies, and remind us that our traditions call us to action to protect each other.

Can’t believe I‘m saying this, but Bill Clinton put out a pretty powerful statement about the killings in Minneapolis.

“The Global Gag Rule is a disastrous and deadly US policy. It forces many struggling organizations that depend on US funding into an impossible choice: limit essential healthcare for the most vulnerable populations or shut their doors." – Erika Guevara-Rosas, Amnesty International

We are deeply saddened by the loss of Dr. William H. Foege, a towering figure in global public health whose visionary leadership changed the course of human history. Bill's contributions to the eradication of smallpox stand as one of the most extraordinary achievements in medicine and epidemiology.

An ICE whistleblower revealed an illegal Trump DHS memo authorizing Trump regime forces to break into civilian homes, this is in violation of the following federal criminal codes: 18 U.S.C. § 241 18 U.S.C. § 242 18 U.S.C. § 371 18 U.S.C. § 2236 18 U.S.C. § 2234 #3E #GoodvsEvil

Large protest through NYC in response to ICE killing of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis this afternoon.

Abolish ICE, Prosecute Every Single One of Them, and Send Greg Bovino, Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, and Donald J Trump to The Hague

If DHS funding requires endorsing ICE as-is, shutting down the government is the least harmful option.

The official policy of the government of the United States of America is that they will murder anyone they want, that they will tell any lie necessary to justify that murder, and that no one who resists them has any rights they are bound to respect. /1

The US is quitting 66 global agencies: what does it mean for science?

We have to get rid of Jeffries and Schumer. We have to. It’s unendurable that these men are the most prominent Democrats of the moment. They are two of the most broadly undistinguished men I could imagine in politics, zero fire, zero fight, zero zeal, machine politicians with sinecures.

A few months ago @jenna-m-norton.bsky.social and I talked to @mattsheffield.bsky.social about how science and democracy are linked. That caught the attention of the anti-science crew. “Crank”* Paul Thacker objected, see below. But I stand by it. Science and free speech are under attack. 1/

Tonight's reminder that fewer than 10 people can end the worst of all of this immediately, simply by caucusing with Democrats & giving them control of both chambers of Congress. Absolute Profiles in Cowardice. bsky.app/profile/mcop...

I was taught from a very young age that there’s a cyclical nature to things & history often repeats itself. But never in my wildest nightmares could I have imagined all this. Speak the truth, give of yourself, put up a fight for what you love. Get in GOOD trouble. It’s on all of us now. #MLK
