Without provocation, masked federal agents indiscriminately shoot peaceful protesters with rubber bullets from the rooftop of the Portland ICE facility.

Spread the love and acceptance #pridemonth

Meanwhile, Trump is pushing for more private-sector usage of AI and fast tracking permits for more data centers after Big Tech companies donated huge amounts to his inauguration.

IT’S OFFICIAL: We now have more protests planned for October 18 than there were back in June. It’s not even October yet but you’ve already put 2,100 events on the No Kings map. We hope to see you at the largest day of peaceful protest in American history: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

"The events being seized upon by the White House and Republicans as evidence of surging crime in American cities have little to do with one another save for the fact that the victims are white."

NO KINGS! Columbus, Georgia

We hear that immigrants are "freeloaders," yet they're being arrested at their workplaces. We hear that immigrants "just need to follow the law," but when they attempt to, they're rounded up at courthouses. Hello?

“These are our streets!” This is where we’re at. This is not a Hollywood production, this can happen in any city and in every state, if we don’t stand up to this corrupt government. The time is now!… June 14th NO KINGS DAY PEACEFUL PROTEST!…

Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.

On his 100th day in office in 2017 Trump headed to a PA wheelbarrow factory to launch his trade policy and put the US on the path to today’s tariffs. Eight years on that factory is closed. The wheelbarrows are now made in China. My latest for @bloomberg.com: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

AOC: Donald Trump is a criminal. He was found guilty of 34 felony counts of fraud, found liable for sexual abuse. If he wants to find the rapists and criminals in this country, he should look in the mirror

“What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one.” I wrote about how our modern dystopia is more akin to Brave New World than 1984, with dopamine as Soma.

Thousands in Portland, Oregon, showing up for the #HandsOff protest there. (video via my dad!)

Hands Off! Columbus Georgia. Wonderful community.

Connecting SignalGate to Project2025: “They're doing official communications on Signal to avoid those communications being retained. There are Project 2025 training videos that specifically recommended this type of thing as a way to avoid subpoenas… There will be no evidence…” @tizzyent.bsky.social

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen is introducing a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United, the case that opened the floodgates to dark money and the buying of elections by billionnaires. 👏👏👏

I think Seth Abramson was right. threadreaderapp.com/thread/18543...

He was a few months ahead of himself.

Imagine fighting for the survival of your country and then having to sit through Trump and Vance - two pampered babies - and their cheap, performative BS. Zelenskyy is a man of honor, dignity, and genuine strength. His courage shames the MAGA and Russian cowards, and they hate him for it.

literally every time I talk to friends

Rachel @maddow.msnbc.com teaches a lesson in using power and privilege on behalf of others. This, I learned (rather late) in a university, is the obligation of tenure: to speak for those in precarity. This goes doubly for me as an old, white man. Example 1 of 2:

Yes, treating Trump/MAGA like an aberration, one constrained by US institutions, and worth waiting out before things go back to normal, was a reasonable response to the first Trump administration. After he tried a coup, broke many laws, ran against Constitutional democracy, and won? It’d be naive.

Government does important work — but not if DOGE can prevent it paulkrugman.substack.com/p/our-govern...

Knowledge is power…

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!

Shame on you, Google.

No point following the confirmation hearings. The grand high poobahs of the Republican party are going to give them all a pass. How about that guy Tuberville? He makes MTG look like a Mensa scholar.

Let me ask you this: Where are the articles about Donald Trump’s toupee and orange makeup. The media will never hold men to the same unrealistic standards they hold women. The media failed Kamala. And America.

Vice President Kamala Harris addressed her supporters tonight to thank them — to thank us. And not even ten minutes after her speech, the media is already belittling her appearance. Her hair. Her clothes. Her nails.
