[email protected] : Were you satisfied with the answers you’ve gotten so far in this classified briefing on Venezuela? AOC: Oh, hell no. It was a joke. This was not a serious intelligence briefing. This was the communication of an opinion.

NY AG Letitia James has sued UPS for stealing millions in wages from its seasonal holiday workers. UPS' CEO made over $24M last year — over 436x her median worker's pay. This is a reminder that states can step up and protect workers when Trump's federal government refuses to.

FUCK ICE

🤣🤣🤣

This is utterly horrifying. Newborns taken away from Greenlandic moms by Denmark authorities because they couldn't answer questions like "how long does it take the suns' rays to reach the earth?" www.bbc.com/news/article...

This is so incredible. You have to see the photos. These workers held the line for THREE YEARS www.publicsource.org/post-gazette...

Jackson Heights Indivisible meeting is TONIGHT! If you're a resident of Jackson Heights, please come! @jh-indivisible.bsky.social www.mobilize.us/jacksonheigh...

The New York Times yet again legitimizing incredibly stupid ideas.

Trump, Musk, and the GOP killed hundreds of thousands of kids around the world. That should be a major story and talking point. They cut USAID to "save" from "waste," but gave 40 billion to Argentina and threw a Great Gatsby party and let Kash Patel burn our money for his honeypot GF.

Finally this boy is getting the attention he deserves. But please remember, HUNDREDS of Palestinian children are also in jail right now under so-called “administrative detention” (aka prison) with no trial and no legal representation, suffering horrific abuse at the hands of Israeli soldiers.

Emmanuel, a 15-year-old with intellectual disabilities, wandered away from his mom’s fruit stand in October. She reported him missing to Houston police. But instead of reuniting them, the city turned him over to ICE. “They’re failing all of us,” his mom said. thebarbedwire.com/2025/11/24/d...

Just a reminder that the Carville that y'all are giving props to right now is the SAME Carville who JUST LAST YEAR said that the Democratic party has "too many preachy females". So fuck him.

So I am officially BACK IN NYC!!!!!!! After 16 years enduring Florida, I have settled in Queens & feel reborn. Tonight I'm attending a Free Palestine volunteer mtg at the People's Forum. If you're around, please consider attending. There's a Zoom option! peoplesforum.org/events/volun...

I had an exchange (in my terrible Spanish) with Andry José Hernández Romero, the gay Venezuelan asylum seeker sent, without due process, to an El Salvadoran prison by the US. I told him that I posted a photo of him on here each day he was in captivity & he responded. He said I could share. ❤️

Learn something new every day.

New York City billboards are displaying the president’s 91 felony charges.

The Peculiar Patriot, performed in more than 35 US prisons, reveals the human cost of mass incarceration and the enduring ties between slavery and the prison system.

After 5 days of one of the worst upper respiratory infections I've had in a decade, I finally made it to Urgent Care. Ladies and gentlemen, proud to announce I have a cold. Even colds are meaner these days.

Now, this is interesting. Schumer needs to go. And as always. Free Palestine!

Here's what could have happened: Dems could have held strong, and asked Dem governors to fund their states’ SNAP payments with the promise that they would be reimbursed when Dems win the midterms. They could have asked every American who is able to volunteer /1

Senator Tim Kaine just send out his pathetic "explanation" as to why he voted to stop the shutdown. SHAME ON YOU @kaine.senate.gov. You caved & now millions of Americans will have to forego health insurance as their premiums triple, or quadruple, or even more! People will die because of your vote.

Going thru my phone, I found this reminder of the importance of sending books to people in prison. This was from a man who had been in solitary confinement for several years & received PRISON BY ANY OTHER NAME, my book with @mayaschenwar.bsky.social

SMDH They really introduced a bill called the MAMDANI bill.

Completely unhinged that the /Democrats subreddit has banned ANY use of the words "Mamdani", "Zohran" or "Democratic Socialists" and will ban users for repeated attempts.

Looks like Trump is already “testing the waters” with the National Guard in NYC. This is Borough Hall station this morning. He's really scared of Mamdani, isn't he?

After living in Florida for 16 years, it feels utterly exhilarating to take a 5 mile hike through a leaf-strewn forest as a hint of winter blows through the air.

THIS is how you write a proper headline. @truthout.org

😅 bye girl.

As a Muslim who will be moving *back to NYC* in exactly two weeks (after spending 16 very long years in Florida), the timing for this could not be more perfect.

“tom homan is a bitch” is a winning message

A tale as old as time. "When Trump officials started talking about cutting "waste, fraud and abuse," [Republican Mayor] Willis Van Dusen was enthusiastic. But when Trump's "waste, fraud and abuse" campaign came to his town, Van Dusen says he felt differently." www.npr.org/2025/11/05/n...

This article is crazy and so heart-breaking. And three of her "accusers" have made their home right here on Bluesky. Use that block button, people! www.thetimes.com/life-style/c...

Thrilled to announce I am officially moving back to NYC. I found a postage-stamp studio in Jackson Heights yesterday and hope to get involved in anti-ICE rapid response and pro-Pal activism (and mutual aid groups) so appreciate suggestions on who to follow!

This is located in the Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago, close to Fullerton and Sheffield. It's a densely populated area near DePaul University. I'm pleased to see the community standing up against these despicable individuals.

If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.

At this point, you should just join me in a full #economicboycott and buy just the essentials from as ethical a source as you can.
