Thank you @neatoday.bsky.social for voting to cut ties with the ADL. The ADL pretends it's a civil rights group, but really, it's a pro-Israel lobbying group that smears Palestinian rights, and it should never be trusted as an educational resource. I urge all educators to #DropTheADL.

“Huerta is the something more of these immigration raids — not because he’s a union boss, but because he’s a union organizer with ties to both people in power and people in fear. The coming months will show what happens when those two groups decide, together, that backing down is not an option.”

The U.S. Constitution and longstanding federal law strictly limit the use of the military to police civilians. Under the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, active-duty military forces are prohibited from engaging in domestic law enforcement unless explicitly authorized by Congress or the Constitution.

"If you got arrested then you weren't protesting peacefully" is a lie. Stop spreading it.

*New English & Spanish #KYR* DHS has expanded its use of the 'expedited removal' process. Undocumented community members are now at greater risk of being put in a rapid deportation process - without the right to appear in front of an immigration judge. What changed & how people can prepare 🧵

In light of the DC raids we want to reshare our ICE watch 101 graphics. Reminder to verify, document, and then report to our hotline.

At its core, #MayDay is about solidarity. Workers around the globe are taking action this International Workers’ Day to stand up to the billionaires who are threatening our rights and freedoms, and America’s unions are standing with them in solidarity.

BREAKING: Judge grants a temporary restraining order to stop the shutdown of the Institute for Museum and Library Sciences thanks to a case brought by AFSCME, @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social & @democracyforward.org This is a victory for our nation's library and museum workers.

Oh shit

Character is standing against genocide knowing that power may come after you. Cowardice is repressing those under your care because power threatens you.

This is how our government has been corrupted:  1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office.  2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor.  3) Donors make a huge profit.  4) Repeat. For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

I want to share with you three rules for fighting tyrannical fear and intimidation, gleaned from discussions I’ve had with a number of people who have lived in repressive regimes. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-respond-to-fear-and-intimidation

WITH NO STRINGS ATTACHED. 👏🏽 We are capable of and deserve better than the system we’ve got.

Genuinely impressive how quickly a small cadre of malevolently incompetent bigots can entirely tank the largest economy in the history of the world when the party with the power to check those bigots simply decides not to do so.

Thanks to everyone who participated nationwide!

Was just talking about this yesterday.

Keep holding their feet to the fire.

The Trump-Vance-Musk regime is not only undermining democracy in the US. It is laying the foundation for undermining democracies around the world. The emerging battle will be global democracy vs. a global oligarchy. The US is emerging on the side of global oligarchy.

Trump Is Fueling a MAGA Civil War The power struggle between the unelected & incompetent South African billionaire vs unqualified & incompetent Trump appointees is now public. Who will win? Who will Trump side with? And how do we fight back? www.qasimrashid.com/p/trump-is-i...

"U.S. negotiators pressing Kyiv for access to Ukraine's critical minerals have raised the possibility of cutting the country's access to Elon Musk's vital Starlink satellite internet system, three sources familiar with the matter told Reuters."

How does firing Americans help make America great again? Cutting 5-8% of the workers is unproductive and harmful to our economy and society. This is just simply reckless and unsustainable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

Last week, anti-Zionist Jewish students across the country marked the holiday of Tu Bishvat, the new year of the trees, with Palestine solidarity seders standing against the Israeli government’s systematic destruction of Palestinian land.

84% HUD staff cuts will cause irreversible harm to towns still recovering & trying to rebuild from recent disasters. Trump is giving tax breaks to his rich friends over ensuring HUD can deliver resources to you.   Hear 👏🏾 Me 👏🏾 Clearly 👏🏾    He doesn't care about you!

This is the story of E.S., who is living with HIV in a Gaza under siege.

We should all be extremely alarmed by this. Our prison industry is already enormous, inhumane, and dependent on the destruction of human lives.
