Friends! The New School has cancelled one of its most popular graduate courses, Global Soccer and World Politics. We want to host this course for @resistanceschool.bsky.social ahead of the 2026 World Cup. Interested? Fill the interest form here! www.resistancestudiesseries.com/worldcupwait...

This has become a genocide of Black and Brown people in the United States. It is simultaneously shocking, horrifying, and devastating and completely on brand for this country.

Amidst all the atrocities taking place in the U.S., please don't forget the imminent threat of being robbed of our public lands. Once this happens, to paraphrase Heather Cox Richardson, we will never get them back. (Sample letter to U.S. senators included in article.)

Yes. And this is why I have consistently disagreed with calls to impeach Trump. Unless the entire regime is removed, this would only hasten our demise. Vance is younger and smarter and has a longer attention span. And he understands the assignment.

This makes me physically ill.

Help out if you can. And donate to the ones that have the least please.

I'm attending Indivisible's event, “Rapid Response Call: ICE Killing and Lawlessness in Minneapolis” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

LYING: It's the Lord's work!

🚨The MAGA Cult wants to destroy PBS because they don’t bow down to their dear leader like 60 minutes does.

I've now watched the censored 60 Minutes report on CECOT. If you watched it too—and if you have any decency at all—I'm sure you came to the same conclusion I did: winning elections won't be enough; people like Stephen Miller and Kristi Noem will need to be charged and imprisoned.

Mississippians who rely on SNAP to afford food are still waiting to receive full November benefits more than a week after the government shutdown ended due to technical issues with 40-year-old computer systems. There’s no guarantee full payments will arrive by Thanksgiving or even before December.

My god. After 4 days in ICE custody, they found the man in a shower stall hog-tied, with a sheet around his neck. The medical examiner claimed there were other instances of this. Which means this is not an isolated case. Trump's Lynching America

Well, you can finally cross “I’ve seen a handcuffed, inflatable penis” off your bucket list

Stay classy, Donald.

James Comey handed the 2016 election to Donald Trump by announcing a sham investigation against his opponent, causing people to forget the "Access Hollywood" tape & doubt Clinton's honesty. Today, Trump thanked Comey by corruptly indicting him. To Donald, loyalty & gratitude are one-way streets.

I recently resubscribed to WaPo *only* because I wanted to have access to Karen Attiah’s articles. Karen is an exceptional journalist and educator who is passionate about good journalism, telling the truth about history and the current state of the world, and educating people about racism.

Here's how to support my work: I'll be teaching a version of my Columbia class on Race, Media and International Affairs 101 and 102 next month for @resistanceschool.bsky.social. The course is online/ hybrid. Deadline is Sept. 19th! Sign up! www.resistancesummerschool.com/fall-2025-re...

We all know ‘tragedy’ comes from Greek. ‘tragos’ = goat ‘aeidein’ = to sing So ‘tragedy’ originally meant “goat song.” Not to be confused with the GOAT song, which is probably “Fast Car” by Tracy Chapman.

🚨BREAKING: DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has just unlawfully placed signatories to the Katrina Declaration on administrative leave. See the letter below…🧵

Just for the record, “orange wanktrumpet” is NOT Scots for “President of Europe”, someone was lying to you

As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous. Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.

Imagine your family member about to be disappeared and someone yelling at you about some files and that your family member’s disappearance is a “distraction”.

The military takeover of Washington is not a “distraction” from Epstein. It’s a military takeover of Washington, which is an even bigger deal, and those of us who kill brain cells reporting on this stuff knows it’s been an explicit goal since before the election.

Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all: “If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.” Israel just killed him.

I second this! This is an excellent class. #WeMove2025

DEMAND A TOWN HALL THEY HAVE FREE TIME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Republicans will do or say ANYTHING not to release the Epstein files.

Must-read reportage on ICE tactics in Sacramento: “volunteers were escorting a man from his hearing when ICE officers swooped in, pulling up their masks to hide their faces and forcefully snatching the man out of the grasp of the women…” 1/2 www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

@tomtomorrow.bsky.social @rubenbolling.bsky.social First they come for the comedians, then the cartoonist. Kings fear being laughed at. We have a funny bone to pick with/without a smile on our faces #Colbert #Kimmel #SethMeyers #DailyShow

It appears that the United States is going to celebrate its Semiquincentennial Anniversary by burning itself to the ground and then salting the earth. Glory!

Many of the same people trying to convince you that Trump didn't actually mean the racist things he definitely said are trying to convince you that Mamdani definitely meant the thing he never actually said.

I just called my reps with @5calls.org, you should too: 5calls.org

This is an actual news story in Russian state media and summarizes exactly what the Russians think of Trump and America

As someone who has lived with RA for over 40 years... even the hint of this is so incredible.

I wish the American people could declare a presidential administration a national emergency.

Fully on board with dems running for office promising to reinstate fired federal employees and jail this administration’s various criminals, but let’s go ahead and add “we will seize by eminent domain any national parkland sold to developers”

It's official. Resistance Summer School is happening. Columbia cancelled my class on Race, Media and International Affairs, but I'm going to teach it anyway. 100+ people have enrolled in just six hours. karenattiah.substack.com/p/enrollment...

Nephew just whispered something into a Cadbury Easter Bunny's ears then broke off its head. I'm sleeping with the lights on.

This brings me joy.
