Good news: While it’s always worrisome when media giants start merging at all, Netflix buying Warner Bros. would be preferable, because Trump and Ellison don’t control Netflix, so there’s less potential for censorship, brainwashing and erasure: youtu.be/f9Gd72wIbMs?

Good news! Indiana Republicans defied Trump’s attempt to cheat by redrawing new congressional districts ahead of the midterms: youtu.be/i-Av64pT584?...

I like that Yani Varoufakis (former Finance Minister of Greece after the 2008 crash) doesn't just terrify us by explaining techno-feudalism (see previous post) but he proposes a creative solution to the problem. Thoughts? #MonetaryCommons youtu.be/2PBQEFOtkkA?...

ICE raids are cruel, inhumane, and do nothing to serve public safety. My responsibility is to be the mayor to each and every person that calls this city their home. That includes millions of immigrants— of which I am one.

Today’s the day for this exciting race! It’s a long shot, but Behn, a progressive, has already closed the gap from 22 points behind in a deep red Trump district. Winning this race would eliminate the Republican majority in Congress, as soon as MTG leaves🤞🏻💛 open.substack.com/pub/americas...

4 republicans had the guts—and the moral compass—to do what’s right—but the rest were driven to defy the President by We the People—survivors and voters. Our activism MATTERS. Every phone call, email, petition, postcard and protest. WE did this💛💪🏾💪🏽💪🏻💜 www.nytimes.com/2025/11/19/p...

Good news: federal courts shot down Texas’ attempt to cheat and give themselves 5 extra Congressional seats. Bad news: Gov. Abbot is appealing to SCOTUS, which is stacked with right-leaning judges. Why it’s still a victory: *Slowing Trump down matters*—it buys time. www.npr.org/2025/11/18/n...
