Icymi: The government shutdown ended with a federal ban on marijuana above 0.4 grams — effectively destroying the $28-billion hemp industry, and hard-hitting farmers at the worst possible time. Many of us use marijuana to stay calm; unlike alcohol, it *reduces* violent crime — it doesn’t *cause* it

“We're not going to react to every single thing that Trump does. We can't stop that. What we can do is we can help feed the hungry people in our community. We can help provide shelter and warmth to the houseless people in our community.” - @emily.gorcen.ski

I wrote this eight months ago and it’s as relevant now as it was then.

It’s too bad that those of us on the research and academic side who’ve been correctly saying that the goal for the Republicans was global ethnic cleansing and mass murder have been getting smeared by liberals and others on this site as conspiracy theorists or doomers for pointing this out months ago

The 5 years proceeding the Trump presidency many well intentioned people said to me: “Why are you so obsessed with Nazis? No one wants to hear about that. It’s a small group of people and most are deadbeats without jobs.” 2025:

"The complaint details alleged 'decrepit' conditions, where sewage bubbles up shower drains, insects crawl up and down the walls of cold concrete group cells the size of parking lots, calls for medical help go unanswered for weeks and people are excessively punished" www.latimes.com/california/s...

For The Redoubt (@theredoubt.bsky.social), I wrote about Trump's killings in the Caribbean — his "kinetic strikes" — and the euphemisms we use to describe murder. www.theredoubt.net/how-we-talk-...

Hey folks, I just had to renew my health insurance and I’ve got to pay my car registration this month—all while I’ve finally got the big move to a permanent new home underway. I could use about $300 so I don’t get overdrawn in a few days. See the post below if you can help. Many thanks.

“Come hang out, and you hopefully make some really good friends out of the whole process.” There's a growing number of Queer Social Clubs that offer sober alternatives to the bars, from hiking to yoga to line dancing and soup. My first for "Big and Bright," @thebarbedwire.com's queer news section.

Trump and team are “waging a coordinated disinformation campaign to seize illegitimate control by eroding progress and rewriting history.” A new report “exposes 15,723 distinct impact points-each one an instance in which Black opportunities, lives, or histories have been directly attacked.”

Emily and all the folks who put their bodies on the line to protest the unite the right rally are fucking heroes. Really excited to listen to this convo.

"The pushback against Republican leadership, that's the thread common to all the victories from coast to coast, north to south, be it federal, be it state, be it mayoral races, school board races, referendums, you name it, the voters came out and voted against Republicans" - @pamkeithdc.bsky.social

To 'stand with Palestine' cannot mean simply attending the talk, posting the quote, or wearing the keffiyeh at the right conference. Liberation is not a brand identity. It requires cost. It requires risk. It requires material consequence, not just moral posturing africasacountry.com/2025/11/when...

Amanda doesn't know I'm doing this, but if you'd like to send her a few dollars to tell her Shaheen was a dirtbag for using this video and then caving, her venmo is @Amanda-McGuire-8 Amanda will probably need help to survive based on the actions of the person who used her video for content unreal

I don't think it's cowardice. I think that they are OK with what the GOP is doing. The sooner folks reconcile with this, the better.

I want to send you a FREE signed copy of one of my books. Lots of food insecure people are about to lose SNAP benefits. Donate $36 or more to any food insecure person and I will mail your FREE signed copy anywhere in the continental US. Email your receipt to [email protected]!

Oh Hai 👋🏿 If I can keep these gig contracts steady, the last 15% of this campaign (that I started in October 2022) will go to the bigger ticket items that I still need like neonate appropriate pulse oximeters, for ex., and my licensure exam fees. This is what I came for.

A new study shows rents for low-wage Atlanta tenants are rising *9 times* faster than for wealthy renters. The affordability crisis is everywhere: housing, healthcare, food, electricity, survival itself. And the party that won big on "affordability" last week just turned around and surrendered it.

Trump’s regime is manufacturing poverty & food insecurity for political gain, which is a coordinated act of political violence against the people. At this point, ALL state governors need to decide; are you an accomplice to this violence? Or will you defend the people against this domestic threat?

You can cook food for your neighbors. Set a free pantry box outside of your place. Pool money with your coworkers if someone at work has young kids or an elderly relative that likely has SNAP. You don’t have to pry into people’s business, you can just do things & make it known help is available.

Alarming criminalization of green card holder based on "Antifa Materials" - another attempt to silence dissent and target people critical of this administration Release Des and the Prairieland Defendants!

Transformative visions for green industrial policy in the Global South are, unfortunately, impossible without a redesign of today's international financial architecture (IFA).

oh this has been noted by chicago residents

You think one mainstream Dem mentioned abolishing ICE when we started calling for it!? Six years ago.

John Fetterman, Chuck Schumer. These are your Democrats. Spineless. As they have been for decades.

Finally, a John Fetterman diss track.

This is what Zohran Mamdani is inheriting

“thrown into the air” NYPD cops swerved *into* a Black man on a scooter, and then tried to blame him… until the video dropped

From 👮‍♂️ Eric Adams to 🚙-less Muslim Zohran Mamdani, who’s so anti-Semitic he saved an historical Yiddish bookstore… Yeah, in a New York Minute, everything can change — well, except the built-in police state

The *real* story of Black Lives Matter Based off my interview with Dr. Melina Abdullah, original BLM founding member and co-founder of BLM-LA and @blmgrassroots.bsky.social My first for @counterpunchmedia.bsky.social www.counterpunch.org/2025/06/15/h...

2 in 3 Americans are “one paycheck away from homelessness” And in Utah they’re building a concentration camp for unhoused people Modeled after Alligator Auschwitz and serving as a test case for the criminalization and disappearance of poverty Caused by the very same government that ended SNAP.
