It's incredibly normal to feel uncomfortable being near people who are different from you. And your job as a human being is to feel a little ashamed of that, grow the fuck up, and get over it.

Data shows wealthiest 0.1% of the US burn carbon at 4,000 times the rate of the world’s poorest 10% www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Once again my hometown newspaper @inquirer.com shows why it's one of the few US papers out there still reporting on the news and holding the government to account, unlike the @washingtonpost.com and @nytimes.com which have become apologists for the Trump regime

The new notice comes after the Trump administration said it would not tap roughly $5 billion in contingency funds to keep benefits through SNAP flowing into November. That program helps about 1 in 8 Americans buy groceries.

A new Harvard study shows that 2025 protests are likely the most geographically widespread in US history.

Gallego: "How can I negotiate? The president is in Asia for 5 days. Johnson is basically keeping the House out until January to protect pedophiles. So who am I negotiating with right now?"

We’re giving $40 billion to Argentina. This is $5 billion MORE that the entire USAID budget that DOGE cut.

In a nearly illiterate editorial, WaPo defends Trump's ballroom project, without revealing the fact that the paper's owner, Jeff Bezos, is a principal funder of the project. Shameful conduct all around. bsky.app/profile/bgru...

When ICE comes to Philly it’s going to be brutal

ordinary americans are filming ice agents and trying to save their neighbors. for all the hemming and hawing during 2024 about how democracy was an elite concern, the elites gave up far more quickly than average people.

NEW: The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced Friday that it will send election monitors to polling sites in California and New Jersey — a move that Democrats and democracy advocates warned may be a potential step toward the Trump administration seizing control of voting.

This is a U.S. citizen being brutally abducted by ICE while his mom pleads for them to stop and the videographer cries for help. The Chicago police do nothing to stop it. They will come for everyone, and they’re not even hiding that anymore. If you are not organizing and resisting yet, get started.

Almost every major news story this week is about how the entire economy is now gambling, scams, bribes and theft.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube. Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X). *1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.” youtu.be/5t5QK03KXPc

Carney: But this decades-long process of an ever-closer economic relationship with the United States is now over. And as a consequence, many of our former strengths as a country—more particularly, our economic strengths based on close ties to America—have now become our vulnerabilities…

Physical climate threats are driving up capital costs for exposed firms, with emerging markets and heavy industry currently facing the steepest premiums => Firms with 10 pp higher asset damage rates from climate hazards face additional 22 pp in their average cost of capital

Just now: Responding to news that a January 6th rioter pardoned by Trump was arrested after allegedly threatening to kill @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, @raskin.house.gov challenged all of the pardons, noting others have also since committed subsequent crimes. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Those with sharp eyes might detect a subtle difference in NYT play last month of an event in one city, w 100,000+ attendees, versus play this morning of some 2500+ events w many millions of attendees, in all 50 states. See if you can spot it! /s Then you can find today's story on p A23

What could be worse than screaming at a Capitol police officer?

Honestly we’d struggle to find a more incompetent @teamlabouruk.bsky.social if we tried. I can’t believe I voted for this level of stupidity and incompetence

Good morning, We start today with a message from the frog resistance. Stay weird Portland 💚

When they tell you they plan on throwing out the constitution, believe them.

Pope Leo Calls on U.S. Bishops to stand up for migrants rights my latest...

George was just trying to get to work. ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process. This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

This is a federal agent pointing a weapon at a person recording them. ICE has become Trump’s personal military that he is using to terrorize communities and cities that don’t support him. And some say we shouldn’t call him a fascist? Open your eyes.

The majority of heat related deaths in European cities this summer were caused by climate change. These figures should terrify us. This shows us that heat plans not enough – we need strong EU climate targets to cut the emissions causing this dangerous heat. www.imperial.ac.uk/grantham/pub...

Brett Kavanaugh: “The Govt sometimes makes brief investigative stops …”

"The incremental U.S. fossil-fuel profits in 2022 relative to 2021 were enough to increase the disposable income of the wealthiest Americans by several percent and compensate a substantial part of their purchasing power loss from inflation that year, thereby exacerbating inflation inequality. "

She was arrested for holding a sign reading: “I do not support the proscription of Palestine Action” How that would warrant arrest is very unclear. I wonder if the police here even understand the boundaries of the bizarre law they’ve been forced to enforce.

Katharine Graham must be rolling in her grave

Pope Leo urged the world's 1.4 billion Catholics on Sunday to care for immigrants, pressing ahead with a message of welcome for migrants days after criticizing U.S. President Donald Trump's hard-line anti-immigration policies. For @reuters.com:

Violent thugs are terrorizing Americans and they were sent by the White House.
