Last night after millions of workers marched around the world, we held a vigil in San Jose with our partners to honor and remember the immigrant workers who have been disappeared because of their precarious status or been attacked for using their right to speak up on behalf of those who cannot.🧵

Here's a project I worked on with my spectacular @alaskapublic.org colleagues: 10 ways Trump has changed Alaska in 100 days alaskapublic.org/news/politic...

America is now deporting children with cancer. This is what white supremacy does to a nation.

There are a ton of great movies and TV shows out right now, many of them super relevant to the, uh… *unique* US political climate. Like Andor, which is showing some teeth in a second season that’s a vivid metaphor for America’s descent into authoritarianism.

Pavva Inupiak dance group showing support for Fairbanks Ak rally for democracy in Saturday, April 19!

Love the chant!

Due process is firmly enshrined in the constitution. It means the government must give you notice & an opportunity to be heard BEFORE divesting you of your liberty or property—every time. There are no qualifiers. There are no terms & conditions. There are no exceptions for “illegals” or “bad guys.”

@wajali.bsky.social @hcrichardson.bsky.social I live in Cordova, Alaska, a small fishing town in Prince William Sound. Your interview this week inspired my April 19 protest sign! #NoKings (Wish I was a better artist😊)

Cordova, Alaska “NO KINGS” rally! Lovely weather, yummy cookies, postcard writing, and most of all —community. @50501movement.bsky.social #NoKings #Alaska #HandsOff

"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps. This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped" snyder.substack.com/p/state-terror

Entering the world post-college is already a challenging transition. This major government upheaval is cruel

Recent cuts to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services could end programs that are “critical” for commercial fishing safety in Alaska, according to the Alaska Marine Safety Education Association.

This would be hard to explain if you had a time machine to visit 2010

Protests aren’t the only tool in the anti-authoritarian toolkit, but they’re incredibly important. Protests help us see each other; they make it feel safer to refuse to obey the dictator, and make it more possible for us to organize mass non-cooperation. It’s an essential step in the process.

#HandsOff Cordova, Alaska 😍😍😍

#HandsOff Cordova, Alaska!

This is my favorite sign so far

So proud of American Resisters today! #Handsoff

Cordova, Alaska had about 115 people marching in the wind and rain! Afterwards we had a postcard writing session for folks to share their concerns with our congressional delegation. #handsoff

Goddamn Woke SJW Journal won't stay with the program anymore.

Declare martial law, cancel elections, control power. That's one way. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Because of the pay gap, women have lost out on more than $60 trillion in wages since 1967. Yes, trillion. On an hourly basis, women were paid 18.0% less on average than men in 2024. We must ensure fair wages for all.

not all heroes wear capes

The system is propped up by a political economy that creates a class of disposable person: people on the margins, deprived of power over their own lives.

It’s hard to overstate the rank greed at play here. What we’re witnessing is sociopathic indifference & disregard for humanity & social norms. All they care about is dismantling the regulatory state so they can self-deal with impunity. Anything else that happens (good or bad) is random & collateral.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share. snyder.substack.com/p/five-failu...

The thing about Alaska is that (most) people look out for each other. If our neighbor is hurting, we help, no matter what. We need one another to survive and our state legislators know this. It might be the only thing that keeps me hopeful in this red state. alaskahousemajority.com/docs/Alaska_...

Donna Arduin, former budget director to Gov. Mike Dunleavy, is leaving Alaska to become chief financial officer at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C.

Trump and Vance act as if the problem is that Ukraine is resisting an ongoing Russian invasion. The problem is the ongoing Russian invasion. If they want to use American power to stop the war, apply it to the aggressor. Abusing the victim is not going to end a war of aggression.

Good for him.

Legislative leaders wrote to Alaska’s congressional delegation, urging them to block deep cuts to federal programs they say would “endanger the economic prosperity and social well-being of Alaskans.”

Great piece by @clarajeffery.bsky.social comparing the burgeoning anti-Tesla/Musk movement with the anti-apartheid movement of the 70s/80s. And not just because of Musk's South African roots. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I’m somehow on a Heritage Foundation mailing list (😂) and they sent a survey to see what we think of DOGE. Who wants to offer some m-fing feedback?!? secured.heritage.org/the-heritage... Please share with a friend or a thousand :)

I said it in March 2020 and I’ll say it again: R’s will kill us—one way or another. It really is their end game.

Veterans gave it all for this country, but Trump and Musk just fired nearly 6,000 of them. And where are the House Republicans? . . . Selling out our Veterans to billionaires!!!

Greene: Those are not real jobs producing federal revenue. Federal employees do not deserve their jobs. Federal employees do not deserve their paycheck

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

Hi, hello. In order to grasp the significance of Trump crowning himself a King, you have to understand that he is literally carrying out a plan crafted by Curtis Yarvin, a right wing extremist, to overthrow democracy and replace it with dictatorial rule by a monarch-CEO.

2/17/2025 March for Democracy Cordova, Alaska ~100 people and lots of dogs. @indivisible.org @50501movement.bsky.social @lindsaymeyerharley.bsky.social @lisamurkowski.bsky.social

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

In my city there is one cybertruck and one DIY parody of a cybertruck and the parody truck has become a local celebrity. Meanwhile, I always wish I had some rotten eggs to throw at the tesla whenever I see it.

This. Especially Senate Republicans.
