When the White House defends Trump calling a female reporter “piggy,” it’s more than rude. It’s a classic authoritarian tactic: publicly humiliating and attacking someone to assert power, intimidate critics, and signal who is “in charge.”

After years of scorched-earth union-busting and stonewalling tactics by their bosses, Starbucks workers are trying to get their union drive and contract negotiations unstuck through a nationwide strike.

Today is just one long demonstration of the One Special Boy virus that has consumed our polity. Immediate presidency-ending stuff for anyone else from at least Truman to Biden. We're not even pretending to care about the law or the Constitution or any of the norms or duct tape anymore.

I’m still thinking about “quiet, piggy.” No president should be able to speak to a member of the press that way and remain president. That moment encapsulates how vile, misogynistic, and horrible that man is.

Federal agents wearing tactical gear used chemical irritants on protesters at the Bro-Tex facility in St. Paul. Video by reporter Louis Krauss, who is on the scene.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi. I hired and worked with Jamal for a year. www.washingtonpost.com/world/nation...

a journalist asked a question about a fellow murdered journalist and there is simply no way to read Trump's response as anything other than a threat

not exaggerating when I say that this should be grounds for impeachment. it's not a crime, but it is I think a "high misdemeanor"; a flagrant abuse of office demonstrating sweeping contempt for the first amendment and the American people.

"The Intercept is publishing a strike tracker documenting America's newest war." Number of Strikes: 21 Total Killed: 83 Total Captured: 2 #USA #Venezuela #Water #Drugs #Military

Baristas are on strike. So guess what? Starbucks doesn’t get a dime. We support workers, not the billionaire brewing union-busting on the side. Repost to spread word!!! #NoContractNoCoffee

don't let Mayor Johnson's masterful answer to a dumb question get lost in the shuffle: "we don't have 'illegal aliens.' is that some sci-fi show? legal term for my people was 'slave'—you want me to use that?" @mayorofchicago.bsky.social #MustWatch

This is a very big deal. The distinction opens up a range of surveillance options for the regime that are technically lawful under the right circumstances.

Prop 13 has existed for my whole life in California and I cannot overstate just how bad it is for my state. DO NOT DO THIS!

Here is a much better take on the situation from @mskellymhayes.bsky.social: organizingmythoughts.org/what-now-chi...

Good morning from DAY FIVE of our national ULP strike! We're ready to escalate if we don’t see substantial progress toward finalizing contracts that address pay, hours/staffing & the resolution of 100s of ULPs. RT if you're with us ✊🔥 #NoContractNoCoffee

I refuse to believe politicians are forgetting how rancid MTG is. Sure we can have a big tent but we do not need to welcome someone like her. Please everyone get a fucking hold of yourselves.

"... please trust us now when we say that what is happening in the Chicago area is wrong. It is not law enforcement; it is terror.” The biggest names in Chicago broadcast news condemn the violent attack on the city they love. I talked to the author, Phil Ponce. open.substack.com/pub/jennifer...

All of the societal effort that goes into making the wealthy happy is like if every year 50% of the money generated in Canada went towards teaching thousands of dogs to become cardiothoracic surgeons. It's not going to happen, it hardly creates any jobs, and it's fucking up the dogs.

Protesters have gathered in Uptown Charlotte to speak out against Border Patrol earlier today.

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Hundreds of thousands of deaths have already occurred as a result of the Trump administration's dismantling of USAID.

An assumption underlying all climate groups I operate with is that we can effectively make use of the global information system to affect change. That assumption needs updating. Folks like me who are doing non-violent direct actions need to also put energy into transforming the info/media system.

This man, Rev. Michael Woolf, wrote this for us earlier this month: "It is up to us to keep our communities safe from this terror, and scripture tells us that God will meet us there—at the picket line, amid the tear gas." sojo.net/articles/opi...

Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:

They’re all just looting the treasury now

There is ZERO reason for this aside from cruelty. Shame on the Illinois State Police. You should be protecting the people. @govpritzker.illinois.gov WTF IS THIS. #Broadview #Chicago #Protest #FuckICE

Priests being arrested

They should invent a government that isn’t senile pedophile adolf hitler

Yesterday, I pleaded not guilty to the charges that Trump’s DOJ has hit me with in federal court. This administration is targeting me because they can see that I’ve spoken out against them and will continue to stand up to them.

Don’t break the picket line!

New: Google has chosen a side in Trump's mass deportation campaign. Google is hosting a CBP facial recognition app to hunt immigrants; no indication Google will remove. At same time Google takes down apps for reporting ICE sightings “Big tech has made their choice” www.404media.co/google-has-c...

All the Epstein emails are powerful elites saying shit like “Hello my friend the pedophile, i need your advice as a pedophile, what do you think about this other pedophile? Pedophilic Regards, your Friend ;)” and instead of swinging from a gibbet most of them are still writing op-eds against leftism

Protest comes as Brazil's leader Lula says COP30 participants should be 'inspired' by Indigenous peoples.

Painful. An opportunity to rethink flying? Frequent jet travel is incompatible w/ a livable world. Jet emissions are rising fast, permanently worsening Earth’s climate. Most flying is done by a wealthy % of humanity. Most flying is unnecessary. Pledge to fly less: @flightfreeusa.bsky.social

I keep seeing regular Americans taking more risks every day to fight tyranny, want, and cynicism than I see from the opposition party, and I imagine many of those regular Americans are asking themselves what the value proposition of such an opposition party is, really

even when the democratic party has leverage and one of the craziest election swings the party intentionally self immolates it’s just so exhausting what is even the point of these people

It’s not just Schumer. The Dems job is to cave, come up one vote short, get blocked by the parlementarian, mired in committee, etc It’s why large Corps, billionaires & foreign countries fund thrm. If they didn’t cave, lose, come up short the Corps/billionaires wouldn’t give them a dime.

If you divided up Elon's trillion dollar incentive and gave it to people in need, you could give: Every SNAP recipient $23,809 Everyone using the ACA marketplace $41,152 Every federal worker $333,333 People in need won't get it. Let's make sure Elon doesn't either. #NoTrillionaires #teslatakedown

“The regime wants all of us afraid. It is counting on fear immobilizing us and perhaps even turning us against each other. Instead, what we are currently seeing in Chicago is that solidarity can overcome fear and can give people the courage and tenacity to fight for each other.” --Mariame Kaba

Occurred to me tonight that the good things that Mike Judge created (that I really loved) are becoming to painful to watch with time, as America descends into madness. Idiocracy, King of the Hill, Silicon Valley…

This Administration says there’s no money to feed hungry kids, but: • Billions for a new war in Nigeria • Billions for Argentina • Billions for another war in Venezuela • Millions to blow up boats • Millions for a ballroom Amazing how the budget’s always empty when it comes to feeding the poor.
