Texas' only licensed Hindi, Punjabi, and Urdu legal interpreter is now languishing in a Raymondville detention center. She’s lived in America for 35 years: www.texasobserver.org/immigration-...

An 86-year-old French woman who moved to the US to marry her 1950s sweetheart is being held in a crowded detention centre in Louisiana after she was arrested by immigration agents and cuffed by her hands and feet.

Dear god. Very, very serious allegations of mass civil rights violations at the State of Florida's Everglades immigration detention center (officially known as "Alligator Alcatraz").

I study racism for a living and can still manage to be shocked by how institutionalized it is. What do you mean they were giving tax-breaks to white supremacists celebrating treason? just a wild country

These NY Times oral histories—of what the Trump administration is doing to federal agencies—are a public service. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

It's always good news when fascists lose.

“Tell the world... to keep this energy going. Let's invest in togetherness.” ~Victor Glover, Artemis II crew member

Humanity did that. Science did that. Publicly-funded research did that. Excellent universities did that. Diversity did that. International cooperation did that. Artemis II is a perfect example of what we can do at our best. Welcome home, Integrity crew!

I'm moonscrolling

My husband, repeatedly: “How can they do this? How can it be so precise??” SCIENCE. Publicly funded science.

Splashdown! Vehicle is stable and upright. “A perfect bulls-eye splash for Integrity and its four astronauts!” #Artemis

I've studied so many concentration camps through history that held vulnerable people in just this kind of crowded squalor. You demonize people, you demand more arrests, this is what you get. It already has its own budget and its own momentum, and is on track to go much further, unless we stop it.

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz made an unannounced visit to the Everglades concentration camp where she describes the inhumane conditions she witnessed.

When I spoke to one of my displaced cousins in Beirut today, he said: “Now that Israel isn’t sending its warplanes to bomb Iran, they have a lot of extra time to bomb us”

Massacre upon massacre in Beirut in the last hour. AUBMC announced a “code disaster.” Over 100 airstrikes in 10 minutes across the country. One hit right behind my house. Sirens ambulances & the smell of sulphur. The city is in total chaos the people in complete panic

We didn't deserve this day.

God this poem is haunting me again.

today sure feels like one of the all time ‘so i still just gotta go and do my little job during all this?!’ moments

it's really so beside the point by now, but i cannot believe people gave this psychotic motherfucker a second chance.

The man who coined the term genocide, Raphael Lemkin, defined it as a greater atrocity than mass murder explicitly because it involves the intentional killing of a civilization.

“Parliament had turned over its constitutional authority to Hitler and thereby committed suicide, though its body lingered on in an embalmed state.” Shirer, William L. The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich (p. 331)

The warmongering President of the United States is threatening to commit genocide. Clearly and deliberately put in writing his threat of committing mass atrocities. Congress must act immediately (they are on recess). He must be removed from office now. He must face consequences for his crimes.

Is no elected official even going to move to impeach here?

All of humanity All of us 💙

So, to sum up, a couple of days ago Christina Koch became the first woman to see Earth in its entirety, and today – right now, in fact – she is the first woman to see the Moon up close, and the first woman to see the far side. 🥹

The Artemis II crew have now traveled farther into space than any other human

I was not prepared to see astronauts crying and hugging in space as they remember their friend and colleague’s late wife. 😭

👨‍🚀 The #Artemis II crew are now further from home than any humans ever, and European engines brought them there 🚀. 🌍 The record of 400 171 km was previously held by the Apollo 13 mission 🌕.

“Copy Moon joy” #Artemis

Saw diesel at $8.19 per gallon several times today while driving on Geary Blvd, in the Inner Richmond, in SF. We were exclaiming about it while at a stoplight!

Changes to SNAP from the horrible H.R. 1 bill just went into effect April 1. Many people most in need - literal refugees, asylees, Iraqi & Afghan SIVs, victims of trafficking, & others - were cut off of SNAP. And now Food Banks already under enormous strain, are struggling or unable to stay open.

What in the actual fuck was that

The fact that Trump is going to oral arguments to pressure the justices to acquiesce to his attempted nullification of a constitutional amendment and create a stateless class for the first time since the civil war, illustrates what is really at the core of the Trump project and it isn’t tariffs.

This list of people they want to punish is a damning testament to the complete collapse of moral virtue in American society

Some good protest signs today at #NoKings

I was at No Kings today and I thought it was really great, sorry if I lose my leftist historian street cred for that

Sandra Wong, the great-granddaughter of Wong Kim Ark, in San Francisco today 👇🏽 bsky.app/profile/asam... #NoKings

if nothing else, there is something to be said for spending time outside in the sun with thousands of people who share your anger at the state of things

No ICE. No war. No Kings. #nokings

We are estimating more than 200,000 people at the flagship No Kings rally in the Twin Cities. #NoKings

I counted nearly 1700 protesters in Franklin, TN. Which is, uh, not exactly a hotbed of left-wing progressivism. #NoKings

This photo by our @ashleymurray.bsky.social for @statesnewsroom.com shows the crowds that were packed around the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in DC even before noon on Saturday #NoKings

Atlanta is showing up to say no ICE, no war, No Kings. #NoKings

A photo from earlier today, at the start of the No Kings march from near Arlington Cemetery, just before demonstrators moved onto the Memorial Bridge.

Monday - Send more troops Tuesday - Say we’re ending war Wednesday - Send more troops Thursday - Say ending war Friday - Send more troops Saturday - Golf Sunday - Golf

Please read this thread 🧵 about the horrible reality on the ground in Beirut, Lebanon, which is being terrorized by Israel. Hang in there Justin. ❤️
