Resistance to authoritarianism requires presenting a morally grounded alternative. wearethelight.us

Shocking news that is not getting out: the Justice Department’s civil rights office has refused to investigate the killing of Renee Good by ICE agent Jonathan Ross. This is a huge deal because this is the unit that investigates and prosecutes law enforcement misconduct. youtube.com/shorts/44an_...

This is a cool video. I think you should watch it and share it with people. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQPO...

Anderson Cooper sharing some good stuff on NYE.

Omens.

Thousands of you shared heartbreaking and maddening stories with me about rising health care costs. But the fight is far from over. If you're willing to record your story, we can make sure GOP lawmakers see and hear the direct impact of their policy failures: wintheera.myctbl.com/share-your-s...

I love Rebecca DOWN. Known as Dollar Tree Dinners. Her “Meal in a Bag” is meant to provide ppl with a complete meal that is $8 or less, is shelf stable, & can be made without access to a full kitchen. I love this as a direct aid option. Good for neighbors & elders who can’t/wont go to a pantry.

The White House has fired all six members of the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts, the independent federal agency that reviews design plans for monuments, memorials, coins and federal buildings. n.pr/4ntG3PR

Good morning. We are open. 📖☕️

I obtained ~dozens of hours~ of previously unreported recordings of Russ Vought's briefings from 2021 to 2024. Want to hear the recordings yourself? Watch @propublica.org's new mini-documentary about Vought 👇 THE SHADOW PRESIDENT www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1Lu...

This is amazing!!

I'll leave you from Portland with one last video of the @unpresidentedbrass.bsky.social, the unofficial house band of #NoKings

OK guys, post your best signs from today for entry into my Top 15 No Kings Sign Contest.

We need more of this, and from more people. Rolling your eyes as if to say "We all know how they are" (or worse, "Don't get distracted") has been a big strategic mistake. Democratic politicians have to meet the brutality of MAGA rhetoric with outrage--and then, when necessary, match it.

whoever did this little bit of magnificence, take a bow

Meryl Streep, honoring Keaton at AFI: “She’s given us all so. Much. Happiness.” #RIP 🙏🏼

When a Guardian reporter pointed out on social media that the image was not a genuine photograph of the generally small and tame protests outside the Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office in Portland, the Oregon Republican Party’s X account replied: “We’re not reporters, just bad memers.”

this looks great

This is a lovely meassage to all of us with a call out to some.

Some perspective: The ACA part of the shutdown fight is a little less than 0.1% of GDP. Or ~0.5% of the federal budget. It's in same ballpark as cost of Trump's estate tax cut. It's much less than Elon Musk's potential $1 trillion compensation package.

$200k to hang out with dogs. amazing IG gabriel.desanti, barkandburn

This explains a lot. For a moment, I wondered why they'd do something as ridiculous as drop agents on the roof of the apartment building from helicopters, but of course, they did it for this footage. The same reason they were marching in formation downtown and snatched a family in Millennium Park.

Everyone should listen to Chris Murphy's extraordinary warning about Trump on our pod. First, he says the logic must be that the more lawless he gets, the stiffer the resistance. "If I give in and consent to these kinds of tactics then it just normalizes it all." 1/ newrepublic.com/article/2013...

DOKOUPIL: Republicans says what you're really fighting for is taxpayer dollars for illegal aliens. I know that's not strictly true-- ELIZABETH WARREN: Excuse me, not strictly true? It is a flat out lie!

Trump's CEA is circulating its estimate of the economic cost of the government shutdown. But, BREAKING: It's wrong. It makes a simple arithmetic error. And it's dishonest. Surprising, I know. 🧵

Pause your doomscrolling and listen to this story.

"First announced on June 23, 2025, Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins is eliminating protections for nearly 40 million acres of national forests conserved as “roadless areas,” opening some of the most ecologically intact forests in the country to industrial development."

Kimmel: “This show is not important. What is important is that we get to live in a country that allows us to have a show like this."

Please send us a text if you believe you have further evidence of this specific agent assaulting folks (not just yesterday, but any time over last few weeks) 📱

had to read the article to understand wtf was going on here which is that Meta is literally feeding Instagram pictures parents took of their teenage daughters to middle aged men as ads for Threads

The latest from @gwynnefitz.bsky.social: www.thecity.nyc/2025/09/18/d...

They took away a woman’s right to choose Then they took equity from Black people Medicaid benefits from people of limited means Food from schoolchildren The right of Hispanic people to live without fear of persecution And now they want to take our First Amendment rights WE MUST FIGHT BACK

Amazing energy at the @disneystudios.bsky.social protest today! They chose fascism and so did @abcstudio.bsky.social. Cancel your Hulu, Disney+ and ESPN please!

It's a double #nicenews day cuz how could we NOT talk about Hercules and Ned who patrol a West Virginia airport and keep it safe by chasing away birds. And let's talk about how cool they look in their doogles! Stunning, smart and hard-working. A triple threat! 😊

Our democracy is not self-executing. It depends on us all as citizens, regardless of our political affiliations, to stand up and fight for the core values that have made this country the envy of the world.

Beto O'Rourke is a hero and a fighter, in the worst state for voter suppression. Exactly what's needed right now. youtube.com/watch?v=nFzU...

25 to 30 projections and no arrests. "We projected a piece of journalism on to a wall and now people have been arrested for malicious communications. I think that, frankly, says a lot more about the policing of Trump’s visit than it does about what we did.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Robert Redford was one of the foremost actors of his generation, a champion of modern cinema and independent film, and a deeply good man.

Your enemy isn't across, your enemy is up. m.youtube.com/shorts/y7v9Z...

Again: The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left." It’s between democracy and oligarchy. The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power. (@taxgreed.bsky.social)
