Free Press' @jgo4justice.bsky.social is with Jane Fonda and the Committee for the First Amendment to break down how media capitulation has a chilling effect on media independence and creativity. Watch the full conversation between Jane and Jessica: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXWJ...

"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little." -FDR, 1937

Colorado is off to an important start with its AI Act, which protects us from automated decision-making. Now that state should strengthen its law, and other states should enact their own laws. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

the thing about the roblox interview is that he's more or less just saying out loud what every social media & gacha CEO has been doing for the last 10+ years. selling kids gambling with the minimal legally allowed guardrails is hot profits rn

Opting out of your Google emails being used to train their AI also happens to remove spam filtering. This seems designed to punish users who opt out

Who voted for this?

Hundreds of Starbucks baristas and labor organizers blockaded Starbucks' largest distribution center in York, Pennsylvania, halting distribution of syrups, coffee beans, and other supplies to the entire northeast. This escalation is part of @sbworkersunited.org's ongoing strike.

fell to my knees

Zohran Mamdani doesn’t make me, an American Jew, feel unsafe. Having the Coast Guard, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, decide that a swastika isn’t really a symbol of hate? That makes me, an American Jew, feel pretty damn unsafe.

We look to have a picture of Brennan under the goblet tonight. #Campaign4 #Araman #CriticalRole #SamRiegel #CriticalRoleSpoilers

Confirmed: The people of D.C. deserve to be free from presidential overreach and troops on their streets.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone. Don't fall for it.

It's no secret that 2025 has given Americans plenty to protest about. But as news cameras showed protesters filling streets of cities across the country, cops were watching those streets through different lenses: Flock Safety license plate readers that tracked every car. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

This goes for all Democrats.

ICE’s Detention Center outside Chicago was sued on October 30 for allegedly abusing detainees. One day later, a "system crash" lost all video footage that could have shown how detainees were being treated. trib.al/QwT3aqI

Trump has reportedly been in conversation with Paramount and his billionaire ally Larry Ellison about a potential takeover of CNN that would include firing journalists he dislikes. Billionaire control of the media is a danger to us all.

How exactly does a kids online safety bill threaten queer and trans culture on the internet? Harvard Cyberlaw expert @esqueer.net breaks it down. #KOSA #Censorship #Boston @warren.senate.gov @edmarkey.bsky.social

They lied about it. All of it. A thug cop shot an unarmed woman five times without justification, boasted about it to his colleagues, and then this administration tried cover it all up by arresting her and charging her with felonies.

I wonder what *would* qualify as a hate symbol…

Meanwhile, AI music startups will continue to vacuum up and exploit the music made by those of us without record labels

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

We should NOT be selling weapons to one of the worst human rights abusers in the world. This should be a no-brainer. MBS should be held responsible for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi — not welcomed at the White House to celebrate a multibillion-dollar arms package deal.

Every single day ICE agents are threatening people and terrorizing communities. We’ve seen ICE pepper spray babies, disappear US citizens, slam distraught mothers and fathers to the ground—now they’re terrorizing St. Paul. ICE is out of control and should be abolished.

🔴 Scolding a U.S. reporter for asking questions about MBS ordering a fellow journalist to be bonesawed to death signals to dictators everywhere that they can murder journalists with impunity. Read our full statement below:

The facilities suck up land, water, and power—driving up prices for all—and many locals are fed up. The latest from our friends at @wired.com:

For Chrissake when I was 12 they tried to keep Dungeons & Dragons out of school.

Thank God we’re not unnecessarily jamming this into schools full of millions of vulnerable, emotionally pliable children. *touches ear* Wait, I’m getting an update —

And here is the original ProPublica version www.propublica.org/article/andr...

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered. He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here : www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/glo...

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk? But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession. But that's just me

So you mistakenly dismembered a journalist?

Another woman killed by an abortion ban.

I like how this entire story is basically just quotes from VCs and tech companies. They couldn't be bothered to ask any objective academics or economists what our ongoing failure to have literally ANY functional antitrust enforcement means

"Microsoft warns that Windows 11's agentic AI could install malware on your PC: 'Only enable this feature if you understand the security implications.'" bro what-- what are we doing here, exactly, how can you--anyone be okay with this?

To the reporters that had no pushback against Trump for calling one of their own "Piggy", then later offering no pushback when Trump defended the man who orchestrated the murder and dismemberment of one of their own, I hope selling your integrity for access was worth it.

383 clinical trials for things like COVID-19, cancer, heart disease, and brain disease have lost funding due to NIH cuts. We could very well lose out on treatments or cures for deadly diseases because Trump needed money for billionaire tax breaks. This is what's at stake.

We are boycotting Target because the company went back on its commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. If the company wants to bring customers back, they should bring back DEI programs. Doing everything BUT the right thing.

I’ve been a FreeTaxUSA proselytizer for years and years and I strongly encourage everyone to make the switch. same kind of step by step “for dummies” interface, even for my complicated freelancer taxes, and you don’t have to give your money to one of our most evil lobbyists

If approved, the Nexstar-Tenga merger would combine the nation's largest television-station conglomerate with its fourth largest. The deal also would violate the FCC's few remaining local-ownership limits in approximately 30 markets. Our statement:

@edmarkey.bsky.social @warren.senate.gov are you listening?

It is #Wednesday my DOOMBOTS.

Maybe we shouldn't call it giving away money when billionaires give it to themselves.

The stakes are too high to wait: we need to impeach Trump now. I’ll be speaking at the Remove the Regime rally in Washington, DC this Saturday. I hope to see you there! @flareusa.bsky.social @removalcoalition.bsky.social

The billionaires in the Epstein files? They just got a huge tax break from the same people who shielded them from being named. Our entire economy has been warped to make them richer at our expense. We need to know who's in the files and how they've rigged our system. Period.

“The makers of AI…want to build a genie to grant them wishes, and their wish is that nobody ever has to make art again. They want to create a new kind of mind, so they can force it into mindless servitude. Their dream is to invent new forms of life to enslave.”
