Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

“At the morgue, the babies were brought in with their diapers and blankets and with their hospital ID bracelets still wrapped around their tiny ankles. The pathologists’ findings were like those you would typically see in ailing adults, not newborns.” @deldeib.bsky.social

The science is overwhelming: greenhouse gas emissions drive climate change. That’s why we challenged the EPA’s proposed rescission of the finding that vehicle greenhouse gas emissions endanger public health and the environment. #EarthDay Read more: https://ow.ly/GVjr50YO6RO

The editorial cartoonist's pen is one of the sharpest tools in journalism, whittling issues down to basics for satire or rage. I'm proud to say that my long-ago colleague, Milt Priggee, is unafraid to shock with a tough point of view.

The corruption in the Trump administration is happening all day every day. www.mining.com/trump-sons-i...

Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

The cruelty is the point.

🚨 BBC has examined trade volume data on several financial markets & matched them to some of Trump’s most significant market-moving statements. It found a consistent pattern of spikes just hours, or sometimes minutes, before a SM post or media interview was made public. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

For those interested, here’s a link to News Center Maine’s (Phil Hirschkorn’s) profile of my candidacy for the US Senate. Brief overview at the top and more in-depth questions and answers video at the bottom following the text... www.newscentermaine.com/article/news...

If there are any Democrats who are thinking of running for the presidency on 2028 on anything less than a clear agenda of widespread prosecution for this administration's corruption and fundamental structural changes to ensure it can't happen again, they should just stop right there.

As Mother Jones originally reported, Taylor Cadle was 12 years old in 2016 when she told a sheriff’s deputy that she had been sexually abused by her adoptive father, Henry Cadle. Instead of arresting the abuser, Deputy Melissa Turnage charged Taylor with filing a false police report.

Dreaming of American media having the spine to do this.

‘Blasphemy’: outrage after Trump posts AI image of himself as Christ-like figure

The corruption is disgusting.

Prosecutors Still Trying To Convict 62-Year-Old Woman For Wearing Penis Costume To Anti-Trump Protest Never underestimate the stupidity of law enforcement. When things could just be left alone and everything would turn out OK, officers insist on inserting themselves into the equation, ensuring…

The GOP is the Party of Law and Order, right?

Lock his plague rat ass up

Call me crazy, but we shouldn't have to wake up every day trying to figure out if the president of the United States is trying to manipulate the market or start a nuclear war.

With Pam Bondi’s ouster, Todd Blanche is now the interim AG. Here’s our story on him from December: Todd Blanche Shut Down Crypto Enforcement While Holding Crypto Assets

The death of a nearly blind refugee from Myanmar who was found on a Buffalo street in February — five days after Border Patrol agents left him at a doughnut shop — has been ruled a homicide, authorities said Wednesday. https://to.pbs.org/3NZGHsz

A 3-year study published in Pediatrics examined newborns in Norway. It found a clear benefit for the baby when mom gets a COVID vaccination during pregnancy. n.pr/4uXOx6X

The internet is a safe haven and an academy for men who hate women.

🚨CA Beware🚨 Chad Bianco, a Riverside sheriff, is running for CA Governor. He's a "former😒" Oath Keeper. Do not let him past the primaries www.npr.org/2021/10/06/1...

HOLY SHIT. A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election. Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?

They're a death cult

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.

Don't let your eyes fool you; this is exactly what it looks like... a modern-day American Gestapo. The USA is an absolute disgrace of a country.

For years, the FDA website warned of products and remedies claiming to treat autism that were being marketed deceptively and can be harmful. Just a few: •hyperbaric oxygen therapies •chlorine dioxide •raw camel milk. Now, under RFK Jr, that advisory is gone. New, @megomatz.bsky.social

What is it going to take, MAGA? "So grave is the scale of these atrocities that they may meet the criteria of crimes against humanity. The experts said inquiries should also be launched into how it was possible for such crimes to be committed for so long." #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

We cop out at our own risk.

I've shared this quote before but I'll share it again, as it's one I've been thinking about a lot as I've watched how our oligarchs have been behaving over the past few months.

👀Now that ICE/DHS are planning to buy ‘mega’ warehouse detention centers across the US to house human beings you might want to listen to this gentleman’s history lesson that he delivered at a city council meeting in AZ. Congress needs to have hearings on this like yesterday.

“You are not entitled to a response from us, or anyone, ever,” is what an Education Department spokesperson wrote to one of our reporters, @megomatz.bsky.social, after she repeatedly tried to get comment from the department and its officials. (Published Dec. 2025)

Independent journalist Georgia Fort was also arrested by federal agents earlier for reporting on the church protest in Minneapolis. She was live streaming when agents arrived to take her into custody.

In theater!?

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him. The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

One thing that irks me: people keep calling the folks on the streets in Minneapolis protestors. They are not generally there to protest, they are there to observe and document. This is the product of organizing and mutual aid. It is telling that these acts of citizenship are seen as protest!
