The Fourteenth Amendment, written in the blood of the Civil War, says in Section 4 that this is blatantly illegal: “[N]either the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States.”

Rep. @brotherjones.bsky.social in Montgomery: “We’re here united to take on this new confederacy, 60 years after the Selma March… because we know their intent is to dismantle everything gained during the civil rights movement.”

‼️THE SOUTH WILL NOT BE SILENCED‼️ Today’s march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge is a reminder that voting rights were paid for in blood. And now those same rights are under attack again. Next: Montgomery #AllRoadsLeadToTheSouth

Thousands are marching in Selma calling for a full restoration of the voting rights act.

The stories & photos from today’s voting rights marches in Alabama deserve to be seen by people who weren’t able to stand there in person. If this piece moves you, please share it widely & help make sure these voices aren’t lost in the noise of a crowded news cycle. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

anyone who says people opposing data centers are just nimbys need to stop echoing industry propaganda and see what it’s actually like to live near one

Look at the women at NASA. They are the ones pushing the boundaries of science, solving problems most people can’t even understand, and carrying this country forward, while our politicians right now posture and stumble through talking points. And they are doing it all with joy.👇

Melania Trump wants these photos and emails to be scrubbed from the Internet. Please stop liking and sharing them. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Meanwhile Prof Tim Snyder is also issuing warnings about the same.

While the McDonald’s CEO gets roasted for his awkward burger taste test... McDonald’s is among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps. And McDonald's CEO recently raked in $18.2M — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay. That should leave a bad taste in your mouth.

The U.S. Senate must be clear: no war with Iran.

Trump starting a war against Iran is perhaps the most unpopular major use of military force in recent memory, as measured by polls taken just after each attack. Eg, support *among Republicans* is lower than overall approval was for invading Iraq www.gelliottmorris.com/p/polls-trum...

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin. Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

NEVER FORGET: Jan. 6 Five Years Later talkingpointsmemo.com/morning-memo...

5 years ago, there was a bloody, lawless, and deadly attack on our nation’s Capitol. A group of criminal thugs broke out in riots and stormed our Capitol in an attempt to overturn the results of a free and fair election at the direction of the President of the United States.

Five years ago today, Donald Trump incited a violent mob to attack the Capitol in a last-ditch effort to cling to power after losing a free and fair election. January 6 was not a protest that got out of hand — it was an attempted coup, carried out in plain sight.

This week, Professor James Hansen and colleagues published projections that the global temperature record could reach +1.7°C by 2027. And if that number lands in your gut the way it landed in mine, good. It should. #climatecrisis #auspol www.lyrebirddreaming.com/post/two-yea...

The Australian government announced a gun buyback plan on Friday following the deadly mass shooting at Sydney's Bondi Beach last weekend.

Beautiful snow day in Vermont! Who knew- our Batten Kill water gap funnels "lake effect snow" from Lake Erie! We're up to about 15" total so far for the last month. About to head out on spikes to soak it all in ..

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Phillis Wheatley, first published African-American female poet, died #OTD in 1784. Born in W. Africa, sold into slavery at 7 & one of the best-known poets in 18th-century America.

Electricity bills are on the rise nationwide—and in the latest @npr.org Short Wave episode, UCS’s Mike Jacobs explains how data centers are passing off their costs onto your utility bills.

They're jealous & know that they couldn't measure up. Not even on their ABSOLUTE best day ever. Why would you feel so threatened by ppl who you claim are inferior to you??? Maga is going to emplode. It's going to be loud, wide, & deadly ... & so satisfying!!! atlantablackstar.com/2025/12/04/t...

while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

Trump is threatening the safety of my colleagues for trying to uphold the rule of law and obey the Constitution.

An asylum-seeker wrongfully deported to CECOT then repatriated to Venezuela may have succumbed to the violence he was fleeing, a federal judge says in a newly unsealed opinion that declines to hold the Trump admin in contempt of court for violating her orders talkingpointsmemo.com/morning-memo...

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

About half of what it was going to cost to fully fund SNAP in November during the shutdown.

So Trump says he has to “bring in” foreign talent because American workers don’t have it. I also notice he says “No YOU don’t have it, instead of WE, Americas President is a literal foreign agent

The U.S. has just emerged from the longest government shutdown in its history — a period of deep uncertainty that put science, safety, and resilience at risk. 🧵
