Israel has killed 249 journalists in the last 2 years. That's more than were killed in WWII & the Vietnam War put together. A Vermonter, Dylan Collins, was wounded in one of these attacks, which killed another reporter. This war against journalists must be investigated & ended.

…… AND THE LIES CONTINUE! Next episode please!

Trump is very old, very weak and very confused. The Regime is filled with all the wrong people to be led by a ghost puppet President. Let's talk about it. Coffee With Texas Paul goes live at 11 am Eastern. Hope you can be in the live chat!

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running. This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.

If you haven't read this book, or it has been a while since you read this book, it is worth reading. It is scarry how close it parallels much of what is happening today. Fascism hasn't changed much over the years. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It_Can'...

Thinking this is wrong isn’t radical. Thinking it isn’t is.

@thenerdreich.com.web.brid.gy If you haven't see Gil Doran's reporting on the Network States, it is worth looking into. People like Peter Theil and Mark Andreesen are too powerful to ignore.

NEW: Federally funded community health centers receive grants in exchange for serving patients regardless of their ability to pay. But ProPublica found at least five across the country filing lawsuits and garnishing paychecks to collect unpaid bills.

I am not an alpha male or a beta male. I am a grandpa. I will happily wear makeup if my granddaughter wants to play beautician, I will wear a tutu if she wants to play ballet, and sing silly songs if it makes her laugh. There is no greater sound than hearing, "grandpa is here" when I arrive. 👴

Israeli forces are continuing violent raids on Palestinian communities across the occupied West Bank. On Sunday, residents of Hebron held a general strike to protest the killing of two Palestinians by Israeli forces a day earlier.

Face recognition is too dangerous for police use and undermines individual privacy. That's why Axon's new test integrating this tech into body-worn cameras is such an alarming development. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

A leaked DOJ memo obtained by @kenklippenstein.bsky.social reveals an effort to build a list of supposedly "anti-American" groups and individuals, an escalation of the administration's crackdown on dissent. The list targets "not just the left" but "anyone who isn't a Trump supporter," he says.

The United States of America; the so-called "land of the free" where their "amazing and the bestest freedom and democracy" can't even give working class people free healthcare, free education, free housing, free clean drinking water, free transportation, or even free care for the elderly.

My new podcast "Burn Order" is about the decision to incarcerate tens of thousands of Japanese-American families during World War II, and the remarkable fight against it. 6 episodes in total -- Eps. 1 and 2 are posted now. 3 and 4 will post tomorrow, December 8: podcasts.apple.com/me/podcast/r...

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

What can we do when the world's biggest platform decides an artist should be disappeared? People keep asking me. I don't know, I'm just the canary in this coal mine. I ask you, in the name of freedom of thought on planet Earth: what's next? www.counterpunch.org/2025/12/05/y...

Axon is testing facial recognition technology in its body-worn cameras with a Canadian police department. This dangerous expansion of surveillance tech should alarm every community. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

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. The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere. It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

Every time I find a progressive on Bluesky who is older than me, I am giddy like I just found a Jelly Belly in the bottom of what I thought was an empty bag.

The United States laws and international laws against war crimes not only protect the enemy, but those laws also protect your sons and daughters if they are wounded or captured after a military action. Whatever you do to them, they are perfectly justified in doing to your soldiers.

Want to know how the law stands on "Well, we killed them because they might have continued operations!"? Go look up Heinz-Wilhelm Eck. German U boot commander who spent 5 hours machine gunning sailors in the water because they might be seen and tell which way he'd gone. His sentence was death.

I’m humbled that some of you are giving my memoir as a gift. The ideal way to get it is from the Inequality Media Civic Action online store, where you can be sure your money will go to educate the public and resist Trump. https://store.inequalitymediacivicaction.org/

Himes: "What I saw in that room was one of the most troubling things I've seen in my time in public service ... any American who sees the video that I saw will see the US military attacking shipwrecked sailors."

Maybe instead of committing atrocities, we could just make the rich pay their fair share and have universal healthcare and affordable housing instead. Idk, just spitballing here.

We’re in a hell of a lot of trouble.

George Retes is an American citizen and veteran who was unjustly pepper-sprayed, arrested, and imprisoned for three days by ICE. Yet he won't be intimidated by this lawless administration. He's speaking up and telling his story as part of a new $250k @ofthebraveusa.bsky.social campaign. 👇
