My 14 yr-old just said, "We think the Civil Rights Movement was a long time ago, but like...I follow Ruby Bridges on TikTok."

My 14 yr old and I are reading through that Dred Scott case together. SCOTUS has been awful and racist before. When The Taney Court rejected the citizenship and humanity of Black Americans, it launched the Civil War. The Roberts Court would to well to remember how America responded to Taney.

Something something orban money gone

Please understand that Republicans went to criminalize homelessness. They are desperate for debtors prison and forced labor and finding ways to make people contribute to the wealth of the Epstein Class.

Criticizing Billie Eilish's regrettable harmful comments clearly pissed off a few folks. Oh, well. I speak from my convictions, not to pander for clicks.

Yesterday I put out a short series on what I think is one of the most important conflicts in US history: The Fish Wars. The algo crushed them. The worst performing vids in 2 yrs. They are some of the most crucial vids I've made for activists today. We have much to learn here. Please check them out.

Sorry I'm not in this space as much. Really wrestling with what it means to be an activist and also make my living on social media while also low-key hating this profit- and misinfo-driven industry and the harm it causes. Very jaded about whether we are a net good for democracy.

So my kids at Oregon State and University of Oregon are still locked out of Canvas. Bc hackers. What a shitshow.

Is this normal?

There is a very good chance this is indeed what is going to happen.

Thanks for your patience over the last few days. We are really going thru it, also, had a substack to post 5/3, but I broke my laptop on our trip, soooooo….bit of a hot mess. Hoping to get home today and get it repaired this week. In the meantime, here’s a huge banana slug from outside our cabin.

We all know why he's doing this. Coincidentally, remember a few months ago when Big Coal gave him a big made up "champion of coal" trophy bc they know how to play him like a fiddle?

Soybean farmer: Fuel costs impact everything we do, whether it's fertilizer, seed, or delivering our crops to market. It's certainly taking an already difficult economic situation and putting us in a really severe pinch now.

Welp. I guess it's my 10 year anniversary as a YouTube creator.

I think letting SNAP recipients have hot rotisserie chicken is good, actually.

1. Flip the Senate this year 2. Block all GOP SCOTUS nominations 3. Hold the Senate and elect a Dem POTUS in 2028 4. Kill the filibuster 5. Pass HR1 6. Pass 18 year term limits on SCOTUS 7. Fill the 5 new vacancies with liberal justices 8. Have nice things

quick reminder that Pete Hegseth is still employed

Rebranding ICE ➡️ 🙄👎🏽 Abolishing ICE + making an immigration system that actually works ➡️ 🥳 ✊🏽❤️

BLANCHE: By the way, that wasn't a private message to Bondi. That was a message delivered to the entire world. So this isn't being done behind closed doors WELKER: But it was meant to be private initially BLANCHE: How do you know? WELKER: Based on my conversations with top White House officials

The mask is already off their "going after the worst of the worst" claims, but this is a new level of inhumane. Their lies are endless, & to invoke "safety & wellness checks" wrt to this crap is especially insulting, coming from AHs who currently have so many kids trapped in miserable conditions.

I was today years old when my eldest kid taught me about Elsagate. I'm now fully convinced the internet is a net negative. 😭😭😭

In solidarity with my fellow Americans, I will not be posting content or doing other work today. May Day is a day of action against the tyranny of the billionaires and the Trump regime: No work, No School, No Shopping. maydaystrong.org

The "reactionary colorblindess" of the right-wing justices has reached its logical conclusion in finding that it is racist NOT to let Louisiana—and any other state for that matter—discriminate on the basis of race in voting. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

When I said Dems have a gerontocracy problem and it's repeatedly harmed us - especially when they keep dying in office - everyone gets big mad.

The GOP can't win unless they deprive millions of Americans their rights. They are an undemocratic, unAmerican party of cheaters and p3do protectors.

The Roberts Court, their corruption, destruction of democracy, and overt racism must spurn the People of this nation to reform the Court, pass laws to protect Black Americans' rights...let this be the thing that pushes us to fight for VRA2 and radical reforms. The racists don't get to win this.

When the cartoon replaces all the words ...

Today, after 75 days, Republicans finally passed the same DHS funding bill they could have passed back in February — a bill to fund TSA, FEMA, & the Coast Guard without giving a penny to Trump’s lawless ICE & CBP.  75 days of pure political theater. Total incompetence.

Not only is Glusenkamp-Perez a huge disappointment, but my congresswoman told us not to criticize MGP because the alternative is a Trumper Republican. AYFKM? The alternative is that the people of SW WA run and elect Dems who are not "the most Trump-aligned Dem in Congress" like MGP.

But not teachers? What about the health and wellness of all of the people beaten and killed by law enforcement? Where's their relief? This is definitely a choice you're making MGP. One in a string of exceptionally bad choices.

Amazon blocked a shareholder resolution that would force them to expose the truth: Amazon’s technology is powering genocide in Gaza and detentions and deportations in the “united states.” Read more from the Amazon Worker Intifada below

The cruelty is the point. Every fucker who participated in these atrocities must be held responsible for their part in this inhumanity.

Graham Platner shows us that getting The People involved in the primaries can overcome Chuck Schumer and the corporate Dem establishment. We can get change. Incremental progress is how we progress, folks. Build power locally and within your state. That's where you can do the most good.

American Black women now have fewer voting rights and reproductive rights than their mothers did at the same age. Progress isn’t a straight line, indeed.

If Marie Glusenkamp Perez votes for this bullshit, I will be zero percent surprised.

This👇🏽 deserves to be posted 100 times but I’d be labeled spam.

Marsha Blackburn's call for TN to redraw their map to eliminate our only safe D district (which is also majority black) proves this point.

The public already gets it. news.gallup.com/poll/695759/...

Whole Foods supports ICE. A national Whole Foods boycott and rotating protest is growing. Join us.

John Roberts wants a legacy. He'll be remembered as having weakened this nation and empowered a villain. History will record his name with shame and hold him out as the source of the vainglorious and hubristic betrayal of the Constitution that pushed the American People to reform SCOTUS.

If we don't fight, we don't win. We have to work to hold everyone accountable to the law or the fascists will trample it.

We don't like to hear it, but considering I have a lot of IRL + online friends who think voting doesn't matter/ harm reduction can't happen via elections: this is bc people couldn't hold their nose and vote for HRC. We wield our power thru elections, the economy, streets. We must use all levers.

When you’ve lost Jonathan Turley 👀

Hi, folks. Due to a family emergency I won't be putting out any videos today. Not sure yet about tomorrow. If you'd like to support my work, please go back and watch some of my old content. Thanks!! ❤️❤️❤️

The reek of desperation is burning my nostrils. How much are they going to try to pilfer and how many people are they going to try to punish on their rapid decline to the end of Trumpism? It feels very...Nero Decree...but the cargo cult version.

Cringiest kakistocracy.

Limited edition passport…for those who enjoy mandatory cavity searches during their travels.

I can't stand Jeffries and Schumer, but I actually don't think it's a bad idea not prioritize impeachment... proceedings are not a good use of our energy and resources without a Senate that can convict and remove. The House needs to flex its purse strings. Cut off funding to the WH.

Good. Get his blood pressure up. More Kimmels exercising their 1st amendment rights, pls. Also, what an idiotic move to go for Kimmel. Do you fashy fucks not remember how that went last time??

@tinakotek.bsky.social spending $600million of public money for an out-of-state billionaire sportsball team owner while schools across the state layoff hundreds of teachers due to the budget crisis is quite the choice when you are up for re-election.
