Join us on the Square this Saturday for #nokings.

I understand why Putin wants to destroy America, and I can guess why Trump is helping him do it. But I'll never figure out why Congress is letting him get away with it.

FINALLY BACK! Whew, nice to be able to be here again. (Mississippi embargo ended with age verification)

61 years ago today Mrs. Fannie Lou Hamer one of the most courageous activists of the Civil Rights Movement posed the question that echoes today with every migrant round-up by masked officers, as federal troops converge on D.C.,as institutions are threatened: “IS THIS AMERICA?” youtu.be/DFC1nc3IXBM

Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users. While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.

BREAKING: BlueSky is blocking access to Mississippi. This is the No. 1 platform for @mississippifreepress.org. We ditched X for BlueSky early this year. And now, at 3 pm on a Friday, poof. I don't know what we'll do next. Keep up with us using our newsletter at mfp.ms/subscribe.

My new editorial: "Whatever the Mississippi Legislature’s intent, we now find ourselves in a place where we are now having to grapple with how to ensure we can stay connected with all of our readers, many of whom follow us on BlueSky." www.mississippifreepress.org/editors-note...

UPDATE: It looks like @mississippifreepress.org will be able to continue posting to BlueSky through Buffer. But that still doesn't help all our followers in Mississippi who can no longer access BlueSky and may not use a VPN. So sign up for our newsletter: www.mississippifreepress.org/newsletters/

With this barrage of unbelievable news, sometimes you've got to step back, draw a breath, and say WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK? boingboing.net/2025/08/13/t...

This is A+ trolling

The President cannot commandeer any local law enforcement. The President does not run the Smithsonian. The monthly BLS jobs report is required by law. Release the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Planned Parenthood is here for you. No matter what.

“Those of us that practice in rural settings, we’re going to be here,” he said. “We’ll do it, regardless of what our resources. But there’s also the realization that we feel like the orchestra on the Titanic.” Read my latest @nashvillebanner.bsky.social nashvillebanner.com/2025/08/12/t...

I’m almost to my one-year “planniversary” and love working at PP. Please share these job postings with anyone for whom they are a fit!

Did you say “admitted to the bar in 2024?” The DEI of it all. This is insane.

The story about the oldest embryo resulting in live birth this week goes deeper than you can imagine. I've been covering this story for nearly a year. Stay tuned for more. #tnrepronews #reprorights #ivf #reproductiverights #fertilityjourney www.technologyreview.com/2025/07/29/1...

NIGHTS OF BLUE SKIES (SOUND UP) DAY 21 JULY 2025 THESE HORRENDOUS TIMES LIsten & Share THIS IS REAL AUDIO HE TELLS YOU LOUD AND CLEAR Young GIRLS..CHILDREN Howard Stern 2006 He'd stop at 12 year olds It's upsetting to type this This should infuriate you Outraged Media get on this !

A Mississippi law that bans diversity, equity and inclusion programs from public schools and universities is on hold after a judge temporarily blocked it on Sunday. Read the latest on the anti-DEI law, House Bill 1193.

I didn’t start out thinking there was some genuinely incriminating info about Trump in the DOJ files on Epstein but I’m definitely changing my mind!

Marco Rubio needs to be asked whether he believes his grandfather who remained in the U.S. after receiving a deportation order from our govt should have been treated the way the father of 3 Marines was treated by ICE this weekend in California. ASK HIM. Make him confront his lack of character.

If only we could pass legislation like this.

It should not be lost on anyone that Minnesota Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot to death in her home last night by an assassin, was a gun safety advocate who worked tirelessly to protect her constituents from gun violence.

Surely this can’t happen. But of course they want it to.

Yay for my Dad! 💗💗💗

PATRIOT 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 “No Kings” rally 11am today at City Hall. Oxford, Miss. JOIN US

Join us on the Square in Oxford tomorrow to say NO to fascism. Pres. Trump isn’t just sending the military into American cities as a power grab – he’s using it to distract from his funding bill that will rip healthcare from 16 million people. The right to peacefully protest is fundamental.

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

The same guy who tells us LA is on fire is at the Kennedy Center watching Les Miserables, and if that isn't ironic, I don’t know what is.

In no universe did Senator Alex Padilla “lunge” at anyone. This administration is full of pathological liars.

You wanyt a political stunt? I've got one for you right here:

Don't let them lie to you about Senator Padilla. DHS is claiming the agents DID NOT KNOW he was a senator. He CLEARLY says (BEFORE he is tackled and cuffed) "I am Senator Alex Padilla and I have a question for the secretary."

What happened to Senator Padilla is absolutely DISGUSTING. Point blank, period. This shit is out of control. Another elected official disrespected while doing their job. (1/2)

🚨 Secretary Noem basically said that her agency is now dedicated to forcible regime change…in American cities and states. There 👏🏽 is 👏🏽 a 👏🏽 name 👏🏽 for 👏🏽 this

Sen. Alex Padilla: "If this is how this DHS responds to a senator with a question, I can only imagine what they're doing to farmers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California and throughout the country. We will hold this administration accountable."

This is not hard. Every Republican member of Congress should join Democrats in condemning this administration’s vicious arrest of Sen Padilla. “A Republic if you can keep it” is now.

I'm on my way to the Senate floor to talk about the assault on my colleague, Senator Alex Padilla. This is a horrifying moment in our nation’s history.
