“We in America do not have government by the majority. We have government by the majority who participate” --Thomas Jefferson VOTE

🚨 SCOTUS has just ended Trump's ban on Birthright Citizenship, siding with our 14th Amendment. MASSIVE BLOW TO TRUMP'S WHITE SUPREMACY AGENDA!!!! If you were born in the United States, YOU ARE A US CITIZEN! And if you're against this, you're a racist POS and should be deported yourself.

Maybe he'll drop dead on the 4th of July and we can throw a proper celebration

Conversion ban in England and Wales hailed as ‘historic’ This coming on the heels of the SCOTUS ruling in the US to allow the abuses of conversion "therapy" to continue is an extra hard kick in the face "People found guilty of such abuse could face an unlimited fine and up to five years in prison"

Where are all of the so-called outraged congresspeople who claimed they would read the unredacted Epstein files on camera?

94% of Americans want the Epstein Files released 83% to raise the minimum wage 80% believe abortion should be legal 79% support taxing the rich more 72% want free tuition for college 71% support transgender rights 63% want Electoral College ended 62% pro-universal healthcare 60% for stricter gun law

The plan all along "If a threat were to arise, at a polling station, say a bomb threat would be called in, our ICE agents [would be there]" So fake bomb threats in blue strongholds, and then they can go and intimidate whatever voters they feel like

Apparently 'Live and Let Live' is just too much to ask for some people, and so here we are

This is why art is important ‘Is anyone else enraged about the Epstein files and how it’s all about the men and the money?’ “It seems to me that the feminism of the 1970s and 80s never happened. The whole history is being erased. And the voices of women around the world are also being erased.”

This only stops when we stop it "They’re treating us like animals, like we’re not worth anything. We’re not criminals, we’re workers, we’re struggling to get out ahead” "They just got served worms, crawling on their plates. You don’t even give an animal worms”

This only stops when we stop it Blood sugars rose. Infections festered. Cancers remained untreated. Detainees collapsed and had seizures "Pain grew so unbearable he pulled out his own tooth" "Leg grew purple, swollen from flesh-eating bacteria when staffers did not bring him to a DR appointment"

Rosa Parks' refusal to stand up and give her seat up to a white passenger on the bus was not some random, one time act taken because she was tired. Her action was part of a preconceived NAACP Bus campaign for equality and Parks was a dedicated activist. "Small" actions matters.

Not only is Kentucky in play, we are going to win this Senate seat.

Immigrant detainees at Delaney Hall ICE prison in Newark, NJ have been forced to cook, clean, & repair the facility for as little as $1/day and sometimes for free. They are on a hunger & labor strike; protesters outside have been tear-gassed. Here's our report, including a quote from a detainee:

I'm shocked, shocked I tell you! ICE agents detain man at NYC immigration hearing 1 day after judge bans court arrests "I brought copies of the full order to the courts today and gave them to a few of the agents ... that says they simply cannot detain and the agents said, 'We don't care"

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.

This. All of this. #Pinks #ProudBlue

It’s time. Meet in Selma. Saturday, May 16th. blackpowerwarroom.com/dayofaction/

Here are some of the most dramatic and powerful examples of how Black Americans — from elected officials to ordinary voters — have responded to the wave of GOP gerrymanders. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

In case you thought otherwise, in the midst of the illegal, unconstitutional Iran War, the continuing Epstein Coverup, the Gerrymandering battles, the insider trading & stock market manipulation, the corrupt SCOTUS rulings, and the continued ICE concentration camps, they're also still murdering too

Protesters are singing civil rights songs in the Tennessee Senate State and Local Government Committee.

HAPPENING NOW… marching on the Capitol…. #NewJimCrow @GovBillLee

Absolutely! Might I recommend a sustained, nonviolent protest in Washington DC demanding--and accepting nothing less than--the removal of the fascist Trump regime? RefuseFascism.org Join us!

HAPPENING NOW: Thousands of people are in the streets in DC as part of the #MayDay day of action and solidarity. We refuse to cooperate with a regime that is killing people, ignoring the law, and destroying our rights.

Hey, hey, it's MAY DAY. You know what to do... No School! No Work! No Shopping! #TaxTheOligarchs

What the ever living fuck is wrong with us, America? www.cbsnews.com/news/louisia...

Since the 9/11 attack in 2001 there have been over 60,000 children who have died from firearms in America 60,000 60 fucking thousand Since 9/11 there have been over twenty 9/11s worth of children who were killed by gun violence in America What the hell are we even doing as a country?

We’re getting ready for a massive day of economic disruption on May Day. There are many ways you can take action, from refusing to shop, to walking out of work, to attending a demonstration: survey.alchemer.com/s3/8705046/i...

This ends when we end it: Deaths in ICE custody reach 22-year high, report states, with 10 more deaths since report was made ICE has scaled back info released to public about deaths Median age of the people who died: 45 49% of deaths: “undetermined or unclassified” “And we’re only in mid-April"

At 66 days, the government shutdown (still in effect) is now the longest in U.S. history and yet very few in legacy media are discussing this fact Republicans can't govern, and legacy media aides and abets them

Take heart — people are in the streets. Chicago marched through the Loop demanding accountability. You can’t bully the world into peace. You can’t terrorize people in the name of humanity.

AI targeting and weapon deployment has no qualms about following unlawful orders and committing war crimes without restraint, on targets abroad and domestic

Oh boy, Dems slam it out of the ballpark yet again Senior House Democrats told Axios there are "rumblings"...about sending a letter to the Cabinet urging them to invoke the 25th Amendment

Your taxes are about to fund war crimes and genocide in Iran, have you changed your tax status yet?

In all seriousness, one thing that might be worth doing today: Tell your Reps and Senators to call Adm. Richard Correll, the Commander of U.S. Strategic Command, which controls the nation's nukes, and remind him of *his* unique responsibility to refuse an illegal order.

If ever there was a point in this country that Americans needed to stand up for their Democracy, their country, one another, and the world, that moment is now Freedom, Democracy, and peace require sacrifice; either we stop this now, together, or we lose everything Make your choice

Once upon a time, my grandmother bought this pink monstrosity for my mom from a dollar store and we've made a tradition out of celebrating Easter with our nightmare inducing crack rabbit ever since Enjoy the day, get some rest, we ride again at dawn

Remember that MLK said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people."

IT'S TIIIIIIMMMMMMEEEEEEEE!! Drastic times call for drastic measures. If you can stay home, AWESOME. If you can't, please consider NOT BUYING anything that day. The POINT is the pressure of OUR POWER. #MAYDay #May1st #GeneralStrike #NOBusinessAsUSUAL www.commondreams.org/news/no-king...
