If only a dedicated group of scientists had warned us about the record heat, torrential flooding, continental scale wildfires, and apocalyptic orange skies

ICE has killed another person, this time by depriving him of life-sustaining medication for a known medical condition. Jesus Manuel Arenas-Silva was detained on Thursday. He was dead by Monday. Per @detentionwatchnetwork.org:

So they're rolling the "deploy Chromebooks to schools" strategy to recoup operating losses?

Another person has died in ICE custody. Jesus Manuel Arenas-Silva was a 45-year-old from Venezuela. His cause of death is pending; he's suspected of dying from a heart attack.

This is an excellent piece from @kimkelly.bsky.social for @climateconnections.bsky.social. The frankness around the effectiveness of marches as a tactic for folks in their 20s was a perspective I never considered. Really enlightening. yaleclimateconnections.org/2026/07/why-...

ICE killed another person.

Joan Sebastian Guerrero. Say his name.

No, this seems fine www.wsj.com/opinion/why-...

Please link to the report on the ground! The Portland Press Herald is doing great work (they're still updating), and citing where we're getting info from matters. www.pressherald.com/2026/07/13/s...

Authorities say ICE shot and killed a person this morning in Maine. www.wmtw.com/article/signific...

Block parties are praxis

YESTERDAY - ST. CHARLES, CHICAGO While handcuffed and not resisting, ICE agents smashed a man’s face into a stone wall, then assaulted a U.S. citizen multiple times, once they realized they were being filmed by him and other people, who were also threatened by Trump’s thugs. #ICEOUT

The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti

As of last night, I've sold over 100 copies of my #book, A NEIGHBOR'S PRIMER TO ORGANIZING, ADVOCACY, AND THE URGENCY OF COMMUNITY. To everyone who has shown up on the tour, ordered a copy (or 3) online, and supported me: Thank you. I'm only getting started. www.armando-mc.com/updates/the-...

ICE murdered another person.

Thank you Mary Meuser Memorial Library! I appreciated everyone who came out tonight and grappled with how we define #community, how we build it, and how so many of us are anxious to take that first step! #SupportLocalLibraries #BookTour #NewAuthor #booksky

*angrily, bitterly*: "you can't even be a rapist anymore, because of woke"

Happy that the first public library stop on my #booktour will be my local library! #SupportLocalLibraries #NewBook #Indie #booksky

Major news: WEXMAC TITUS—the shady workaround DHS was using to give no bid contracts for building out ICE concentration camps—is dead, according to Sec. Mullin

Anytime someone brings up this word they need to be asked, repeatedly and perhaps patiently, what it means. Not for a gotcha moment, but to maybe get them to realize they don't know what it means.

Mr President, sir. The peoples of this great nation demand your presence and words of wisdom out in the National Mall right now. They would really appreciate it if you did that hugging a flagpole bit also.

Another 4th of July, another opportunity to reflect to this speech youtu.be/xX-AlsQcZgs?...

We're all Cabo Verde tonight?

African, can confirm: every moment of your life has been spent during an atrocity somewhere, perpetuated or exacerbated by a larger number of countries and corporations than many care to admit.

The Luddites were not beaten by technological progress. They were beaten because capitalists teamed up with the British crown to call up the largest domestic military occupation in the country’s history. The British government hung Luddites or shipped them to penal colonies in Australia

New favorite youtube channel. @pbs.org is absolutely crushing it youtu.be/Uw3C_hkt8PE?...

Has anyone made a tier list of World Cup songs from the past 30 years?

As an author, agreed. It's a profound feeling and I'm sorry so many creatives are going to lose that.

really cannot be emphasized enough that the drafters of the birthright clause very much considered cases analogous to undocumented immigrants and *included them too*

Ok so those of us who were worried about birthright citizenship can now focus on supporting the trans community.

if you're trans, you have to live. one day you can live to see these guys all die.

I had a bigger crowd at my #book launch

*Anybody says anything about "America 250"* My brain:

After federal agents shot Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, a New Yorker sent ICE's director an email in January comparing him to a Nazi. This week, DHS agents stalked him across New York. His home. A hotel. They gave his wife a letter warning of criminal prosecution. www.syracuse.com/news/2026/06...

Necessary reading. We are all antifa now.

CC: The @democrats.org . This is how you bring folks together after a disagreement.

(while being killed) stay alert everyone this is just a trial balloon for them killing someone more important

"Vote Blue No Matter Who" going great

Excited to take my #book tour to my local library next month. I'll be reading excerpts, discussing influences, and power mapping with attendees. And if you haven't had a chance to pick up a copy, you order through Bookshop.org or buy direct: shop.ingramspark.com/b/084?params... #booksky #newauthor

@bradlander.bsky.social , incredibly excited for you my friend. Reflecting on all the campaigns where you were an ally, colleague, and friend. Excited and rooting for you from PA.

this is unbelievable.

“ I watched my baby take his first breath, and I watched my baby take his last breath,” Vellesiya Wiley said, eight days after a police officer shot and killed her 1-year-old son in her arms in Senatobia. The family is seeking an independent autopsy and demanding the release of video footage.

I *think* printing issues are now resolved, but currently my #book is showing "Out of Stock" at major retailers. For folks in the LV, please check www.armando-mc.com/purchase for a list of preferred retailers. For others, you can purchase direct here: shop.ingramspark.com/b/084?params...
