✈️ NATO again scrambled fighter jets to intercept Russian planes over the Baltics — three times in a week, - LRT Su-30, Su-35, MiG-31 fighter jets, as well as An-12 and An-72 aircraft, were spotted in the skies over the Baltic Sea, heading from mainland Russia to the Kaliningrad region.

It's a pretty big deal that the NYC Bar Association--one of the most prominent and respected bar associations in the country--is accusing the President of ordering the "unlawful summary execution," i.e. murder--of civilians in violation of US and international law. www.nycbar.org/press-releas...

One of the more incredible stories out of LA this year has been how a taco review blog became the best on-the-ground coverage of ICE raids in the city. They do a dispatch every day, follow-up on the kidnapped people (which almost no media outlet has done), and fact-check government claims.

Great news-- Ford and GM will keep the $7500 tax credit for new #EVs through leasing for another few months! Take advantage of it while you can. Once you own a clean #EV you'll never want to go back to a polluting and expensive-to-maintain gas car. electrek.co/2025/09/30/f...

For 26 but especially 2028 it's time for Democrats to make clear that the current Supreme Court will have to be reformed (expanded in number, reformed in structure) to allow popular govt to continue in the United States. Not so much a litmus test as precondition for any other promise to be credible.

As a resident of #Portland it is impossible to capture how unhinged this is. We are a low crime city and the ICE protest "siege" consists of one auxiliary ICE office that normally has at most a dozen weirdos debating what performance art they should use to block a single driveway

Okay this might be a crazy idea but… what what if when the gov shuts down on Oct 1 students walk out of school, and everyone who can calls out of work.

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Lower court judges overseeing the avalanche of lawsuits against President Donald Trump’s powergrab are increasingly voicing their concerns and frustrations with the Supreme Court’s handling of the second Trump administration thus far.

Clean up #SB131!!

There’s a persistent myth that new solar farms don’t really help tackle climate change because panels are “made with coal” and “never pay back” their carbon debt. This is simply false. - UN: solar ~8x cleaner than gas, ~19x than coal per kWh - panels repay CO2 in 4 months; save 57x over life

To our enduring shame, the US wrongfully incarcerated 120,000 people of Japanese descent - more than two-thirds US citizens - between February, 1942 and December, 1945. ICE is already wrongfully incarcerating people 2x faster than that, and the Republican spending bill just tripled ICE's budget.

If pundits would like to talk about violence, a terrorist recently shot up the CDC and another assassinated Democratic officials in Minnesota but they sort of let both stories disappear Not as threatening as motorbikes in DC I know but maybe we could circle back?

2) Unequivocally show that businesses stand WITH immigrant workers and clientele, and AGAINST Trump’s secret police tactics. Protect your community from fascist ICE raids by signing up to complete a Signs of Solidarity canvass. 👇

Slow down ICE by visiting local businesses, speaking to small business owners or store managers, and distributing signs that do two things: 1) Clearly mark "Staff Only" areas to create safe zones where ICE can’t legally operate without a signed judicial warrant.

I think there's a huge unmet demand for co-housing, which are like condos but with more shared amenities/activities.

Since the coal plant closed in 2016, researchers have tracked respiratory and cardiovascular ER visits & hospitalizations before & after the shutdown-finding dramatic improvement..an immediate 20% decrease in weekly ER visits for respiratory problems & a 40% decrease in visits for pediatric asthma

Here's Lee Zeldin delivering the regime's propagandistic, lie-filled announcement of the illegal end of Solar for All.

For 60 years since its passage, the Voting Rights Act has been undermined by politicians trying to make decisions on behalf of voters. It's time to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, get rid of partisan gerrymandering, and give power back to the people. www.npr.org/2025/08/06/n...

A reminder: 40% of all bulk shipping is simply moving fossil fuels around. Horrors like this happen constantly. And when they don't happen, and the fuels arrive "safely", their use destroys the world we depend on.

ICE is the American Gestapo. And this absurd display of terrorism in Los Angeles is meant to incite fear in our communities. But the people aren’t having it. We are pushing back every chance we can—showing these fascists we will not bend, we will not break, we will stand in defiance, together.
