“We must end any form of political violence—and reject those who try to exploit it,” one Democratic congresswoman asserted.

Collaborating with state governments, the Trump administration is building out an “unprecedented” mass incarceration system. “This is something we’ve not really seen at this scale before in the United States,” @shannonheffernan.bsky.social of The Marshall Project tells us.

One commentator noted that Brazil’s Supreme Court “refused to cave to imperialist threats” from the Trump administration.

All of these workers were fired by Microsoft for taking action in solidarity with Palestinians, and they're STILL organizing to oppose their former employer's complicity with Israel's genocide in Gaza. That's dedication. Listen to this excellent interview by @maximillianalvarez.bsky.social

Democracy is too important to be left to the Democrats. As MAGA fascism rises and liberal centrism collapses, what does a people’s movement for a more democratic society look like? W/ @ositanwanevu.com & @maximillianalvarez.bsky.social

Donald Trump is trying to criminalize the practice of volunteers accompanying immigrants to their court proceedings. Why? Because it works to prevent rights violations. The best way for citizens to show up for noncitizens is to literally show up.
