Farmworkers are installing trellis posts for a new grape vineyard. Each post is precisely placed. Workers must handle heavy steel materials under the hot sun. The setup stage is slow, repetitive & physically taxing. It determines how successful the vineyard will be. #WeFeedYou

Post from Mike: “One of the ironies about being in R.E.M. is that I could never see my band play. I could never truly know the effect our music had on our fans, or what it might have felt like to see us at any point in our musical journey, especially the early days.” (More in comments)

My resolution to overturn the Supreme Court’s disastrous Citizens United decision — H.J.Res 122 — has now been co-sponsored by 72 Members of Congress. You can view the full list at: www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c.... I’ll keep fighting to get it across the finish line!

This is Zester. She was found as a stray, frightened, emaciated, and with broken front legs. She needs supportive care and nutritional support, along with a CT scan to determine next steps in her treatment, which vets say may include surgery or even amputation. Help her below ❤️‍🩹 1510.fan/zester-bsd

The high today is Arvin CA reached 91°. Farm workers are out under the hot sun harvesting asian vegetables for our tables. "Cristina" shares, "This work is very difficult. It is very hot as we are directly under the sun with very little shade." #WeFeedYou

"Those now in charge of Iran think that prudence and restraint have only encouraged US aggression. They are likely to pursue more aggressive nuclear and missile policies and be more willing to...escalate confrontation with the US and Israel." - Vali Nasr for Zeteo

"Susana" shares, "We are a crew of farm workers from the Imperial Valley. We're harvesting Rappini broccoli. Our hands get tired from cutting bunches of the vegetable by hand all day long." #WeFeedYou

"Arturo" has been a UFW member for 25 years. "Because I have a UFW contract I enjoy good wages, a medical plan, a pension, paid holidays and paid vacation. Best of all I have job security that protects me against unfair termination." #WeFeedYou

i don’t know how this is supposed to work in terms of intelligence but whatever these guys do is taking stuff that is not theirs to take and then sell it for the highest possible price electricity water clean air knowledge you name it they should be treated like the common thieves they are

100+ farm workers from across CA want to be in Fresno as our case against the Trump Admin’s wage cuts is heard in federal court. They'll rally in front of the courthouse. We need funds for buses, vans, food & water for them. Will you donate to help? act.seiu.org/a/courthouse...

NEW: Right-wing activists are circulating a draft executive order that purports to give Trump sweeping power over federal elections. @mollyroberts.bsky.social and I got new details on the activists, lawyers, and conspiracy theorists behind the proposed order: www.lawfaremedia.org/article/in-c...

"Julio" works in Salinas, CA as a tractor driver. "I'm preparing the land to plant vegetables for this new season. I. Work from sun up to sun down. I'm proud that thanks to me and my coworkers families across the states have fresh vegetables on their tables." #WeFeedYou

"Gloria" shared this pic of herself picking strawberries in CAs Central Coast. "The water was up to my knees making it very hard to push my cart. My feet were so wet and cold, I couldn’t feel them. Growers have us harvest despite the flooding to avoid losing product." #WeFeedYou

Sunday Thoughts 🤔🍁from a Canadian🇨🇦 '𝙒𝙖𝙧 𝘾𝙧𝙞𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙡𝙨'

Billy Corgan is a moron peddling not too veiled racist rhetoric.

"Raul" is pruning grape vines in Madera. "The work's physically exhausting. I earn 31 cents per plant and must keep a steady pace throughout the day to make enough. The repetitive cutting and bending causes my arms & hands to cramp as I do this work for hours on end." #WeFeedYou

“Kristi Noem caused lasting harm to farm worker communities. Our lawsuit against racist raids is called “UFW v. Noem” for a reason. That fight continues, even if her time as DHS secretary doesn’t.”

It’s time to reveal the billionaire donors flooding American elections with potent dark money. I’m introducing the DISCLOSE Act with Senator Whitehouse and Rep. Pappas to make our money-drenched elections more transparent for all citizens.

"There is more and more evidence emerging every single day of grave war crimes being carried out by the United States and Israel in Iran and Lebanon and across the region," says human rights lawyer Omar Shakir, executive director of @dawnmenaorg.bsky.social.

"Victor" is working in the oranges in Tulare County. "We're pressured to work very fast as they want as much as possible harvested before the rain. We worked more than 8 hours but did not get overtime pay. We can't speak up. We already won't be working when it rains" #WeFeedYou

Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:

The legendary "Creature from the Black Lagoon" (1954), directed by Jack Arnold, hit American theatres for the very first time 72 years ago today! #CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon #16mmInferno #Horror

At this point, it's safe to assume most of the Republicans are talking like nazis in their group chats.

🤥 @KristiNoem today: “I didn’t call Alex Pretti a domestic terrorist.” FLASHBACK: she sure did 👇🏽

Excellent advice right here.

Our nation is again at war, not because we had to but because the president recklessly chose to. Now we must recognize who pays the price: not the president and his wealthy allies, but service members and ordinary Americans.

"I don't see what difference it's going to make," says Iranian American scholar Ervand Abrahamian in response to reports of Ali Khamenei's death. "Even if the top is decapitated, there are other people already there ready to replace them."

"Saul" is hard at work in the Coachella Valley keeping the mango trees free of weeds. This is important as it prevents competition for essential water and nutrients that could effect future fruit yield. #WeFeedYou

NEW YORK — “growing outrage” after a nearly blind refugee father dropped off by border patrol and left to find his way home in the cold was found dead

If you know a farmer, take a moment today to thank them. The government and society may fail to honor them, but we, as individuals, can start the change right now. Gratitude begins at home.Sustainable farming systems are critical pillars of fighting food insecurity.

In the coming months, the Supreme Court will rule on a case that could gut key parts of the Voting Rights Act and radically alter the country’s voting maps Mississippi's Black voters are bracing for "devastation"

A popular right-wing account that called a video depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes "a masterpiece" appears to be run by a White House staffer, according to records reviewed by WIRED. www.wired.com/story/a-whit...

Ilhan Omar disrupted tRumpstein's SOTU: 'YOU HAVE KILLED AMERICANS' 💯💯💯 The PEDOPHILE called out Democrats for not “standing up” when he said “the first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens 🖕, not illegal aliens” NO HUMAN IS ILLEGAL NO HUMAN IS ALIEN ICE KILLS AMERICANS

"We" didn't win shit. "You" should never be allowed to put your hands on a medal that requires a lifetime of discipline and training to win. And to Fox News, who used this moment, to attack Canada: "Hockey is all they have and we took it from them!" Go fuck yourself you useless, talentless fucks.

This kind of repression is not a traditional part of African culture. It has been pushed on the continent aggressively by American evangeicals. www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/02/two-...

The anti-choice effort to restrict mifepristone is in court on Tuesday - a key claim being that easy access results in women being coerced into taking pills. The opposite is true - abortion bans and restrictions trap women in abusive situations.

Court order was granted last May, but not yet served? Make me understand! "...the order was not valid as it had not yet been served...petition for a protection order was filed by a mother against her adult son in April 2025 and granted the following month in May."

Just a quick reminder that if I tried or did any of the things the Trump admin is trying or doing at any of the minimum wage jobs I've worked, I would have been fired on the spot.

Joanne Bland, one of the youngest people to march on “Bloody Sunday,” has died. She was 72. "By the time I was 11-years-old, I had been arrested at least 13 documented times”

"Mario" shares, "I'm a strawberry picker. I wake up at 4:30 in the morning to work for 4 to 5 hours in this cold damp weather. I end up earning $60 to $80. I do it with great pride. Farm workers are essential. We put food on America's tables." #WeFeedYou
