The so-called Save America Act will force 21 million American citizens to produce passports or birth certificates just to register to vote. Most do not have them ready. Turning paperwork into a barrier is a poll tax by another name. #HandsOffHerVote social.demcast.com/s/L9X3k1fQ

Abolish ICE. Start over.

Please call the Senate they will vote very soon on whether to allow dangerous sulfide-ore copper mining on the edges of Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Tell them to vote NO on House Joint Resolution 140 (H.J. Res. 140).

We Must Establish The Run Against Authoritarianism It's the little stuff that add up to victory over the bad guys

Establishing the run against authoritarian rule, as @edsbs.bsky.social says, requires the little things, the acts of resistance and kindness and community that eventually add up to something much larger and transformative.

I wrote about it for BadFaithTimes.com.

Tell Google and YouTube: Stop taking money from ICE. Take down vile ICE recruitment ads now. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has a goal of hiring 10,000 new ICE agents to power the Trump administration’s mass deportation machine. They’re spending $100 million on an “aggressive” recr...

You can’t just say “Abolish ICE”. You also have to say “Abolish ICE and throw every person working in the agency into federal prison for crimes against humanity”.

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years.

These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Sixteen years ago, the Supreme Court decided that corporations are people under the First Amendment.

Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors.

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

ICE has stopped paying for detainee medical treatment ICE halted payments in October, and the situation will persist for at least several more months

Even as ICE receives $170B in new funding, it has stopped paying for medical care for detainees — including life-saving medications, dialysis, and chemotherapy treatments.

Remember: Over 70% of detainees have no criminal convictions.

Cruelty on steroids.

IATSE International President Matthew D. Loeb Meets with Kennedy Center Workers Amid Recent Cancellations March 13, 2025 WASHINGTON, DC — This week, IATSE International President Matthew D. Loeb visited the Kennedy Center to meet with IATSE members, hear their concerns, and show solidarity as behind-the-scenes workers face uncertainty following recent show cancellations. During his visit, Loeb reaffirmed the vital role that stagehands, wardrobe professionals, makeup artists, ticket sellers, press agents, and other skilled entertainment workers play in bringing world-class productions to life at the Kennedy Center—regardless of the content or artistic choices involved. “Behind-the-scenes workers need to feed our families and have neither participated in any decisions relating to booked content, nor have we considered social issues as a matter of whether we service a production in the history of our relationship at the Kennedy Center,” Loeb stated. “We have a contract and fulfill our end of the deal. We are the best, safest, most experienced workforce available and we’ve worked in the building since it opened 53 years ago, throughout all the challenges and successes the institution has seen. It is our hope the Center can continue to offer the best to the public when it comes to promoting world-class productions, while protecting freedom of speech and expression, free of censorship in the spirit of foundational democratic values.” With seven IATSE Locals representing labor at the Kennedy Center—including Local 22 (Stagehands), Local 772 (Wardrobe), Local 798 (Make-up Artists and Hair Stylists), Local 868 (Treasurers & Ticket Sellers), Local B868 (Instant Charge/Telephone Sales and Information), Local USA 829 (Scenic Artists), and ATPAM Local 18032 (Theatrical Press Agents & Managers)—as well as touring crews working under IATSE’s Pink Contracts, cancelled shows and empty seats directly impact hundreds of families. IATSE urges artists and producers to consider the…
