It's important to understand the totality of U.S. history, even and especially things we are ashamed of. This documentary highlights the fragility of American democracy and the white supremacist take over of Wilmington, NC

California: With Trump's whack conditions to receive FEMA, you should threaten to not pay federal taxes!

California is the 5th largest economy in the world (www.ppic.org/publication/...), provides around 16% of the federal tax base (www.ntu.org) and in 2021 alone paid $360 million in federal taxes

We just got visited by a small owl! He perched on the steps of our hot tub and sat there for an hour, pivoting his head in the snow. As it snowed harder, he took flight to some bamboo against the house, sat there for a few minutes, and we got to stare into his eyes for a moment. Incredible! ❀️

Today would have marked 52 years of Roe as the law of the land. But Donald Trump packed the Supreme Court with anti-abortion extremists to get it overturned.

This week, he cut off access to reproductiverights.gov.

We must keep fighting for women’s rights.

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

Opinion | Oil and Gas Companies Should Pay for the Los Angeles Fires It’s time to require these companies to compensate communities, homeowners, businesses and even insurers for the losses.

Who should pick up the tab for the billions of dollars in damages from these deadly fires in LA? The fossil fuel industry who lied about climate change for decades, that's who.

Civil servants brace for a second Trump presidency Many federal employees fear they may end up in ethical binds, caught between the instructions of their bosses and their duty to serve the American people.

One the eve of Donald Trump’s inauguration, many career #civilservants fear that they may end up in ethical binds, caught between the instructions of their bosses and their duty to serve the American people.

No one should be discriminated against based on their sex. It’s long past time for women’s equal rights to be recognized in our Constitution.
