JD Vance brushes off racist texts by adults in Republican group chat as ‘what kids do’ Vice-president downplays messages such as ‘I love Hitler’ in chat by 24 to 35-year-olds to ‘stupid jokes’

For those of you keeping score, 18-22 year-old students calling for an end to slaughter in Gaza are so racist they need to be expelled or deported, but 24-35 year-olds celebrating Hitler, rape, and, um, racism are just kids being kids so chill.

Also, racism is over so no need for Voting Right Act.

I think the certainty is always our downfall. No one actually knows what will "work." No one. You try lots of different things and then you see what can be built on.

I see protest discourse is hitting the feed again ahead of No Kings—idk man, go, don’t go,

…but if you do go make sure to link up with an org that’ll help you get into longterm organizing and if you don’t go, make sure to link up with an org that’ll help you get into longterm organizing

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Screenshot of a Facebook post featuring three of the Portland protesters wearing inflatable frog costumes with the following text: Episcopalians on Facebook Elizabeth Rose Elrod • 22h • Exodus 8:2-6 "But if you refuse to let them go, I will plague your whole country with frogs... The frogs shall come up on you and on your people and on all your officials."

you fucked around and now the Episcopalians are doing memes. are you happy now. are you

Horrific. This is Amerikkka.

Today, we denounce the lie of “discovery”: a legacy built on genocide, land theft, and extraction.
🪶We root ourselves in Indigenous sovereignty & the first fights for land, water, and life.
🌱 We fight for repair, balance, and liberation led by Indigenous wisdom and struggle. #IndigenousPeoplesDay

They Came for Our Neighbors. We Showed Up. Before long, there were dozens, and then hundreds of people in the streets, watching and responding.

My latest is the story of how my community has rallied to protect and defend our neighbors in recent days, as ICE has targeted the Rogers Park neighborhood in Chicago. "This is not a story about a moment of victory, but a moment of being reminded of our power."

Israeli settlers continue to wage war on Palestinians in the West Bank and elsewhere. They are breaking into people's homes, stealing their stuff, trashing their homes and sometimes kidnapping and killing people. This is happening NOW. People should know this.

You can, in fact, just do stuff. No permission needed. Have an idea? Execute it.

Clearly. The state of things reflects your vast talents.

Exactly. This guy is clearly meaning 'white' when he says 'American'. Wonder why. 💁🏽‍♀️

I'd say it boils down to average white folk cowardice and/or indifference. Everyone else has been resisting this evil for generations. 💁🏽‍♀️

This is like saying that a Black person using the N word gives you permission to also use it.

What gives you courage? Please immerse yourself in that right now.

lol gentle reminder that DEI is not illegal. Supporting marginalized groups is not illegal. Anyone reneging on support is making a CHOICE to do so.

They're talking about killing leftist activists. They're talking about murdering people organizing in defense of immigrant communities, doing mutual aid work, and protesting their violence. They are talking about murdering people like me and my friends. We must do more than acknowledge it's fascism.

Hate to break it to you, they're besties. She's already offered Venezuela's oil to the US for military support for her right-wing coalition.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Pre-ordered and sending supportive energy and solidarity! 🙏🏽✊🏽🦋

Read This When Things Fall Apart by Kelly Hayes | Pilsen Community Books A bundle of letters to activists and organizers on the frontlines in catastrophic times from Let This Radicalize You co-author Kelly Hayes In social movements, some heartbreaks are all but inevitable.

My publisher’s been very patient. I’m not doing everything I said I’d do to promote this book (out in a few weeks) because I’m an organizer in a city under federal attack. My days are full and emotionally exhausting. Any help getting the word out means a lot. It's a book people need right now.

Accidentally?

They put up chainlink fences underneath the biggest bridges They pose in Christmas cards with guns as big as all their children They say that Jesus is the way but then they gave him a white face So they don't have to pray to someone they deem lesser than them The South will not rise again Til it's paid for every sin Strange fruit, hard bargain Till the roots, Southern Gotham I'm the one who still loves your ghost I reanimate your bones With my belief And I'm the one who still loves your ghost I reanimate your bones Cause I'm a true believer
