"One week after President Trump recklessly escalated his threat to take over Greenland, Neil Young is gifting the country’s residents free access to his entire music catalog."
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
Stay free
Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.
Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.
Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.
Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents. They’ve had their necks kneeled on. They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear. @propublica.org @nicolefoy.bsky.social @ericumansky.bsky.social

My cartoon:
Washington DC needs statehood like never before.
Democrats have failed to prioritize it in the past. Maybe this latest authoritarian Trump move will wake them up.
I wrote about Trump’s attempted seizure of Washington—and how his actions are entirely consistent with his regard for the law. newrepublic.com/article/1990...
shoutout to everyone out there, especially at the Times, who spent years “just asking questions” and pretending to care about women’s sports
blood is on your hands
trans rights are human rights and you should have remembered that instead of signing onto a genocidal project
Philly showin' up today
Trans right ARE human rights! Thanks Gov. Walz. Giving up support for trans folk will not win any Republicans to vote for Democrats.
Happy Pride month, all! Way back in 2018 I made these galaxy pride flags. They were shared many thousands of times, featured on Vice, and even made their way onto book covers and into video games.
Here are the original ones I created (in no particular order!) so Bluesky can have them too. 💙
Outrageous

Me on hour 14 of dragging Republican Medicaid cuts for filth and giving them no end in sight
Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.
No one has heard from you in 43 days.
As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.
Trump is destroying our economy!! People wake up! Yes, we all know Hegseth isn’t ever was or never will be qualified to be this country’s defense against foreign adversaries. He’s no surprise but our economy and border we can’t take our eye off this terrible situation
National security ain’t supposed to be a family affair, but apparently Pete Hegseth missed that memo.
Leaking classified military plans—TWICE—the second time on a personal Signal chat to friends and family? That man has no business being Defense Secretary. He’s a threat, not a leader.
Reminder that IMLS supports Libby and Interlibrary Loan, so if you like things like rural borrowers having the same access as city residents and immunocompromised people being able to still use their library despite ableds demanding libraries open without masks…time to push back.
Tallahassee HandsOff protest was lit. Lots of honking in support.
The US Naval Academy is banning books from its library, including about the Holocaust.
Books are not the enemy; ignorance is the enemy.

FYI, I’m leaving the stream up as long as Corey Booker can keep it going. It’s the least I can do.
Every American should be streaming this, the Democrats are doing something, there is a lot of truth FINALLY being said out loud in Congress.
Ope, Padilla bringing climate into Booker’s talk right now (hour 19) www.youtube.com/live/v2utlMx...
right now X is showing 350k+ views, YouTube 52k
Watched "A Hidden Life" by Terence Malik on Hulu yesterday. Powerful, touching, beautiful story of an Austrian farmer who defies the draft in 1943 because the war is wrong and Hitler is evil. One small man standing up against tyranny. Wow.

Fact: They didn’t fear what breaking the Dept of Education would do to their kids. Their kids are in fancy private schools.
They are dismantling the Dept of Ed so our kids have no choice but to be undereducated and work for their kids.
This isn't a walk in the park
But we got this.
Hang in there people
And
RESIST
