@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high.
This is the way, yβallβwe protect each other, and we know it.
Remember: RFK Jr. fired his last CDC director because she refused to ram through his anti-vax agenda.
Yesterday, RFK Jr.βs handpicked vaccine skeptics threw out DECADES of settled science β and Donald Trump gave a thumbs-up.
This will hurt American kids and families.

We hear that Putin and Trump (or their emissaries) have been secretly consulting about a settlement to the war. Given the inherent traps of allowing an aggressor to decide the outcome of his war, I try here to give a sense of how negotiations might actually work.

The important thing to bear in mind as Trump's popularity begins to wobble is that the disastrous economic consequences of the things he's done in the first 10 months of this term have not even *begun* to hit. We've been coasting on the fumes of the economy he inherited and soon they'll be gone.

I'm loving Jon's photos- he's selecting his best of 60 yrs. work, and it gives me even more respect for his creative process.

Respect for NYPD, but please get the numbers right on protest attendance. Same fractional counting in 2003 before the Iraq invasion.
100k people are on the subway at any given moment. They had 10X that on the streets today.
Do you think Iβd explain my masterstroke if there remained the slightest chance of you affecting its outcome? I made the NYPD woke 35 minutes ago.

The teeny tiny No Kings things in very red areas are so huge
Say like five or six people show up. None of them knew each other before. Suddenly theyβre all friends. And maybe from that you get a group that does longer-term organizing that can punch *way* above its weight considering where it is
This is a) utterly terrifying and b) vital. Donβt turn away. The crisis is fixable because it is, ultimately, political. We know the chemistry. We decline the action necessary.
