BREAKING: The House Natural Resources Committee voted to send HR 4255, the Mexican gray wolf delisting bill, to the full House. The bill relies on misinformation when making the claim that Mexican gray wolves have met recovery criteria. Urge your Rep. to OPPOSE this bill: https://bit.ly/466LD4G

How an errand for a 12-year-old immigrant in Minneapolis became an underground operation Some immigrants in Minneapolis have said they're scared to go out because of ICE agents across the city. When one 12-year-old needed to run an errand, it triggered a network of underground volunteers.

Still frustrated by how this narrative erases the incredible disability justice organizing that takes place online.

Like Crips for eSims for Gaza, which has raised *over 2 million CAD* to give Palestinians life-saving internet access throughout the genocide:

This is what revisionist history looks like, in real time. And this also is why it might appear that archaeologists and historians have to dig deep to discover the existence of powerful women and marginalized groups -- because their legacies are so often erased.

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

omg did this one drop already 🥺

post from @h_lee_justine on threads: AOC was just on live giving us advice of what to do and she had very specific instructions depending on if your reps were Dem or repub. I'll share them but first things first you know l've been begging you to call your reps. AOC highlighted that is the BEST THING to do right now and that they really do listen when they get non stop calls. So please pledge to me that you're gonna make some calls tomorrow to both LOCAL AND DC OFFICES of your reps. Tell me below. Now if your...

...rep is Democrat, she wants you to ask them to obstruct ALL CABINET PICKS until Elon is no longer committing illegal acts in the fed gov. It's the one power Dems have right now. Zero appointments, full obstruction until Elon is OUT! Ask for that Tom. Use the 5 calls app or website to make it easy. Again, LOCAL AND DC Now if your rep is Republican, you're going to tell them that you will start looking for and campaigning for a challenger in their district this week if they don't act to...

...protect our data, the value of the US dollar, and integrity in our fed gov. She said she knows this seems like it won't do anything but to trust her, these people care. And they're hoping you get so complacent you're silent and they don't have to worry about re election. If you have any kind of platform with a following, tell them you'll use that to campaign against them. If you're a part of a large community group, even just a community garden, tell them you'll tell everyone locally...

..what they are or aren't doing to protect us from the coup by Elon Musk. You know people in your community. You have a voice. Tell them specifically how you'll use it. It matters guys. Everyone is scared right now. Apply pressure and tell everyone you know to

thread with @aoc.bsky.social’s advice for this moment, and it involves calling your reps.

not sure how? use 5calls.org (they have an app too).

For the sake of clarity; sexism, racism, fascism, nationalism, homophobia, transphobia, colonialism, apartheid, pro-birth, military power, and all adjacent right-wing ideologies are a form of weakness I do not tolerate. If you're a conservative, then block me and move on. You don't belong here.

Reposting this to possible save someones life.

We stand with Canada and Mexico!

Community self defense, tenant organizing, mutual aid, mask blocs, cop watching, start/join a jail support project, organize/participate in political education, + more is needed. Look out for one another. Just don't get wrapped up in the liberal outrage & despair machine.

Not sure where to start?👇

My sister and some friends have told me stories already of these pamphlets as people talk about them at work. My sister is taking a class and the professor made students aware of their rights. Community is what Trump seeks to destroy. No matter the path going forward, community is what will save us.
