UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

In light of Third Way's now infamous memo advising the Democrats to avoid using certain words that sound “elitist, divisive, or confusing” to "ordinary" voters who care about "what really matters to the American people," a THREAD.

we used to build household shrines to Going On The Computer and it's no coincidence that as we abandoned these we started straying further from god's light

Many great alternatives!

Thanks to the bill that just passed the budget for ICE is LARGER than the Russian military. ICE now has the 3rd largest military budget in the world after the US military & China... I wonder what that will be used for? 🫥

Please watch and share. It can be easy to get a little lost in the details, but the ENTIRE THING they're doing is absolutely built on a foundation of lies and flagrantly illegal.

This country is becoming unrecognizable. What we’re seeing is state-funded fear. We’ve warned people: keep filming, go live on social media so these moments are documented and shared. This wasn’t a case involving masked ICE agents—but that’s happening too.

Three million Americans marched today. Here’s why we wrote about one American who didn’t.

I scanned dozens of newspapers from around the U.S. & world. On average, international newspapers cover the widespread protests against Trump/Musk and for democracy much more prominently on their covers than those in the U.S.
This isn’t due to deadlines, protests were daytime in the U.S. #handsoff

Imagine this: On the evening of March 8, you and your spouse unlock the door to your apartment building. As you step inside, two men—not in uniform—push their way in behind you. They tell you your visa has been revoked and that they are there to deport you.

‘“Nature has its way of taking out the weak and the not so well and the injured. The eagle likely thought it would be able to take it out quite easily,” Sequeira [the Ontario-based photographer] said. “But, it wasn’t.””

in this house, we have heckin' doggos, we adult like a boss, we drink IPAs, we listen to Matt and Kim, and we also are apparently the only age cohort meaningfully committed to liberal democracy

When Headlines Fail: Trump's Empty IVF Promise and the Woman Who Believed It The Washington Post profiled a woman who lost her job to Project 2025 after voting for Trump because he promised free fertility treatments. The real failure here belongs to the press.
