While I wholeheartedly agree that we must collectively step up, I believe the Salt March was in 1930 and independence from GB didn’t happen until after WWII. People must understand that something this many years in the making will not be stopped overnight

We still haven’t found all of the bodies of the little girls who drowned over July 4th weekend.

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Speaker Johnson has:

❌ Shut down your government
❌ Canceled all legislative business
❌ Refused to swear in Rep.-Elect Grijalva

Why? Because she’s the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

Thank you again for everyone trying to donate a kidney for me.
I don't have any new updates or anything--they're still working through the list and yeah we are really beginning to run out of time. If you're on the fence but would like to try, get started at iggyland.org
Thank you everyone!

Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement?

The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy.

At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

As I said earlier today on @msnbc.com’s Deadline White House, the President's decision to deploy the National Guard was politically driven. This deployment is illegal, and I will use every tool at my disposal to challenge this unconstitutional act.

Imagine being a kid in Chicago and having a Black Hawk helicopter land on your roof, then being zip tied and dragged from your home in the middle of the night.

Time for the DA and state AG to convene grand juries about this dangerous and illegal misconduct by federal agents.

Norman Bourlag was an Iowan who saved more than one billion lives with his work on disease resistant wheat.

There's a reason why Iowa is known for feeding the world: our farmers are top notch.

Unfortunately, Ashley Hinson supports policies that are bankrupting them instead of supporting them.

What’s behind rising unemployment for Black workers? For the last five years, I’ve given the same answer in response to questions about any one-month increase in the Black unemployment rate. Given the relatively small sample size used to calculate the n...

A must read for ANYONE who wants to understand why Black women are experiencing a uniquely bad labor market and why the 300,000 number isn't telling the full story.

Dr. Valerie Wilson gets deep into the data around job losses and why paying attention to Black women matters. #blacksky

I think they are trying to avoid physical clashes and keep it in the courts, which I fully understand and respect. I hear people’s frustration with the pace, which I also feel. This situation has been building for years. It won’t end overnight

The fact is, the budget Rs put forward already had them cutting huge swaths of positions next year… They’re just using this as an excuse to try to paint it as Ds fault

Marylanders are angry and fearful — but they're not surprised by this lack of federal support.

We all deserve more from our federal government.

No state in the country can fill the gap when the federal government abandons its citizens.

But in Maryland, we will continue to lower costs and fight for our state’s families.

While the federal government has left Maryland to fend for themselves, we’ve partnered with the public and private sectors to help provide assistance to federal employees through programs like SNAP, Medicaid, and more.

Here in Maryland, we leave no one behind.

President Trump failed to make a deal.

Now families across our state and country are left with the fallout.

From what I’ve heard, those sign on bonuses are paid out overtime and our contingent on staying employed for a certain amount of time…

Every day Republicans are choosing to keep the government closed rather than lower your health care costs.

Let’s go, y’all

The people of Los Angeles deserve more than quick soundbites and sensationalized coverage.

Support L.A. TACO today and help us launch our first documentary series.

Together, we can make sure the stories of L.A. are told — and remembered: givebutter.com/lataco_october

People are being robbed.

We got a second temporary restraining order last night, pausing the president’s attempts to deploy National Guard to Oregon. The president keeps trying to find workarounds.

We look forward to having a hearing on the merits of the case.
