What we’re seeing these days isn’t new, it’s just sometimes seems new because now it’s being encouraged and condoned again.

"We’ve also found that when social democratic parties propose strongly reducing immigration numbers, this leads to less support for social democratic parties at the ballot box. When progressive parties imitate the right, they weaken their own electoral prospects."

"Copying the radical right is electorally self-defeating. Social democratic parties that try this route lose their own supporters without gaining new ones, and help to legitimise their opponents in the process."

Investors buy bigger share of properties in South Shore than other neighborhoods near Obama Center Investor interest in South Shore has steadily increased with investors buying single family homes and condos.

Always follow the money. Who is benefitting from ICE rousting tenants & damaging the building?

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed

student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism

Jeffries is not incompetent, he simply works for those whose interests are in conflict with ours.

Who donates to Jeffries, and who wants or needs Trump in office? The pro-Israel lobby. Giant corporations. Tech bros and billionaires.

Weaponized incompetence, more like.

Jeffries is a sharp and powerful politician. If he's disappointing us, it's deliberate. When you examine his donors, ideology, and actions, it's clear he performs well for the far right when he chooses.

Republican donors = Republican decisions.

"The overall average stay in jails whose rosters included at least one unhoused person was 21 days, but for unhoused individuals was 32 days β€” almost 50% longer. ... The median length of stay for all bookings in this sample was 4 days, but for unhoused individuals was 14 days."

Graph titled: Unhoused people languish in jail more than 3x as long as the typical defendant.

Compared to the general population, unhoused people are held in jail for 3.5x as long, despite typically being charged with the lowest level crimes

It’s safe to assume that unaffordable cash bail is to blame. No one should have to stay behind bars because they can't afford bail

Again I say Natives need to be included in conversations about class consciousness. Because lots of industries continue accruing capital at our expense while promoting violence against cultural preservation.

16 States Sue HHS After It Threatens to Cut Funds Over Trans Inclusion in Sex Ed Last month, HHS warned dozens of states to drop lessons on transgender health or face millions in funding cuts.

Multiple states are jointly suing the Department of Health and Human Services and its Secretary, RFK Jr., over new rules restricting what can be taught in sexual education classes, after the administration threatened to cut funding to states that acknowledge trans people in their sex ed classes.

This is what I say about sending in the military to β€œfight crime.” Don’t argue about how much crime there is. Don’t accept the premise. Focus on the POTUS turning the military against its own citizens

Tweet from the VP:
Joy Reid has had such a good life in this country. It's been
overwhelmingly kind and gracious to her. She is far wealthier than most.
Yet she oozes with contempt.
My honest, non-trolling advice to Joy Reid is that you'd be a much
happier person if you showed a little gratitude

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

At least one other person, who identified herself on social media as Kat Abughazaleh, a former journalist also running for Congress, landed on the ground during that same protest after she was pushed by a federal law enforcement agent in a camouflage uniform wearing a full face covering, sunglasses and a helmet, video by CNN affiliate WBBM showed.
