Stop streaming ICE recruitment ads NOW! The Trump administration has funneled billions of dollars into these dystopian ICE recruitment ads. Meanwhile, cities are being terrorized by ICE agents who are running rampant with abuses of power, s...

Sick of the questions wondering if Zohran is "too young" at 34 from the same people who think Trump isn't "too old" at 79 & failing health.

BTW, Jefferson was 33, Madison was 25, Hamilton was 21, & Monroe was 18, & y'all trust them as infallible.

Vote Zohran Mamdani on Nov 4. Let's do this.

@mehdirhasan.bsky.social Followup with Shay for her perspective.

NYC is out in droves. This after yesterday ICE raided Canal Street.

Starting next Tuesday, air traffic controllers will not be paid for working. Be sure to thank Donald Trump, Mike Johnson, Sean Duffy and all other Republicans for further risking our safety and the well-being of critical federal workers.

They have nothing new to say. You know they realize we are in the streets for free. Although since everything they say is projection, they must pay their supporters like with those Craigslist ads.

One woman's quest to reclaim the ugly history of Black maternal health Artist Michelle Browder's Mothers of Gynecology project is an act of resistance.

ICE agents tried using the Azteca de Oro parking lot in Joliet as a staging area—owner Ivette Nunez called the cops, cited her no-trespassing rule, and boom—minutes later, the agents were gone. Proof that a firm “not on my property” still works.

A display of copies of Let This Radicalize You on a table in front of a sign that reads: "Let This Radicalize You offers stories, strategy and heart for the kind of collective care and resistance we're building together today. It helps us move from reacting to organizing. Showing how ordinary people protect each other, build power, and keep hope alive. Take a copy. Read it. Stay connected."

I donated some copies of Let This Radicalize You for distribution at an ICE watch training for folks who want to join school patrols in a nearby neighborhood. Not everyone got a copy, because 120 people showed up for that training tonight. I am endlessly proud of Chicago.

The lengths they go are unbelievable.

Nineteen years ago, on October 7, 2006, Anna Politkovskaya was assassinated by Putin's hitmen.
She was the first to tell the truth about Russia's mass crimes in Chechnya, which foreshadowed those in Syria, Ukraine, Africa and elsewhere. They could have been prevented.
Almost no one listened to her.

Federal Agents Storm South Shore Building, Detaining Families and Children Families were woken by flashbangs and helicopters as hundreds of federal agents raided their homes. Days later, neighbors are still searching for the missing.

Good reporting on the South Shore raid from South Side weekly here.

Confirms one thing I was told but didn't put in my own piece because I didn't have a second source and it seemed too insane: border agents segregated arrested residents by race

I am so surprised by Kennedy asking this. An important question and not a suck up from him.

"How the Word is Passed" is my favourite non-fiction book of all time, both because of its information and because of its prose. An adaptation for young readers is amazing to hear about.

If a full accounting of Epstein’s crimes - and his accomplices - is ever made public, people on the left and the right are going to feel really dumb that we’ve been arguing with each other while the elites of both parties pal around and do abhorrent shit.

Speaking of voices under attack…can we be just as loud about Black journalists and comedians who are silenced, even by our so-called liberal outlets.

From @jimsciutto.bsky.social, thus far just on Xitter.

Is there a Black Farmers Network database where you can look up which Black farms are nearest to you and/or are willing to ship to you? 🤔

How can we describe Trump's economic interventions? We’ll discuss the long list of actions the Trump administration has taken in the economy. Also: making sense of the Fed’s dot plot.

I sat down with my friends at Marketplace to discuss America's shift away from the invisible hand, toward the guiding hand, the heavy hand, and the grabbing hand.

Honestly, it's a pretty great conversation (and it starts at 4:44).

I warned last October that if Donald Trump returned to the White House, the fate of the free press would depend on the willingness of corporate media executives to fight for it.

It's not going well. www.mediamatters.org/donald-trump...

Vaneers- pre empting the inevitable decay and loss.

Dentures- reacting when it's too late.

This is really the politics of fluoride. It's the politics of dehumanization and politics of the body.
