Folks we support often want to give back directly to us, but we generally donโ€™t have a specific need & instead ask them to take care of their neighbors.

We want to create an ecosystem of support, a world in which we help folks when they need, not a tit for tat exchange of services for one another.

Refugee charities install safe rooms and relocate amid rise in far-right threats Exclusive: One NGO placed on an online hitlist had to temporarily close its office owing to harassing phone calls Refugee support organisations have been forced to install safe rooms in their premises, relocate to less visible sites and in some cases close their offices in response to the threat of far-right violence. Half of NGOs and charities supporting people seeking refuge have faced threats, a โ€œhostile environmentโ€ of protest and safety concerns since the riots of 2024, according to research documents seen by the Guardian.

Their big question was like, "why the sticker" I told them it was on the truck when I bought it-and they suggested I remove it. Obnoxious creatures.

This is the energy we need from Democrats right now. If red state Republicans redraw their congressional maps to rig the midterms, blue state Democrats must even the playing field by responding in kind. Tell your governor and legislators in your state to fight back: indivisible.org/resource/red...

Newsom: "He doesn't play by a different set of rules. He doesn't believe in the rules. As a consequence, we need to disabuse ourselves of the way things have been done. It's not enough to just hold hands, have a candlelight vigil, talk about way the world should be...we have got to meet fire w/fire"

NEW: Nathan Albers once co-owned a company that schemed to hire and conceal undocumented workers.

Now his company could make hundreds of millions from work on the nation's largest detention camp.

Donโ€™t forget, we may have stopped #publiclands sales in the Big BS Bill, but there are still logging and drilling mandates which would be equally devastating, plus rescission of roadless rule. Keep calling! #hiking #tahoe #camping #fishing #nature #wilderness #fdt #StopTheChop

(202) 224-3121 to contact your reps. Tell them to vote NO on legislation that would destroy public lands, the Endangered Species Act and NEPA:
HR471 the โ€œFix our Forests Actโ€.
HR1110, HR1820, HR204, HR1897. Tell them NO to weakening our environmental laws and to keep their hands off public lands.

Donโ€™t forget to take a moment this weekend to call your reps! The SAVE Act would disenfranchise millions of voters, and the Senate is also debating the Republican budget bill which would impose major cuts to SSI and Medicare. Tell your reps to vote NO. While youโ€™re at it, tell them NO on these โฌ‡๏ธ too

How Cattle Ranching Destroys Earthโ€™s Food Webs Many factors affect biodiversity, but meat production is particularly destructive.

Nature is all about connections. We are part of a planet that needs other organisms for healthy lands, clean air and water.

Cattle ranching is a key threat to those creatures, from prairie dogs to coyotes to fish, frogs and birds.
