ICE’s response to her?

Fuck the kids.

That’s pro-lifeAF

In Trump’s Federal Work Force Cuts, Black Women Are Among the Hardest Hit

Black women have every right to be furious. The irresponsible choices of white voters has for many of us, taken our livelihood with consequences for our homes, the education of our children, our ability to care for parents.

It’s unconscionable.

I think it’s worth noting this piece generated the most unsubscribes I’ve seen in a while, and the newsletter version had the lowest open rate in many months. These horrors persist in part because too many people go to great pains to avoid them.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

On Tuesday, we are going to do The State of Our Union. We will go live at 7 pm EST and will go to midnight or 1 am. We will break this up into 30 minute blocks. We will have CBC members, labor leaders, civil rights, voting rights, business, grassroots activists and millennials.

Thank you!

MSNBC worries about the perception that they’re not fair to R’s while Fox eats an $800m libel settlement to preserve its ability to lie about Ds.

That’s the asymmetry that gives illiberalism a structural advantage.

This is evil. Pure evil.

The Great Resegregation The Trump administration’s attacks on DEI are aimed at reversing the civil-rights movement.

Measles outbreak in Texas rises to at least 58 cases — the state's worst in over 30 years A measles outbreak in Texas​ has led to 58 confirmed cases, making it the state's worst in over 30 years — and local health officials say additional cases​ are likely to occur.

In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children.

We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread.

This would be completely illegal. But you wouldn’t know that from reading this post, the headline, or the lede. Unbelievably bad.

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

CDC Posts, Then Deletes, Data on Bird Flu Transmission Between Cats and People The data, which appeared fleetingly online on Wednesday, confirmed transmission in two households. Scientists called on the agency to release the full report.

Cats that became infected with bird flu might have spread the virus to humans in the same household and vice versa, according to data that briefly appeared online in a report from the CDC but then abruptly vanished.

Black History Month takes on added significance this year as the nation engages, once again, in active forgetting or what the late Toni Morrison called “disremembering”.

I did this identical post on twitter, threads & Bluesky. Only Zuckerberg’s threads warned me not to use such a mean word to describe Trump.

This is such a terrible headline, I hesitated to share because I don't know what to say other than legacy media is broken. Games and puzzles have replaced fearless journalism.

Support independent media.

Its an incompetency
