Last night, Illinois passed two of the biggest pro-climate laws of 2025

In the final day of session, lawmakers voted for $1.5B in annual transit funding and passed the Clean & Reliable Grid Act

By passing these pro-affordability, pro-climate bills, they've shown what’s possible when states lead 🧡

You’ve probably heard but I have been federally indicted by Trump’s DOJ.

We now have to cover the costs of a campaign *and* a legal battle to preserve our First Amendment rights.

SNAP is probably the most effective federal dollar we spend in terms of long term domestic economic outcomes.

that isn’t why you should support it; you should support it because it is a moral imperative to feed the hungry.

but it’s why even a growth-oriented ghoul shouldn’t oppose it.

The U.S. and the Philippines are the only two countries with a for-profit bail industry, says civil rights lawyer @equalityalec.bsky.social. The insistence that people in pre-trial detention pay to get out of jail leads to "millions of coerced guilty pleas" by poor people each year, he says.

On Threads, the usual suspects are telling ppl about to lose SNAP benefits to just start a garden. As a gardener, I had to laugh. You need at LEAST an acre of land to feed a family of 4. Start-up costs are enormous. But yes, subsistence farming on the balcony of your rental apartment is the answer

A left wing politics that is oriented around your rights and identity as an individual consumer instead of your responsibilities as a member of a social or political community is basically a left aesthetic pasted onto an internalized neoliberal ontology.

I am attracted to people of my gender. Also I am attracted to people not of my gender. That's two things, I guess. Sorta. Anyhow I usually go with "queer" when describing myself because it covers more ground. Why am I explaining myself to an Internet Stranger? JFC.

How Trump is Building a Violent, Shadowy Federal Police Force Trump's DHS appointees have dismantled civil rights guardrails, protected agents' anonymity and encouraged them to wear masks, threatened groups that stood in their way, and overwhelmed legal challenges to their arrests and tactics.

β€œICE, their secret police, is their tool,” said Michelle BranΓ©, a human rights attorney who directed DHS’ ombudsman office under Biden. β€œOnce they have that power, which they have now, there’s nothing stopping them from using it against citizens.”
