Quote card of Ruth Wilson Gilmore from the series Abolitionist Lessons from the Prison Belts: "It’s crucial to successful movement-building to

No fucking war. The blowback from this day will curse this country for decades.

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

How Democratic Party Leaders Quietly Support Trump's March to War With Iran Some Democrats are fighting to stop Trump's Iran war, but leaders like Chuck Schumer are quietly acquiescing or, worse, supporting an attack.

Is It OK to Earn Rental Income From an ICE Holding Facility?

This does it for my @nytimes.com subscription. I'll miss Wordle. Probably should have cancelled after the 50,000th headline obscuring genocide, but better late than never.

Free David Huerta and free them all. #solidarity
