ICE Arrests David Huerta, Beloved Labor Leader and SEIU California President β€œWe all collectively have to object to this madness,” said Huerta after his violent arrest for witnessing an ICE raid.

Have national Dems, who claim to want to "win back" the working class, said anything yet about ICE injuring and arresting the head of the SEIU of California?

The American shopping mall is being reinvented | CNN Business As major retailers and department stores continue closing, malls are looking for ways to boost foot traffic and sales.

American malls were never dead. The decades-old design just needed to be revisited.

Absolute queen! πŸ‘‘

Yesterday, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum delivered her 100-day address to a PACKED ZΓ³calo.

"We will not return to the neoliberal model. We will not return to the regime of privileges and corruption... We say: For the good of all, first the poor."

Trump just withdrew the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement.

The US now joins Iran, Libya, and Yemen as the only countries in the world not in the agreement.

The problem is that U.S. politicians think this is 2001 and they can just make up lies to do whatever they want.

Why is tiktok a β€œnational security” but you use it for your political campaign? It’s giving β€œthere’s wmds in Iraq” type energy

Americans can see right through your shit babe

Exciting to see new, independent projects spin up to decentralize the atproto ecosystem! Building alternative infrastructure is a big step towards giving users more choice and making the network billionaire-proof.

it's just so insulting how stupid they think we are. they're so desperate to blame the most vulnerable for crises created by the most powerful, they so badly want a culture war to stave off any consciousness of how oil execs/billionaires/defunding everything for police are killing us all

The Elizabeth Line this year moved more people than the 18 lanes of the 401 freeway, the widest in North America.

Traffic is simply a geometry problem, and adding one more lane won't fix it.
