A small dog is lying on a soft, textured surface, possibly a blanket or a piece of furniture. The dog is wearing a knitted sweater with an argyle pattern featuring diamond shapes in various shades. The sweater covers most of the dog's body, leaving its head and legs exposed. The dog's fur is light brown and appears to be short and slightly wiry. Its ears are folded back, and its eyes are closed, indicating it is resting. The dog's legs are tucked under its body, and its tail is not visible. The surface on which the dog is lying has a plush appearance, with visible fibers and a slightly uneven texture.

BREAKING: We're filing a petition for the immediate release of Mario Guevara, a journalist who is being detained by ICE because of his reporting on law enforcement activity.

The First Amendment is clear: Journalists cannot be detained for doing their jobs.

The image shows a sketchbook with a drawing on one of its pages. The drawing depicts a person with short, layered hair and large hoop earrings. The sketch is done in black ink with loose, flowing lines. The page is open and lies flat on a textured surface. To the right of the sketchbook, there is a clear pen with a white cap resting on the surface. The pen is positioned parallel to the right edge of the sketchbook. On the left side of the open page, there are some scribbles and sketches visible, indicating previous use of the sketchbook.

Just finished reading “On Writing” by Stephen King. I don’t think of myself as a writer, but I am a storyteller and it was the inspiration I needed to get out of a funk. Upward momentum.

Public media is under threat. Millions depend on the NPR Network every day. Silencing journalism is one way to silence truth and erode the power of the people.

Today, President Trump signed a bill into law that will eliminate $1.1B of federal funding for public media. This devastating act tipped the threat against journalism in America into a crisis.

Millions depend on the NPR Network. Now, we’re counting on you.

Social media is like junk food. I’m stressed. Sometimes I just want to binge animal videos. Don’t judge.

Sorry. No one probably needs to read this. I’m just screaming into the void.

How times have changed. A US border security officer just threw my passport back at me with disdain. Why? Maybe he didn’t like that I’m a dual US/Canadian citizen who currently lives in Canada? Does it help or hurt that I’m a person of color? Is this how America is going to be great?

A movement is calling for an 'economic blackout' on Friday. Here's what to know The People's Union USA, a grassroots group, is calling on Americans to join a national boycott by not shopping for 24 hours on Friday.

BREAKING: The House passed a budget framework that would slash billions in Medicaid funding.

Medicaid is a lifeline for tens of millions of Americans, including people with disabilities, women, seniors, and children. The Senate must reject these dangerous cuts.

From the article: “…because these women were so systematically excised from our understanding of the canon and the development of the novel that they gave it a name. That name is the Great Forgetting.”

We should aspire to this

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS IN CASE OF ICE: CONOCE TUS DERECHOS EN CASO DE ENCUENTRO CON ICE:

DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR. ICE cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge. Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door. NO ABRAS TU PUERTA. ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizándola debajo de la puerta.

ASK THEM TO LEAVE. If ICE doesn't have a warrant, tell them you do not consent for them to enter your home and ask them to leave. At work, ICE cannot enter employee-only areas without permission. 2 PÍDALES QUE SE VAYAN. Si ICE no tiene una orden judicial, diles que no das tu consentimiento para que entren a tu casa y pídeles que se vayan. En el trabajo, ICE no puede ingresar a áreas exclusivas para empleados sin permiso.

REMAIN SILENT. You have the right to remain silent. If the agents ask you questions, tell them, "I wish to remain silent." PERMANECE EN SILENCIO. Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio. Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles: "Deseo permanecer en silencio".

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.
