The sooner Americans admit to themselves that Republicans are LITERALLY FUCKING NAZIS, the sooner we can begin repairing the damage they have done.

🧵 Many of you never knew of a prison riot that took place in Vietnam. It involved incarcerated U.S. soldiers, most of whom were Black.

Broadway bike lane missed the letter by one vote, and CM Kashmann was absent from the workshop. Probably going to run the amendment anyway, we encourage folks to reach out to Council and show their support.

@moderation.bsky.app

Please lift the "rude" label that you have placed on the profile of @coyotefromtexas.bsky.social.

He does not post anything rude. Rather, he is a tireless antifascist, antiracist and activist who challenges the hate speech of trolls who target members of marginalized groups.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

‘Milk Myths Are Crumbling’

[Without cow’s milk, how will our bones survive? 🦴

The short answer: better.

#Calcium is important. No one’s denying that. But the idea that cow’s milk is the only or best source is laughable. Calcium exists in the soil. Cows get it from plants 🌱 So can you]

Plant-based dairy doesn’t rely on artificial insemination, stolen babies, or secretive slaughterhouses. It doesn’t require people to ignore the screams of animals who just want their babies back.

John Hickenlooper has voted to approve trump's cabinet nominees 10 times this year and doesn't support universal health care. He is way too moderate to be Colorado's senator.

@breslinforsenate.bsky.social is the strong progressive leader that we need in Congress.

The Trump administration on Saturday scrambled to rescind layoffs of hundreds of CDC scientists who were mistakenly fired on Friday night in what appeared to be a substantial procedural lapse.

I don’t wait for permission to fight for what’s right. I’m running to represent Missouri’s First because our community deserves a leader who shows up when it’s hardest and fights for all of us with courage.

I started today at the Panamanian Day Parade Breakfast in Brooklyn.

Panama is El Puente Del Mundo—the bridge of the world—and I know how Panamanians have had to fight for every bit of freedom.

When I'm Mayor, Little Panama will finally get the recognition it deserves.
