Dunnes Stores strikers in Ireland documentary shows that a small group CAN make a difference.
They refused to handle South African goods.

TAPPER: You were the deciding vote that allowed RFK Jr to ascend to the role of Health Secretary. Did you give him too much credit?

CASSIDY: The fact is the scientific community agrees that vaccines are safe. That's all I can say.

Marjorie is getting threats because of Trump… but I’m wondering if she cared when anyone else got death threats because of him because her unyielding support of him assisted in fanning his flames of hate!

Former Trump official: It should be really easy for Republican lawmakers to condemn this type of language. Instead, these lawmakers remain silent. They are such cowards. If you can't call out Trump when he's calling for the death of your fellow lawmakers, what are you willing to call him out for?

hey if you are on our side you’d be masking up outside of protests too :)
A 4-panel doodled comic. Panel 1: A black and white doodle of a square and circle character standing on top of a tiny green hill. The circle is wearing a face mask and lifts their arm as they say “Fighting fascism requires masking beyond protests.” The square looks at them with a blank face. Panel 2: The same scene as slide 1. The square raises both arms and eyebrows and says “Now is not the time to critique people in your side.” The masked circle looks at them with blank expression. Panel 3: The same scene as slides 1 and 2. The circle shrugs both arms and says “It’s been time…”. The square looks at them with blank expression. Panel 4: A doodled line graph of Covid-19 daily infections labeled on the y-axis and each year from 2020-2025 labeled on the x-axis. The graph is filled in with the same green from previous panels. The words “so”, “much”, and “time” are staggered across the graph. At the very end of the graph are a tiny version of the square and circle character standing on top of a 2025 peak.

NEW: ProPublica has found multiple cases of women with underlying health conditions who died when they couldn’t access abortions.

Tierra Walker, a 37-year-old mother, was told by doctors there was no emergency before preeclampsia killed her.

In a sharp reversal this weekend, trump dropped his opposition to a vote to release the Epstein files.

Trump's shift came after it became clear to him that the bill will pass the House with significant support from Republicans.

After denying it all, what is this ?!

Our beloved Alice Wong has joined the ancestors. It was one of the great honors of my life to call Alice my friend, co-author & co-conspirator. She was a true genius, a force of nature the likes of which the world has never seen before. I love you, Alice, and am equal parts grateful and devastated

Only green space in city centre is no longer a green space
Seriously how did this cost €7million?
Its depressing & says Cork says f*ck biodiversity & climate
Ironically the one redeeming feature is that the railings & gates are gone to make it thoroughfare

While other cities are removing concrete to create green parks
Cork is removing green parks to create another concrete plaza

Would love to know what the carbon footprint of all this concrete is?
Not to mention the removal of trees
