the thing is, this is more likely to be true for small time entrepreneurs

e.g. the neighborhood tamale lady would beat out the billionaire bc she knows 1. how to hustle 2. a skill people all over the world value

billionaires don’t even know how to talk to people they’re not paying

While Starbucks workers are on ULP strike across the country, community allies are standing in solidarity in all kinds of ways! Besides vowing to not buy Starbucks ANYWHERE, members of DSA Labor are running strike kitchens to feed baristas while they hold the picket line.

Yes.
Each semester I go in my classroom and I try to figure out what we would use to block the doors, if it would be safe to crawl out the windows, where we could hide if there was a mass shooter in campus. It’s such an indictment of this country how we have normalized these preventable tragedies.

In other words, if you're non-white, ICE/CBP will assume you are a non-citizen until you can prove otherwise, and they won't accept your Real ID as proof of citizenship.
Bovino, the man overseeing mass deportations, publicly declared that we must all have our papers on us, at all times, or we could be stopped, harassed, kidnapped, and detained, as they did with the man in this case, who is a US citizen.

URGENT: I need a Minneapolis immigration attorney for a client in the hospital and likely detained by ICE. If anyone here has contacts with someone, or better yet practices in this area, please reach out to me via DM.

Brown University says there's an active shooter on campus. Emergency scanner says multiple victims, but unclear how many.

Video footage viewed by the Brown Daily Herald "depicted several individuals lying on the ground near the Sciences Library appearing to be assisted by police."

Epstein’s affection for young women was no secret.

As Donald Trump put it in New York Magazine in 2002, “It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.”

Tesla U.S. sales dropped to a near three-year low in November to 39,800 vehicles, according to data from Cox Automotive. The development was highly anticipated after the expiration of the electric vehicle tax credit on September 30 pulled many EV sales forward on the calendar.

This is just some ordinary dude no one had ever heard of, quietly getting by, and the administration has decided in a fit of pique to hound him for the rest of his life because otherwise they'd have to tacitly admit they're capricious incompetent villains. Just let him live, ffs

An important story about an apparent effort to intimidate a @motherjones.com reporter from reporting on a top Pentagon aide and Hegseth mentor—a fascinating look at reporting in the Era of Trump 2.0.
DOUBLE SCOOP! As @dfriedman.bsky.social was investigating a top Hegseth aide tied to a Goodreads page listing porno books featuring "Asian wife swapping" and sex with transgender women, MAGA hitman Jack Posobiec threatened to do a hit job on Dan. Smells like a Pentagon attempt at intimidation.
I asked the Pentagon about Pete Hegseth's mentor. Then the threats started.
Journalism in the second Trump administration gets personal.

These should also not be called arrests, because they are not. They are abductions. Illegal abductions.
Nobody should call these "erroneous" arrests. It's not happening by accident. Flooding cities with poorly trained ICE thugs to harass and racially profile is the entire point.
