a woman reached out to donate 500,000 delta skymiles to get people home to MN as they are released from custody in TX.

we're getting flights booked today. it should be enough to get at least 15 people home.

delta should be doing for free since they take ICE money.

The regime is arresting journalists.

Journalism is necessary to any functioning democracy.

Four journalists have been arrested for documenting atrocities:

Don Lemon

Trahern Jeen Crews

Georgia Fort

Lydell Lundy

We can’t accept this.

They want to silence us. All of us.

I am hearing that RFK Jr.’s minions are going to go after HPV vaccines. I’ve got problems with these people and now you’re going to hear about them, first from a personal perspective and then from a professional one.

It all boils down to this: WE HAVE A SAFE VACCINE THAT PREVENTS CANCER.

it is the same playbook everywhere. “vote for us! we will make you great again by punishing the people you hate! do not pay attention to the fact that we’re also shoveling your money into the pockets of the uber wealthy and building a giant boot to step on your face too (preferably forever)”
The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions.

It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.

Real tired of public services and goods getting gutted by gov't shortsightedness and/or catering to private interest.
A new report from Ontario's largest healthcare union shows Doug Ford is planning cuts that will eliminate over 10,000 healthcare workers from hospitals.

10,000 nurses, PSWs, and frontline staff – gone.

This video weaves together so much for our current moment, about hardship and stories and change, and so much of what matters in our human experience. Well worth watching. Well worth supporting. 💖

Every time pple think of saying, “why aren’t more publications covering [topic xyz],“ please don’t. This is why. been in media for 35 years & rich assholes destroyed it. media of past no longer exists. We are trying. Subscribe. But let go of the idea of “media” from 10-20-30 years ago. That’s gone.

The CEO of a Canadian company supplying ICE questioned why the news media does not report on companies that "sell socks to the U.S. government."

Sociopaths always rely on moral equivalence, but claiming socks deserve the same scrutiny as armoured assault vehicles is absolutely morally bankrupt.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

On NPR on Friday, there was a story of a 4-year-old--an American citizen--who hasn't left her house since early December, not even to play in the yard. And her 8-year-old brother recently stopped going to school, too. Their father is undocumented, and the family doesn't want to risk him being taken.

part of this is like, conservatives projecting; part of this is conservatives unable to imagine politics without money; and part of this is dudes who are so out of touch with feminized labor that they think children's birthday parties exist as a spontaneous act of parthogenesis

I think @sarahjeong.bsky.social said it's because they devalue women's labor and a LOT of this Scary Logistics stuff comes from people who don't understand that basically all of the civic life they enjoy is created with the help of free labor, largely by women.
Tho I will say, in his defense, he's not the first person to be confused by how quickly the romance authors & readers can whip up finely tuned logistics out of nothing. 😂

It’s pretty basic, capitalism depends on individualism & we interrupt it by practicing simple human collectivism. You can theorize it but theory’s not the point because it’s actually organic. The capitalist is astounded that people are willing to share & give. It must be bankrolled by a billionaire.
