While national politics take center stage, don’t forget to check in with your local politics (state, county, city and school). Local politics has a significant impact in your day to day, and it’s a place where your voice is heard.

Stop pretending it’s business as usual.

Social work faculty, talk to your students about community organizing, community care, mutual aid. Have them do break outs to talk about the role(s) they want to play right now. Do safety planning work. Share various theories of change.

Do not be complicit.

Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

Hey listeners…

Something I keep coming back to is this —
we’re not always meant to fix what’s heavy.

Sometimes it’s enough to just stay present, keep listening,
and let something beautiful sit beside what hurts.

Music helps with that.
It gives our feels a resting place for a while.

You can’t import another country’s vaccine policy without first importing their actual healthcare system.

Our vaccine recommendations fill structural gaps in our healthcare system, which is widely regarded as fragmented, inaccessible to many, and riven with inequalities.

Harm reduction saves lives
JUST IN: AG Pam Bondi deletes a post touting a chart as proof of the Trump administration's success in reducing drug overdoses—after being informed the data actually reflected the *Biden* administration’s record.

Dr Brugge, Harvard: "Ultimate goal is to prevent breast cancer. Due to Harvard's anti-DEI & antisemitism policies, NIH abruptly cut millions for research that had identified the earliest precursors in breast cancer." Life saving work now is at risk, while oncology profits soar.

Dear listeners,

When the days feel narrow and the noise gets loud, try a song.
Not as escape — as evidence.
Someone, somewhere, once felt this too and made something that still holds.

If hope is hiding, it often hums first.

How many contradictions are there in these 2 minutes?
Trump: "With respect to the insurance companies, I want to meet. There's essentially 14 of them, 10 big. I want to meet with them and say, 'I want you to cut your rates. Way down. Way way down.' And maybe, if they do that, we'll be able to not cut them out. We'll be able to continue to deal w/them."

Watching I Love LA on HBO as a millennial is making me realize my age. So, is this when one realizes that they’re actually an adult?

ProPublica spoke to about 150 people who had lived in homeless encampments when cities cleared them out in “sweeps.”

We distributed notecards so people could tell us about the toll in their own words.

Zohran Mamdani standing beside the President of the United States just said that the US is funding Israel's genocide and yet can't take care of its own unhoused children on live television.

I never thought I'd see something like that in my lifetime

Remember how Trump said ICE targets “violent criminals?”

Trump’s own DOJ now reports that ONLY 2.5% of the people ICE arrested in Chicago have any criminal history.

That means 97.5% have ZERO criminal record. They were targeted because they were of Latino ethnicity. This is what fascism looks like

This is from Autocracy, Inc, about how modern autocratic propaganda works.

I consider this every time I decide what to share and how to frame it.
