Abolish corporate welfare. US taxpayers should not be underwriting these companies' poverty wages.
The Boston Globe identified the companies in Massachusetts that employ the most SNAP recipients. A key stat: "In Massachusetts, 74% of working-age recipients of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program are employed, half of them full-time."

Federal immigration enforcement officials called off a planned raid on Canal Street today shortly before it was slated to begin.

New Yorkers who heard about the raid showed up at the garage where the feds had gathered, and as federal agents tried to leave, the NYPD cleared the way for them.

The problem with fetishizing the rule of law is that people have to break the law to resist fascism, state violence, and oppression. This has always been true, and is very much the case RIGHT NOW.

If the state of Delaware prohibited companies incorporated there from spending on elections in any way, Citizens United would be dead in the water.

Delaware incorporates more companies than any other state.

It’s a blue state. Let’s get cracking on moving Delaware lawmakers on this!

I thought this was fairly well established, but: here's another new study showing that wind and solar complement each other and make for a more stable grid when combined.

Manufacturing Consent - movie and book by Noam Chomsky
If there's one thing the mainstream news media love to overlook, it's the impact of the mainstream news media. The petite Tea Party in all its elite-backed astroturfiness was hailed like a sacred comet; the historically huge No Kings was played down by the NY Times, among other publications.

Two oaths (enlisted and officers) - “the enlisted oath is also intentionally anchored in obedience of the chain of command. The accountability lies one level up.”…[at the officers (whose oath requires them to ensure the commands are lawful)]. Curious how it’s working so far???
This article is from @markhertling.bsky.social - a retired three-star Army general - and everyone should read it.

We have a tendency in weather to focus on the shiny object. Right now that shiny object is the cold, which is elusive.
The reality: over the past week, the US has seen a Blow Torch. 100s of heat records to just a dozen cold. The heat continues through midweek.

I know people are mocking this question but short haul flights like the ones between DC and NY are among the most carbon intensive and need to be eliminated. And the actual time difference btwn the two is negligible when you factor in security. I was surprised he flew.
Reporter to Mamdani (mocking): "Why did you fly here? Aren't trains greener?"

Mamdani (with tolerant smile): "I will use every form of transit, and I want to make sure they're affordable in NYC."

A reporter asks if Mamdani stands by calling Trump a fascist. Mamdani starts to give a delicate answer.

Trump (smiles, pats Mamdani's arm): "That's OK, you can just say yes. It's easier. I don't mind."
