Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

Fox host advocating for executing homeless people? Yes
ABC comic suggesting Trumpers are using a death cynically? No

Not feeling the Independence Day vibe this year - instead, let’s celebrate this queen, Alaska’s own Indigenous civil rights warrior Elizabeth Peratrovich, born on this day, and let her example inspire us to resist!

Can’t stop thinking about all the people who’ve lost their jobs. Losing your job in this country, it’s like annihilation—not least because it usually means losing health care, too. And for so many people, their entire sector has been eviscerated. I wouldn’t be able to feed my kids. It’s terrifying.
