this court says that allowing EPA to regulate carbon emissions is a "major question" that demands congressional debate. but allowing the president to, with a flick of the wrist, end a straightforward constitutional right is something that must be allowed to stand?

Whole lot of people saying “she must resign” who should be saying “I am introducing articles of impeachment.”
Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

An MSNBC anchor just definitively claimed Padilla didn't identify himself when video clearly shows he did. So fucking irresponsible. This is how lies spread.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

note that this completely inverts the public justification for the deportation scheme. they claim they’re deporting criminals, but they deported Kilmar without knowledge of a crime, and now that they supposedly found one they’re bringing him BACK.
🚨🚨🚨 Kilmar Abrego Garcia is on his way back to the U.S. from El Salvador to face criminal charges.

Exclusive | Economists Raise Questions About Quality of U.S. Inflation Data

I think if you grabbed any famous thinker from centuries ago and showed them Wikipedia and told them it was free for anyone to access, they would say it is humanity's crowning achievement and would be indifferent to the moon landings, modern medicine, flight, or anything else you showed them

Doctors at the CDC say children should receive Covid vaccines. A disgraced ex-environmental lawyer who spent 20 years abusing heroin says they shouldn't. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

My flat out favorite part of the campaign office is how it’s now a resource for people to get whatever they need: clothes, food, toiletries, chargers, books, and a bunch of other stuff.
If you have items you’d like to donate, drop by our office at 7016 N Clark Street when we’re open! :-)

Someone came to the campaign office today to harass @katmabu.bsky.social. I saw Kat not only show care & empathy for them, but when advised to lock the door, she flatly refused because she didn’t want people not to receive the resources they need. These women had their benefits cut & Kat helped them

I feel like a guy dying in office right as a horrific bill passes by on a single vote is actually perfect time to talk about this. He's dead, we're the ones who have to live with the selfishness of these ghouls literally clinging to power till their dying breath.
Millennials don’t have to post about “the gerontocracy” when someone’s just died a horrible death from cancer. The millennial passion for dunking on “the olds” can wait a day. Also, I guarantee that millennials will be the most insistent on holding onto their power when they reach that age.

Horrible crap buried in the 389 page behemoth Congress is trying to shove down our throats: blocking any state from regulating AI for the next decade. If you don’t want to bow down to tech bros in this way, get involved at fairshareusa.org www.techpolicy.press/us-house-com...

It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.
