I swear to god, some of you have already given up. You're already giving up on human rights for a marginalized and relentlessly attacked group of people because maybe the guy you might like in 2025 is gonna run for president 3 fucking years from now. PUSH YOUR FAVE TO BE BETTER.
Now is the time.

I'm not loving a country that pays its adults half as much to teach children to spell as it does to kidnap them.

Pictures of the “parade” in DC are in stark contrast to the pictures and video I’ve seen of Trooping the Colour from earlier in the same day.

If you are stopped by Trump's ICE goons, or any other kind of cops:
I INVOKE MY RIGHTS TO SILENCE AND COUNSEL AND WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MY ATTORNEY PRESENT.
Memorize it.
And don't let ICE in without a JUDICIAL warrant. No, administrative warrants don't count.

The CDC's cruise ship inspectors have been laid off, as well as agency's head epidemiologist for investigating cruise ship outbreaks
That baffled health officials since this program is paid for by cruise ship fees, not taxpayer dollars

This is a great palate cleanser thread. 🧵
being an indie bookseller in the helltimes has felt both very stable and very stabilizing, and part of me wishes everyone could be on my side of the counter for a little while, because I think it would help some of you be a little less cynical and doomy right now. so here is my VERY anecdotal data:

Women don’t wait for change, we make it. We’ve broken barriers, made history, and fought for justice every step of the way. Today, we honor the women who came before us and keep pushing for those who will come after. The fight isn’t over. Let’s get to work.

Fun, but tragic thread.
Federal Agencies have made these beautiful annual data books with tables, charts, and their legislative authority since the start of our country— but they just sit and molder online now while people look at tiktok and think-tank blogs.
Journalists aren't even using them!

There’s a lot of illegal sh*t going on.
So I asked my colleagues on @democrats-judiciary.house.gov to help explain some of the Trump Administration’s illegal actions in this edition of “Is this sh*t legal?”

In 1967, Pittsburgh's inner city produced America’s first EMT service. Comprised solely of Black men and women recruited from the city’s Hill District neighborhood, the paramedics of Freedom House Ambulance became trailblazers in providing pre-hospital and CPR care.

There’s a directory of Black farmers: “The Black Farmers Index.”
Buy and uplift local. Many are small-scale specialists and located in urban areas. I found an organic resource in my area that I will definitely check out.

Just an FYI: Medicaid fraud is rarely perpetrated by beneficiaries. The fraudsters are almost always the doctors and CEO's that administer Medicaid. For example: when a doctor charges the government $600 for an $8 breast pump and pockets the cash and the third party administrator takes a cut.
