Because certainly there's no reason why this history might be terrifyingly relevant right now, here's a link to preorder @stschrader1.bsky.social's "Blue Power" on how police in the US organized to exempt themselves from democratic oversight and control: redemmas.org/titles/48838...

We were excited to welcome @alybatt.bsky.social this Thursday 10/9 on her new book "Free Gifts" exploring the deep relationship between capitalism and the natural world, but it looks like that needs to be rescheduled for the spring.

So we're doing an UNO night instead. redemmas.org/events/game-...

The funniest thing about this is how legit terrified ICE looks.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Started in on @alybatt.bsky.social’s “Free Gifts” in anticipation of her event on 10/9 at @redemmas.org w/ @pmbigger.bsky.social. (It’s really good so far!)
The problem with capitalism, in my account, is not just that it destroys nature or unjustly distributes the material harms and benefits of production. Rather, these problems stem from another, second-order problem: that capitalism limits our ability to treat nonhuman nature as something other than a free gift. It constrains our ability, individually and collectively, to make genuine decisions about how to value and relate to the nonhuman world, and to take responsibility for those decisions. Put simply: capitalism limits our freedom.

Why can't capitalists figure out how to value nature other than through its destruction? Come find out when I talk to Alyssa Battistoni about her new book, Free Gifts, at @redemmas.org next Thursday, October 9! redemmas.org/events/alyss...

There's a lot of speculation about what Trump can & can't do against the left with his new executive orders. To cut thru it, I spoke with FBI counterterrorism veteran turned whistleblower Terry Albury about how he & his old colleagues use the powers they have – and what the average citizen should do

Happening now: at the Broadview ICE facility outside Chicago, Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino and other CBP/ICE agents emerge to patrol Beach Street and escort a vehicle out.

They ordered people out of the street, walked to the end of it and then back to the fence.

Most people who disagree with me aren't Nazis. They're just people who don't share my opinions or fundamental convictions. But some people have fascist politics. I will call those people Nazis, because fascist politics should be named, stigmatized, and shamed.
