2. Continue building union power
3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics
Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

this seems specifically designed to break mail-in voting (where deadlines are defined by postmark)

Tax returns & other time-sensitive items are now stamped when they reach a regional processing center, which may be days later. Plan deadlines accordingly to avoid penalties.

TIKTOKER SHOT BY ICE HAS INDICTMENT THROWN OUT
Carlitos Ricardo Parias was shot in the elbow by ICE during an immigration arrest in October.
A judge tossed the indictment after finding the government violated his constitutional rights, and it looks intentional.

Zelenskyy calls Russia’s claim of a strike on one of Putin’s residences a “complete fabrication,” a lie designed to sabotage diplomacy, justify more attacks on Kyiv, and excuse Moscow’s refusal to end the war. He warns the world must not stay silent as Russia tries to derail peace.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

And detainees are held for much long periods of time than needed so that these companies can charge more and make billions extra. It’s state sanctioned human trafficking.

Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

Forced removal of ethnic, racial, or religious groups is ethnic cleansing – stop calling it 'deportation'. It's also a crime against humanity.

They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.

One way to quantify the GOP's attack on free and fair elections:
My law firm is litigating 78 voting and election cases in 39 states. This is, by far, the largest caseload we have carried in a non-election year and close to our peak in 2024. The question is how many more can a small firm handle.

A nice thread in which an actual expert patiently explains why the Secretary of Health and Human Service is not simply a liar, but an especially stupid one.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy
