This is good news.

Automatic license plate readers endanger everyone's privacy and civil liberties. More cities must follow Flagstaff's lead, and end their partnerships with Flock and other surveillance companies.
Flagstaff City Council votes to end use of automated license plate cameras
The Flagstaff Police Department immediately deactivated the cameras following the vote.

That same 30% are the unabashed fascists in the country. It's always 30 to 35%. 30% would say to bring back chattel slavery if they were sure the survey was anonymous.

Jason Crow and Brittany Pettersen signed this shit. Stunningly out of touch.
In a country where the cost of living rises but wages don't, where illness can leave you in financial ruin, and where the young feel they have no chance at any upward mobility, 86 House Democrats joined Republicans to pass a resolution denouncing “the horrors of socialism.” trib.al/YmIjeGU
86 Democrats Condemn Socialism as Zohran Mamdani Meets With Trump

For far too many families, the cost of childcare is driving them out of the city they love.

New Yorkers deserve to be able to afford to raise families here.

You look for cracks everywhere to exploit against fascists. Period. I think some people seem confused about the state of things in this country.

Many of us suspected this, but it appears millions of Americans have voted for a pedophile three times now.

Will this hard evidence help people acknowledge the mistake and exit the cult? I wish I weren't pessimistic about this.

DSA stands in absolute opposition to the proposed deal to pass Trump's billionaire budget. Healthcare is a right, not a bargaining chip.

NEW: Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky has conceded. A stunning defeat for a MAGA media fixture who built a national profile on claims of a "complete gang takeover" of Aurora that led President Trump to visit and falsely proclaim the city "conquered" by an immigrant gang

#CancelSpotify

They are running ICE ads.

They aren't the only company, but I think we should make an example out of Spotify and do an economic boycott against companies supporting masked, armed agents terrorizing innocent Americans with impunity.

Spread the word.
