Please join the ACLU. They don't have the money to campaign like political parties or the backing of the UN. And the work they do is so important, but doesn't get enough coverage in the media.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

I agree with @ezralevin.bsky.social the Surrender Dems didn't fight for our healthcare. They won't fight to defend the results of the midterms when the fascist GOP will falsely claim they won in a classic autocratic move. They will roll over. Again and again and again. So what do we do?
You NEED to know what's likely to happen in the midterms and what we need to do about it.

"They would not be trying SO hard to get you to give up if they were winning" -- @parkroseperma.bsky.social absolutely nails it. The fascist regime and their supporters are fragmented, incompetent and demoralised, so we need to fight them even harder while we're winning.

While reporting this, we came across this ProPublica story from 2019 about a Border Patrol Facebook group.

Hardly any differences between this and other cop pages we've reported on. It's all the same dehumanization and racism, just different targets (w/ Chicago cops—usually it's Black people).

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

Whoa: A federal court just barred Texas from using its new congressional map, drawn by the GOP to target Dems.

"Substantial evidence shows that Texas racially gerrymandered the 2025 Map."

Court says the old map must be used in 2026. Appeals are certain. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Neighborhood bystanders follow them into the forest and film them, harass them, and shame them until they leave.

Great news that the Senate has passed the bill forcing the DOJ to release its Epstein file. Now Bondi must comply. But our work cannot stop there. We need to force the Treasury to release the Epstein bank records too. I have a bill to make that happen. FOLLOW THE MONEY.

Without Chris Pappas winning in New Hampshire, Democrats won’t have a chance at taking back a majority in the Senate. That’s why this race is being targeted by GOP super PACs and Republicans across the country.

You might not have caught what just happened on the Senate floor, but the Senate just “deemed as passed” the Epstein resolution.

That means as soon as it arrives from the House, it automatically passes the Senate (with no amendments) and heads to the President’s desk.

Wow.
