This is a really big deal: a union leader wins in Texas.. and beats a billionaire backed candidate who led anti public school culture wars…. .h/t @zephcapo.bsky.social
HUGE TEXAS UNION WIN: @iamunion.bsky.social leader Taylor Rehmet was just elected to the Texas Senate! This win kicks off a wave of union candidates across the state.
While parties are trying to reconnect with the working class, we’re running union members up and down the ballot — and winning. ✊

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him.
The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

Taking some time for myself every day especially for some joy, a laugh, and to learn something new and surprising. I love that.
In a time where everything happens everywhere at once, it's more than okay to take time to breathe, log off and distance yourself from social media and news.
It's overwhelming and that's purposeful, so take time for yourself.
In the end, we're all trying to get by.

Stand with us every Saturday rain of shine at Odell Veterans Memorial park in Beverly MA for one hour from 11-12. Your voice matters even in a “blue state”. #protest #resist #beverly

Tell Citizens Bank to cut off it's services to GeoGroup NOW! ...
As someone who used to be a GEO Group employee, I can confirm that this is par for the course for how these facilities operate. Their policies usually say they’re not allowed to deny detainees water, but I witnessed plenty of supervisors do just that multiple times. To juveniles, no less! #MeltICE
A U.S. citizen who was detained by immigration agents and accused of obstructing an arrest, before her case was ultimately dismissed, says she is still traumatized by what happened.
