Nobody should call these "erroneous" arrests. It's not happening by accident. Flooding cities with poorly trained ICE thugs to harass and racially profile is the entire point.

Yesterday, Trump authorized NVIDIA to sell advanced chips tech directly to China, undermining our strategic advantage, after they gave money to his inauguration fund, ballroom & more.
But this isn't the first time. Just last week, I called out a similar scheme Trump pulled with the UAE this summer.

She shouldn't have to keep doing this by herself. She is supposedly a member of a political party and every single one of her *colleagues* should be BLASTING the fascist in chief. ALL OF THEM. Where is the solidarity???

Centrism is not reasonable. It stands in limbo between the view that all humans should be treated well as citizens of planet Earth and the view that only a tiny few powerful people matter.
When you stand in that limbo, you're actually just floating, lost.
It's not "reasonable." It's delusion.

Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract.
Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

these epstein emails are pretty damning. i sure hope that we haven't spent the last couple years in a cultural backslide where men are seemingly allowed to openly and gleefully fantasize about dominating young women without any threat of reproach

People are out here blaming RCV for Jacob's win. And I cannot stress this enough: RCV had literally nothing to do with it. Everything about this outcome was entirely predictable. Jacob had huge structural advantages: compliant local media, off-cycle election, PAC $, patronage networks.
