It drives me insane that Elon Musk basically did a Holodomor on the third world and it's not treated like a bigger deal. This should be the number one thing that people know him for. This should be in the first paragraph of his Wikipedia entry. This is a history book scale atrocity.
As a direct result of the obscene actions of Russell Vought and Elon Musk in destroying USAID, we can expect “at least 9.4 million additional deaths by 2030, if the current funding trend continues.

About 2.5 million of those deaths are projected to be children under the age of 5.”

it’s true that “the law” does sometimes make certain behaviors harder, yes.

While "moderates" have always called for calm & continuity amid regimes of repressive violence & exploitation, embracing genuine liberation—like militant abolitionist Robert Purvis—has always provided the only way forward towards actual freedom, something "time" & "patience" will never bring about.

New from me: an example of how the voices of "moderation" have ALWAYS gotten it wrong in struggles for civil rights & equality. This would be a very good time to FINALLY collectively figure this out.

This is Lil Cat.

She’s in Mendocino. A little shy. VERY sweet. 8 years old. And was well loved.

Can anyone give her a soft spot to land?

That face!

If not, can you share?

This is precisely what polling places were like for part of the 19th century.

People often traveled long distances by horse to vote. It was a big deal when folks got together this way.

The New York Times reports that the Department of Homeland Security has sent Google, Meta, and other media corporations subpoenas for the names on accounts that criticize ICE enforcement. The department wants to identify Americans who oppose what it’s doing. I’ll save them time.

This is horrific
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics.

Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages.

If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

Also, redefine property to include financial investments outside of retirement accounts. This is how you make billionaires into millionaires.

States have the authority to tax wealth. They do that now through property taxes. The problem is that those taxes are often flat rather than progressive. Make them progressive!
