Nazi references aside, the SAVE Act DOES NOT ACTUALLY ALLOW REAL ID TO SERVE AS AN ACCEPTABLE ID FORM. I'm so fucking tired .

DHS is holding a 2-month-old BABY at a detention facility in Texas.
Last night, Juan Nicolás was rushed to the hospital after choking on his own vomit & being unable to breathe.
This demands accountability — not a blank check for more cruelty.

still feel like I should get to sue the FCC for tricking me into watching this very "it happened" interview where no one even said anything shocking
~3M views in 18hrs. I’m sure there are some people who would’ve only watched it on the broadcast (they don’t use YT), but given that this show averages about ~2.6M viewers/show, I’d say the story itself was great marketing for the interview. “Congratulations, you played yourself”

There have been hugely successful campaigns to fight prison and jail construction across the country, especially in rural areas. These bring together hunters, environmentalists, Indigenous people, prison abolitionists, and immigrant advocates as well as people concerned about land use.

Oh, I have been waiting for this piece! You throw a stone at a presidential campaign, and it has a staffer who cut their teeth on Jesse Jackson's campaign, particularly Black women.
Spent today talking to just a few of the Black women who credit Jesse Jackson with their start in national politics. By inviting them in, he ensured they would help shape democracy for years to come. My latest on the coalition he built as part of his towering legacy: 19thnews.org/2026/02/jess...
‘He gave me my wings’: Jesse Jackson opened doors for Black women in politics
Jackson, who died Tuesday, worked to diversify the electorate and brought Black women into Democratic politics who ascended to positions of power.

We're a bit more than halfway through the month, so this is your semi-regular reminder most libraries have a way for patrons to request purchases! It's Black History month in the anti-DEI, extra anti-Black era, so I suggest a particular focus on books by Black authors, especially indie + self-pub!
