JUST IN: In a new article, NPR reports on how MeidasTouch is one of the few pro-democracy video podcasts topping YouTube’s rankings, calling the network the "pacesetter of the pack.”
Anti-Trump podcast MeidasTouch is rivaling Joe Rogan. Does it have staying power?
The left-leaning media outfit has surged in Donald Trump's second term, appealing to progressives outraged by the president. Still, the online streaming world remains dominated by right-wing voices.

Adrian Martinez tried to defend a man ICE was harassing. Video shows six agents swarming him. He struggles but doesn’t lay hands on them. They take him to the ground & shove him into a CBP vehicle.

Last year, Kroger's CEO raked in $15.4 million — 457x more than its typical employee. Kroger also announced $7.5 billion in stock buybacks.
I don't want to hear that Kroger can't afford to treat its employees fairly.
Solidarity to these workers.

Kroger has shut down four Colorado locations as grocery strike begins.
The UFCW just launched these initial walk outs, but the strike could grow dramatically and spread across multiple strikes.
Over 100,000 supermarket workers have authorized strikes across the West and PNW.

“ICE” as snatching people from churches now. Never forget they said this👇🏾
MAN AT CHURCH: “We don’t want this in our property.”
ICE: “The whole country is our property.”
No IDs shown, non-government out of state plates, basic tactical vests that just say police. Who are these men?

In the last 20 or so minutes I’ve seen LAPD officers shove women to the ground without provocation, rip a sign out of a man’s hand and then swing a baton into his leg and raise a less-lethal launcher to aim
directly at a protester (which I’m 99% is a major policy violation.)
