Thank you. And yes I subscribe to @51st.news they’re great.
I love your book about Smedley Butler—It’s so good & timely!

I hope we move to more independent & less wealthy owned journalism, I really like City Cast DC — they’re hiring a few of the metro staff and there’s also the worker-led non-profit newsroom The 51st.

If I were to go live to do a marathon fundraising drive for Minneapolis, what charity could I or should I raise money for? Where would a few thousand dollars really help right now?

DO NOT SQUANDER LEVERAGE: REIN BACK ICE. DEMAND these things
Text SIGN PZBEUB to 50409 — ICE: THE CONDITIONS FOR FUNDING SO FAR ARE NOT ENOUGH. IT IS NOT ENOUGH TO SIMPLY GET ICE TO COMPLY WITH THE LAW. We cannot trust their promises. Don't trust the GOP or the regime.. ICE agents should already have been complying with the law. YOU MUST IMPOSE more stringent CONDITIONS: NO FUNDS until Stephen, Miller, Kristi Noem are removed. ALSO: REMOVE AGENTS guilty of brutality and misconduct; or with records of domestic violence, DUI, firearms offences; remove those who have used excessive force. REMOVE agents who are proud boys or are pardoned January 6th insurrectionists. BAN ON AGENTS WEARING MASKS. BAN on DEPORTING US CITIZENS AND IMMIGRANTS WITH LEGAL STATUS REQUIRE JUDICIAL WARRANTS to enter homes or make arrests END ARREST QUOTAS BODY CAMERAS to be worn ADD REQUIREMENTS THAT ICE MUST NOT BE ON DUTY ANYWHERE DURING ELECTIONS-- NOT ON ELECTION DAY, NOT ON ON ANY PRECEDING DAYS WHEN ELECTIONS ARE OPEN ADD requirements that FORBID QUID PRO QUOS (such as the demand for voter rolls in exchange for removing ICE) ICE MUST BE RESTRICTED TO ACTUAL BORDERS LIMIT HOMELAND SECURITY'S ABILITY TO TRANSFER FUNDS INTERNALLY STOP SURVEILLANCE AND DATA COLLECTION AND ELECTRONIC FACIAL RECOGNITION BEING USED AGAINTS PROTESTERS AND EVERY ONE REQUIRE COORDINATION WITH LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT MANDATE CONDITIONS INSIDE ICE'S concentration camps RELEASE ALL CHILDREN DETAINED BY ICE WITH THEIR PARENTS BAN ROVING ICE PATROLS MAKE KRISTI NOEM PAY THE GOVERNMENT BACK FOR HER TWO JETS *****CLAWBACK *** THE ** EXCESS ** MONEY ** YOU** APPROPRIATED ** FOR** ICE**: MAKE THE HAVE TO SEEK FUNDING YEAR BY YEAR AND MAKE THAT FUNDING CONTINGENT ON ROOT AND BRANCH REFORM A This may be the last chance you have for leverage.

As a soccer mom, this story absolutely gutted me. Martin helped his mom save up money so she could take time off from work to go to the tournament with him. Then, he had to go home without her.
Martin, an 18-year-old citizen and soccer player, traveled with his Madison-area team to Minneapolis for a Futsal tournament (which my kid's team was going to play in, then opted out). While there, ICE stopped Martin and took his mom, who has been detained since.

💔Absolutely heartbreaking. Four women are dead after being deported under the Trump administration. Their deaths were preventable and this responsibility lies with this administration.

Safety is a human right.

We need pathways to legal status, not deportations.

Dear Liberals,

No, you don’t ever, ever have to forgive or forget what Trump voters have done. They can beg forgiveness and never get it and that’s ok. These people brought you mass ‘detention centers’ and government agents murdering citizens in the streets. Not ok.

They can burn in hell.

This is a blockbuster report. Last spring, the National Security Agency (NSA) detected evidence of an unusual phone call between an individual associated with foreign intelligence and a person close to Donald Trump, according to a whistleblower’s attorney briefed on the existence of the call.

The highly sensitive communique, which has roiled Washington over the past week, was brought to the attention of Gabbard – but rather than allowing NSA officials to distribute the information further, she took a paper copy of the intelligence directly to the president’s chief of staff, Susie Wiles

“From tank instructor to FPV drone pilot, Brittney Shki-Giizis learned Ukrainian, fought in a Ukrainian unit, and lost friends. Her warning is blunt: a ceasefire without security guarantees isn’t peace. It’s a pause before Russia attacks again.”

“Reading through the emails, it’s possible to see that Epstein himself coordinated pushback against #MeToo. Looking back, it seems obvious that sinking #MeToo also led to where we are now: a place where laws simply don’t apply if you have enough money and power. The same players are involved.”

very good rejoinder to a pretty shoddy and motivated piece. my main comment though is that i would not concede the idea that roosevelt — who essentially coined “liberalism” as americans have understood it — was an “anti-liberal”
Useful, clarifying examination of Trumpism from @nilsgilman.bsky.social, focusing on its foundational elements of "extractive" capitalism, white nationalism, "the systematic dismantling of labor protections," abuses of power, self dealing, and corruption:
