May all beings be free, safe and protected, and know peace and joy! We need to wake up and rise up for the wellbeing of all living beings and act from the wisdom of inter-being to dislodge the fascist capture of the US government.

When you hear of a billionaire losing money on a pricey hobby or side business — whether it's a race horse or a newspaper — remember that those losses can actually create huge write-offs that let the ultrarich get away with paying little or no income tax.

There is a laundry list of things 20 GOP Senators & 5 Reps could sign onto tomorrow if they suddenly now have genuine concerns for equal & fair representation in 🇺🇸 government. That they will support exactly zero of these, while complaining about VA/CA & trying to suppress more votes, is the tell.
- DC/PR/USVI statehood
- Enlarging the House
- MMDs
- New VRA
- Totally revamping SCOTUS: bsky.app/profile/mcop...
- Automatic universal voter registration
- Rewriting the "national emergency" laws: bsky.app/profile/mcop...
- Subordinating the Senate: bsky.app/profile/mcop...
Etc.

Again, the needs to be & all the committees & commissions that want to Do A Popularism & focus on Kitchen Table Issues are engaged in a category mistake about What Democrats Must Do the next time they ever have power.

Why should you care about the AJC, despite its numerous recent failures in journalism?
1. The FBI just raided the Fulton County elections office to help Trump rehash his "Stop the Steal" myth
2. The city is hosting the World Cup semis
3. All statewide row offices are up for reelection in November
Police body cam footage shows confusion at FBI raid of Fulton elections office
Body camera footage obtained by the AJC indicates issues with the search warrant slowed the FBI, even as agents came prepared to take 2020 ballots by force.

Minneapolis residents are trying a new tactic to slow and deter federal agents from entering city neighborhoods. Called filter blockades, they’re pop-up block parties in the middle of city streets, and they’ve already earned the ire of Trump border czar Tom Homan (1) www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Just something deeply wrong when a government cannot follow processes and values that most human beings would deem minimally acceptable.
Metry and her husband of 4 years go to DHS to get their I-130 in motion. "Good news" a DHS employee told them, the form to start her naturalization was approved.

DHS employee asks the husband to follow him through a secure door. When it locks behind him, ICE detains his wife to deport her.
EXCLUSIVE: Terez Metry was 13 when her family fled to Tennessee from Egypt in 2011. Then, they left her behind. She only recently discovered she had an order of removal from 2011. But she was following the legal path to citizenship. On Monday, at a routine DHS meeting, Metry was detained.
