Most of us are worried, but many feel stuck on what to do. If that's the way you feel, check out this list below!
We can’t fix it alone, but I know we can together. 💚

It seems like a swell time to let our sleeping neighbors and friends know we are in 1930s Germany and nothing less than a mass peaceful movement against the plutocracy's lawlessness is going to stop this from getting worse.

Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

Here's some moral clarity.
Zoom out. Not that China is a pillar of justice. But it just shows that things could be different.
Or just use the imagination of a just society. it doesn't take much.
What's happening right now is NOT ACCEPTABLE.
We cannot normalize it. None of it is OK.

Mass deportations don’t protect working people—they weaken labor standards, silence organizing and empower bad employers.

What I have come to realize is that everything about the Obama years was just putting a nice wrapper on the Bush era and calling it progress. It was all messaging and optics with zero substance. I feel incredibly naive to have not seen it at the time.

Great news for those involved in the #digitalexodus migration out of BigTech.
ProtonMail, one of the recommended alternatives to Google's Gmail/Docs/Drive, introduced Proton Sheets, enabling sharing of Excel files which it previously was unable to do.

Trump has now conducted 28 boat strikes, killing over 100 people.
Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.
He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.
This is a danger to us all.
