Larry Summers: "This is way beyond anything Nixon ever did ... this is the stuff of democracies giving way to authoritarianism. Firing statisticians goes with threatening the heads of newspapers, launching assaults on universities, launching assaults on law firms. This is really scary stuff."

If Harris were President, I’d be posting about healthcare for all and free lunches for kids and more funding for schools and journalism.
But, Trump is President so I have to post about concentration camps and thugs kidnapping people at work and kids working overnight in meat packing plants.

Gerrymandering undermines the power of marginalized communities by manipulating district boundaries to weaken their collective voice. For Black, Latino, Indigenous, immigrant, low-income, and other disenfranchised groups, this often means remaining unheard in the places where decisions are made.

That little fact about the plague that Arizonan died of is sending me into spirals. People said it’s no biggie about that plague death, but I’m not so sure. A 100% mortality rate is bad, no?

Metadata Shows the FBI’s ‘Raw’ Jeffrey Epstein Prison Video Was Likely Modified
There is no evidence the footage was deceptively manipulated, but ambiguities around how the video was processed may further fuel conspiracy theories about Epstein's death.

This is Patty Hartman, a 17 year veteran of the Justice Department. She was fired on Monday by Pam Bondi. She is warning of a wave of retribution inside the agency. You must hear her words for yourself.

We shouldn't need a Black Women’s Equal Pay Day, but here we are. Still underpaid. Still undervalued.
66 cents on the dollar means we lose thousands every year, for doing the same job.
Over a lifetime? That’s hundreds of thousands gone.

You can’t just vote the fascism away, you’ll need to build from the ground up to make sure it can’t take hold of power again after it’s defeated and that starts by overhauling the current system that rewards wealth hoarders over the well being of the community and nation. #3E #BindingChaos
