Only caring about your own rights is exactly how you lose them. She/her. Healthcare is a right. Housing is a right.

A great example of how the @nytimes.com centers white Americans and Trump supporters in its anecdotal political coverage. You never see stories like this about Black Democrats whose cities are cracked in Republican gerrymandering to give them Republican elected officials.
They Wanted a Conservative State. They Might Get a Democratic Representative Instead.
The passage of Proposition 50, which redrew California’s congressional map, means that all of the state’s conservative north is likely to be represented by Democrats.

The White House is now citing "national security" for everything it does. Seriously, check out these headlines. It's just the last few weeks.
If you know authoritarian history, then you know how menacing this is.

I’ve made a copy of the 60 Minutes INSIDE CECOT segment. If Substack takes it down, I’ll put it up on my website. I know there are cleaner copies out there, but I kinda like the punk rock bootlegged version. The link is in my pinned post if you haven’t seen it yet.

We the people have the power. Without us, the rich do not have our labor, our spending, our bank accounts, or our engagement. They CANNOT survive without us. We are the ones that make their businesses run.
We are free, not slaves.

this is exactly right. the goal of youngkin and his board of visitors is to rewind the clock back to when UVA was a school for unexceptional children of the state’s conservative elites. even expanding UVA to serve all of the state’s talented students, regardless of background, is too much.

He proposes releasing some ICE prisoners to labor on farms where the employers will “own them” and be responsible for them.
Historians have spent decades meticulously proving the straight line between slavery and modern capitalism’s concept of the laborer—or we could just let them say it.

The camp is to filter out workers for Trumps new Slavery policy where he sells them to businesses.

Wishing everyone a happy Fourth of July!
249 years since we declared independence from a king, the work of living up to our founding promise is more important than ever - and it calls on each of us to do what we can for our country.

I refuse to call an American concentration camp the same thing it calls itself at its attached gift shop
Maybe American journalism should search in the garbage for its self-respect and start taking the same position?

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.
