Residents are finding all sorts of ways to fight ICE: They're recording and reporting. They're wheatpasting and sharing know-your-rights materials. And they're stepping up to care for each other, from delivering groceries to walking kids to school. 51st.news/dc-residents...

Israel is "essentially admitting in public to what amounts to a war crime,” said Jodie Ginsberg, CEO of the Committee to Protect Journalists.

She said Israel "can act with this level of impunity because no international government has really taken it to task.”

BBC International Editor Jeremy Bowen has confirmed that the entire Al Jazeera team in Gaza City has been killed.

New York City protest down Fifth Ave. was huge. Attendees can take the next step of urging their Sens. Schumer and Gillibrand to deny unanimous consent until the courts say the Trump administration is in compliance. Until then, Senate Dems are not using every parliamentary tool to delay.

"My name is Greta Thunberg and I am from Sweden. If you see this video, we have been intercepted and kidnapped in international waters by the Israeli occupational forces, or forces that support Israel."

This is where you call your reps and tell them you don’t want the govt to escalate protest situations, you believe the US has the right to protest. Demand they repudiate Mike Johnson’s escalation justifications.

Takes five seconds, and might mean you can still get COVID boosters.

Any editors interested in a piece on the weaponization of white womens safety to target immigrants?

Feed somebody. Drive some people to the doctor. Find out who gives toiletries packets out to people in need near you.

Figure out who needs care & who's providing it in your practical, physical vicinity & start there (I promise someone does).

Start first. Figure out the big picture after.

This is one of my favorite poems of all time, written by the wonderful & greatly missed John M. Ford.

I’ve been thinking about it a lot recently. So I thought I would share it.

Here's a 2017 article about the plan to use feminist and 'left-wing' language to 'split the letters'. I genuinely cannot tell you how enraging it's been to watch it be planned and executed to the letter, out in the open, and still see people falling for it.

If newspapers were worth anything, they'd all be printing that contrasts like this are why DOGE exists and is shutting down the CFPB

I think it's worth repeating plainly that a federal judge halted Musk's federal funding freeze nearly two weeks ago but funds are still very much being frozen in violation of the court order.

This happened to me in Trump 1.0 when I called in and the dude said, “wow lots of calls about this issue today!” and I asked how many is a lot and he said “Seventeen!”

Motivates me to pick up the phone every time.
