Last night, about 60 Chicago activists and organizers gathered to discuss Trump's threatened military occupation of our city. Our convo centered around a worksheet that some friends and I put together this week—a tool that can help us build and strengthen local networks of support and protection.
Mapping Community Defense and Care in Our Neighborhoods
This worksheet can help us prepare for Trump's military interventions at the neighborhood level.

If pundits would like to talk about violence, a terrorist recently shot up the CDC and another assassinated Democratic officials in Minnesota but they sort of let both stories disappear
Not as threatening as motorbikes in DC I know but maybe we could circle back?

Today, I’m signing a package of legislation that protects Illinois workers from the Trump administration’s assault on labor.
We're restoring the hard-fought protections that Trump and Congress are trying to destroy — it means he can't take these rights away from our workforce.

Big Tech + AI Data Centers + Climate Change + OBBB = $$$ for U.S. residential consumers, like now. Take a look at your last two electric bills. Mine increased from $72.04 to $185.68 in ONE MONTH! This kind of change is crushing to people barely hanging on financially.

As electric bills rise, evidence mounts that data centers share blame. States feel pressure to act
Amid rising electric bills, states are under pressure to insulate regular household and business ratepayers from the costs of feeding Big Tech’s energy-hungry data centers

"When people profess an attachment to work, it may be that they experience their jobs as intrinsically satisfying, but it may equally be the case that they are harboring a frustration at the lack of other opportunities for fulfillment that possess the same socially validated status as work."

One set of grandparents, both U.S. born, w/Mexican Indigenous heritage, moved their young family to California during World War II to BUILD F’ING SHIPS TO FIGHT FASCISTS. It’s time to call on our Greatest Generation ancestors from the afterlife for back-up. Vets & Rosa the Riveters gotta be pissed.

New analysis finds Trump and Republicans' budget bill will make the bottom 20% of Americans poorer while the top 10% will get meaningfully richer.
This is the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich from a single law in history.

Republicans snuck H.R. 1319 through committee when we all thought they had adjourned early on recess. It could upend the workforce in devastating ways.
H.R. 1319 would strip rights from millions of workers—by changing what it means to be a worker.
And it’s already moving forward.
