The Federal government, along with the state of Texas, continue their crusade against the Prairieland Defendants. Des is only one of the 18 protesters that the Trump administration is attempting to paint as an “antifa” terrorist group.

Sad to hear of Peter Watkins death. Never met him, but did organize a screening of his loooong masterpiece La Commune back in 2002 at Filmhuis Cavia in Amsterdam, with many of the people involved in making that film in attendance. Apparently I also cooked dinner for the intermission.

This is going to be especially fun in the wake of Mamdani’s victory last night…come through and talk about what might be possible with a socialist mayor in the largest city in America!
This Wednesday, I'm excited to join Daniel Wortel-London @redemmas.org to talk about his important book "The Menace of Prosperity"—a sweeping history of NYC's urban political economy, and a powerful case that "we cannot afford to finance progressive policies through taxes on a regressive economy."

Electing Zohran Mamdani today will be a huge step forward for advancing a populist socialist agenda at the municipal level, which is great—but that victory is also going to make the Trump regime look weaker, which is also great.

Excited to launch my latest paper on a federal offshore wind authority.
Trump is decimating OSW. But it is a *critical* decarb industry employing hundreds of union workers.
When we have our next chance for federal action, we have to be ready to supercharge OSW buildout. Here's our plan:

@govpritzker.illinois.gov owns every arrest and act of violence against protesters this morning. He is aiding and abetting Operation Midway Blitz by allowing state cops to do this. He tells us to film ICE. His cops have shoved me around for filming this morning.

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.
"Jones, 27, is among the residents left at 7500 S. South Shore Drive who are trying to piece together what remains after an early morning, high-powered federal immigration raid led to the arrests of dozens of their neighbors at their South Shore apartment building."

If you spent even one second of the last decade indulging the free speech claims made by the American right in earnest, I genuinely think you're lacking in intelligence. I do not think you have what it takes to deliver sound commentary on American politics.
