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.

Full resignation letter from Demetre C. Daskalakis, a CDC leader, does not hold back.
"The recent shooting at CDC is not why I am resigning. My grandfather, who I am named after, stood up to fascist forces in Greece and lost his life doing so. I am resigning to make him and his legacy proud."

Huge thank you to Judge Susan Illston, who ordered a two-week pause on the DOGE’s mass layoff plans blocking two dozen agencies from carrying out the largest wave of job cuts yet. She ruled the move was illegal without congressional approval.

When the open letter from univ prez against Trump over-reach was released on Tues morning, it had 180 signers. By Tues evening, over 270.
Through the day Wed (yesterday) it went into mid-300s.
This morning, Thurs, starts at more than 400.
This is significant. (Point of my post.)

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.
This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.
Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.
And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

I still haven’t figured out why we don’t believe this. The data is so clear.
The United States of America is the only major country on earth that does not guarantee health care as a human right.
The result: We rank dead last among wealthy nations in life expectancy.
We must end that international embarrassment.
Yes. We need Medicare for All.
