It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

President Trump has insisted that his new tariffs on the country’s largest trading partners will not increase prices for Americans. But a review of how they work suggests that is not the case. Here’s what to know about who pays.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.

Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.

But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.

They aren’t firing for a reason.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

This press conference on the DC crash is an embarrassment. Just a lot of rambling.

Ich muss in diesen Tagen immer wieder an die Worte denken, die der norwegische Ministerpräsident Jens Stoltenberg gefunden hatte nach dem Terroranschlag von Anders Breivik, bei dem 77 Menschen ermordet wurden.
