A little bit of history worth knowing. If it’s history, they are trying to wipe it out, to make room for the absurd tales of eternal innocence that bring fascism and bloodshed closer.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Senate update: Republicans are now trying to sneak a backdoor national abortion ban into their government funding bill. Republicans will stop at nothing to control women's health care decisions.

MAHA’s out here all smug with their lies about vaccines and sat fats while the same administration cuts nutrition benefits for children.

Talk to me about removing food dyes when every kid in the U.S. has enough to eat.

We are the richest country in dollars and the poorest in humanity.

When Massachusetts passed a "millionaires tax" in 2023, conservatives claimed the rich would flee.

But two years later, they haven't — and MA has collected $5.7B for infrastructure and public education.

A reminder that positive change can still happen at the state level.

Republicans control the majority in Congress right now.

No matter your political party, the idea that DOJ is outright lying or misleading federal judges should be a five-alarm fire for my colleagues.

When will they act?
“We found over 35 cases in which the judges have specifically said what the government is providing…false information. It might be intentionally false information, including false sworn declarations time and again," says Ryan Goodman, law professor at New York University.

We just read that ICE is buying warheads.

WARHEADS.
No other U.S. president has used the military as their own personal police force against the American people.

We implore the courts to reject Donald Trump's ongoing, illegal actions and definitively affirm states' sovereign right to handle public safety matters.

Every day the news gets crazier—but with AI, rampant misinformation, and newsroom spin, it can be hard to discern what's real.

We're so thrilled to welcome Susan Bordson to our monthly Blue Tennessee meeting this Thursday to help us decipher it all!

The entire incident is infuriating and terrifying. She’s a Latina woman who was working a service job. On her way home late at night, with her headphones in, she was detained for an hour by masked federal agents who wouldn’t give her their names.

I support free speech, but I also think Bluesky should ban anyone that says eating the lower half of a mermaid is not cannibalism

I don’t care if genetically it’s fish flesh not human, in my book it still counts as cannibalism and I expect this platform to uphold that fact

Jesus Christ. DHS has held this guy in the hospital handcuffed to a bed and under constant guard for over a MONTH without ANY warrant or even ANY steps taken towards putting him into the removal system!

This is what Ice is doing in front of the cameras, imagine what they’re doing when no one is filming
I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

This is so, so correct.

One of the worst things tribalism does to a person is detach them from their principles. You might have a lot of opinions of what people deserve, but nobody deserves injustice.

Not the people ICE is abusing, nor people on which political violence is falling, and not Comey
Because this administration thinks everyone believes the rules only matter when it helps “your side” (like they do), they are counting on Comey’s unpopularity to normalize this.

Don’t let it. Whatever you think of him or his actions in the past, etc. this indictment is dangerous and an outrage.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.

Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.
