Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

"This crowd of thousands of people were just assaulted by their government." This is something that the labor movement in Portland won't forget.

Our statement on today's Labor Says ICE OUT rally and the brutal gassing of unionists, families and children by federal forces.

Thousands of us in Portland were peacefully protesting an hour ago with the union workers and ICE fired tear gas at the crowd from the mezzanine just because we were using our voices. They can’t silence us like that.

The arrest of Don Lemon is textbook fascism—a brazen attempt to silence reporting on a criminal regime. Stand up for Don, because our rights stand and fall with those of courageous journalists throughout this country.

Trump's Venezuela oil heist is like a mob takeover of a business in which the previous owners get a cut as long as they keep working and let the mob take most of the loot.

It is NOT easy to get this many unions and labor organizations to mobilize together.

Huge props to my comrades at @portlanddsa.bsky.social & @jwjpdx.bsky.social for making it happen.

Historic things are happening as we continue to build power and assert ourselves collectively!

While there’s some digging in of heels, this debate is a beautiful step towards a unified system that could represent (domestically and globally) a majority of Palestinian people. And what a powerful and most appropriate setting to hold the debate in. Thank you for sharing this hopeful news.
After more than 2 years of Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza, Al Araby TV hosted a rare on-air debate from the ruins of Al-Shifa Hospital, b/w Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qassem, Fatah spokesperson Munther Hayek, & veteran Palestinian writer & lawyer Mustafa Ibrahim. They discuss Oct 7, resistance...

Nicole Wallace breaks down every insult and abusive remark Trump has made to female journalists in the last few weeks.

“We’re either going to normalize this and usher in an era of unprecedented misogyny, or that press corps is going to act as one and say no more”

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106.

12 days of work in 106 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.
