This afternoon, the Trump administration officially shut down the LGBTQ Youth Specialized Services program within the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. The program allowed callers under 25 to speak with counselors trained to support LGBTQ youth, an option that has now been eliminated.

i can’t express how much i stan rick steves
I’m a hardworking, taxpaying, churchgoing, grandkid-raising American citizen. And if I work all day long and want to go home, smoke a joint & just stare at the fireplace for 3 hours…that’s my civil liberty.

In the spring of 2008, I feared America was on the verge of war with Iran — and, believing that it’s good style to get to know people before you bomb them, I made “Rick Steves’ Iran,” a one-hour special that could (and would) only debut on PBS. Sadly, this special has become pertinent again today.

Here are some of the public lands that would be sold off in the Pacific Northwest under the Republican tax bill.

As long as immigration sweeps are happening in the communities that farm workers live in, farm workers will continue being detained and deported.
Farm workers deserve REAL protections, so they can continue working without fear.

After early reprieve from immigration enforcement, farming industry reckons with raids
The Trump administration's immigration enforcement mostly left farms and meat packing plants alone, until coordinated raids last week. Now, President Trump is signaling continued support for farmers.

Of course corporate media paints the wrong picture. They’re part of the oligarchy. Don’t watch protests on the news. Go to one. Flood socials with images of the peace and community. Corporate media isn’t going to. We have to. We are the new media. I’ll see you at No Kings 6/14.
But if a few people in masks start lighting stuff on fire? Then you have news. This creates an *enormous* attentional advantage towards the most violent and chaotic kind of protest.
