Instead of breaking up, the workers galvanized. Tens of thousands of workers from different ethnic background marched through Lawrence, holding flags and singing in the streets. Their determination eventually won out and the moment is remembered as the "Bread and Roses Strike."

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton.

I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.

On the eve of #NoKings

The effect of Trump’s policies on health insurance have been revealed

A 60 year couple in Kentucky making $85,000 might pay $23,700 more

In Nevada-$18,100 more

In Minnesota-$15,500

In Maryland-$13,700

It’s absolutely unsustainable

THIS is why there is a Trump shutdown

Trump just signed a terrifying order classifying anyone challenging his regime or espousing anti-MAGA worldviews as “domestic terrorists.” It directs National Joint Terrorism Task Force, DOJ & Treasury to investigate & prosecute individuals/nonprofits/funders & freeze assets.🧵

Whatever else you think of him, I don't think he is insincere about this stuff, and it should be recognized as extraordinary that he, Pritzker, and other governors are talking about the federal government in these terms. It's not normal political rhetoric, it's the language of existential emergency.
