Full Remarks: AOC in Los Angeles, California | Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

This movement is not about partisan labels or purity tests, but about class solidarity - the over 36,000 people who came out to LA to stand here together and say: our lives deserve dignity and respect.

Trump regime security forces attacked and abducted an 80 year old woman, Lynne McFarland for standing her ground against a bill that would deny education to immigrant children. The US falls deeper into fascism. #3E

From a poetry collection by Mary Oliver, where after a hundred poems showcasing gentle observations on nature and animals, she hits you with this
OF THE EMPIRE We will be known as a culture that feared death and adored power, that tried to vanquish insecurity for the few and cared little for the penury of the many. We will be known as a culture that taught and rewarded the amassing of things, that spoke little if at all about the quality of life for people (other people), for dogs, for rivers. All the world, in our eyes, they will say, was a commodity. And they will say that this structure was held together politically, which it was, and they will say also that our politics was no more than an apparatus to accommodate the feelings of the heart, and that the heart, in those days, was small, and hard, and full of meanness.

From “Parable of the Talents” by Octavia Butler

A screenshot of a poem. The poem reads: Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.

Dems, pathetic. They had the opportunity to show the public what resistance looks like, but they failed to organize themselves. All those who sat and pretended things are normal are complicit. There were a few real ones but not enough

Incredible footage of a massive anti-Trump/Musk protest that broke out in New York City.

MAGA is awakening a sleeping giant.
