Much of the cardboard and paper goods strewn about our homes are sold by a single private company, with its name, Uline, stamped on the bottom.

Many may not know that a multibillion-dollar fortune made on those ubiquitous products fuels far-right candidates across the country.

That Cardboard Box in Your Home Is Fueling Election Denial
A previously unreported boom in profits for the shipping supply giant Uline has provided the funds for a deeply conservative Midwestern family to bankroll anti-democracy causes around the country.

I'd also add that I don't care if a Dem becomes "electable" by being indistinguishable from a Reagan Republican. That's not a victory.

Breaking:

Rep. Ro Khanna says the Trump DOJ's production "does not comply with" the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Khanna says he and Rep. Thomas Massie "are exploring all options" — including impeachment of DOJ officials, inherent contempt, or referring individuals for obstruction of justice.

Gonna stop looking at the Epstein Files in a second because I'm frankly way too skeeved out to keep going but I will say this: the CSAM isn't blacked out nearly enough while the faces of guys in ties are obscured by vanta black rectangles the size of the sun.

I hope Mustapha Kharbouch, the Palestinian student who was wrongly accused by many conservatives, sues the hell out of every one.
BREAKING

Law enforcement just identified the suspect of the Brown University shootings as Claudio Valenti, a 48-year-old Portuguese national from Miami, Florida.

Authorities say that he was found in a storage unit dead by suicide.

Today I received FOUR death notifications for people in ICE custody. That's 30 deaths since Trump took office. It's appalling & unacceptable.
 
ICE is required—by law—to ensure detainees are safe & their basic needs are met. It's clear this isn't the case. We NEED answers.

all this bounty from a few seeds passed through a sheep whose dung fertilized the original small farm over a year ago.

a son of bir al-saba' claimed a piece of gaza after the nakba. now his son's son must claim a new piece, this time with barley instead of olive and almond trees

Hello friends, I'm back after a period of absence. The barley has started producing more sprouts; it should be a good season, God willing. Last year there were only 3 plants, now there are 1000! Please share and donate if you can.

The most racist, supremacist garbage is being vomited across Australian media right now. Criticising Israel is an unacceptable threat to Jews so speech must be restricted but we have to ensure the restrictions don’t stop us from saying Muslims are terrorists or that brown people shouldn’t migrate.
