One concrete thing for Congress to do either now or after the midterms is to improve by passing legislation independent oversight at government prisons as well as ensure that Congressional members/staff can visit at any moment without needing approval.

Christine Matthews is a Republican political consultant who's invented another term for "soccer mom."

Image is a screenshot excerpt from an ABC News Article: 'Weighted vest women After observing women in her neighborhood wearing weighted vests, Matthews conducted a national poll in which she discovered that such vests were common among educated, affluent, suburban white women with children. Interestingly, Matthews discovered that these women were perfectly politically split. "This is a group of voters who report in '24 that -- just by a small margin -- that they had sort of been leaning towards Trump, but now they're split on the generic ballot," Matthews told ABC, nicknaming them "weighted vest women."

Private prison executives casually discussed the "3,000 arrests per day" quota in earnings calls—despite the Department of Justice previously denying any quota exists. This is fueling immigration raids nationwide while companies rake in record profits.
In Earnings Calls, Private Prison Executives Revel in Profiting Off ICE Arrests
“Our business is perfectly aligned with the demands of this moment,” CoreCivic CEO Damon Hininger said on the call.

Purdue to the rescue of IU student newspaper, whose institution was attempting censorship. Details in alt!
Sara Whitmer • • • 1h • 8 I'm sure many of you have heard by now that earlier this week, IU k*lled the print edition of its student paper, the IDS. The issue that was supposed to print this week contained criticism of the Whitten regime and IUs further slide into scist control, and they couldn't allow that to happen during Homecoming, when all the rich alumni are in town. Enter Purdue! The Purdue student paper, The Exponent, owns its own presses. Yesterday, in an act of tremendous solidarity with their biggest rival school, they printed the forbidden issue of the IDS. They then drove it to Bloomington overnight and stocked all of the IDS boxes on campus, just in time for Homecoming. Solidarity is what makes us stronger, and solidarity will be what ultimately allows us to triumph, if we can ever truly get it together. I hope everyone has a fun, safe day if they're going out today, and I hope we can think about what acts of solidarity we can begin taking to really make this movement MOVE - beyond a permitted expression of upset into more active resistance. 75 12 comments

Organizers in Oakland expect more than 15,000 people out on October 18th! It'll be like a party since they're holding it out next to Lake Merritt. We all really need a positive event like this. Be there to show the strength of the resistance in the Bay Area and link up with your community.
