Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted. To join me in standing up for the freedom to read, go to pen.org/action. @penamerica.bsky.social @topshelfcomix.bsky.social @idwpublishing.com

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:

1. Break up corporate monopolies

2. Continue building union power

3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics

Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

In New York, ICE detained a busload of farmworkers that were actively involved in a union drive.

In Washington state, ICE dragged a farmworkers’ rights activist and leader out of his car to detain him.

Be warned: attacking unions is a hallmark of fascism.

This morning we learned that a well-known white nationalist met with the President and convinced him to fire several qualified generals for no reason.

My concern is that this is the new normal. And that service to country no longer means anything to those in power.

It’s weird* that the president can just decide to put a huge tax on American businesses without congress even being a little bit involved.

The boy in this photo is Tymofii, 3 years and 9 months old. He didn't survive...

His mom Valeriia shared that Tymofii was returning home from the playground with his grandma when Russia launched the missile. Mom ran to them.

Valeriia says Tymofii loved space and rockets.

Day 72 of nonstop national protests, in Georgia people also have jobs but they make the time to defend democracy and challenge the oligarchy.

They chant: "We don't want oligarchy, we demand democracy!"

Good morning and Happy Wednesday to everyone who agrees that trump's bizarre fixation on taking Greenland, the Panama Canal, and Canada by force is all a distraction because he can't deliver his promise to lower prices.
