“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.
I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.
Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

It's incredible that neither the president nor VP was here. The politicization of all facets of American life is coming from the White House. No other American president would have failed to pay their respects. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

McGovern: "This is not a governing philosophy. It is a scam. I wasn't sent here to vote for trash. I can't understand why you'd choose a career of public service to do this -- to rip away the healthcare & food assistance of working & middle class Americans. Is that really what you came here to do?"

If you live in Massachusetts, especially Plymouth, you may have an election tomorrow. And these elections are pretty important. Even though they’re only at the town level, there are a bunch of really awful people running.

No matter how many times we say Fox News isn’t real news, it doesn’t matter—because their viewers believe it is.
Watch: It shows exactly how they’re screwing all of us—you & me—because we’re stuck dealing with people who fall for disinformation. And their own viewers, because they believe the lies.

Allow me to address the elephant in the room: The decades-long outsourcing of domestic manufacturing to China was not an insidious Chinese conspiracy for dominance but the greedy strategy of the American ruling class to explode its profit margins by exploiting global inequality.

In space, Venus flanks Earth on the left, with a hellfire greenhouse effect. Mars on the right, which long ago had running water. Today, it's bone dry. Something bad happened on each planet.
Seems like the wrong time to limit the Nation’s capacity to conduct climate research.

I realized no one else is doing the work of speaking to mainly rural folks in the heartland. Call me the Temu AOC, but I think helping regular folks fight the oligarchy is worthwhile.
