Hey this is not a moment to stay silent.

Oct 18th - No Kings Day - is our chance to show we won't accept the militarization of our citizens, the brazen corruption of the Trump family, and the destruction of our health care.

A year of reporting by INVW has uncovered the unjust reality for the roughly 1,300 women currently in Idaho prisons: Once behind bars, they’re kept there by mostly male guards who can harass, grope, and sexually assault them with confidence that it will be kept quiet.

In Idaho women’s prisons, guards get away with sexual abuse and victims are blamed – RANGE Media

A yearlong investigation finds rampant sexual abuse by guards, systemic cover-ups, and punishment for victims

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

Today is Indigenous Peoples Day – a time to honor the 11 sovereign Tribal Nations and robust urban Native communities that continue to enrich our state’s cultural landscape, economy, and heritage.

It was a beautiful morning to celebrate on the shore of Bde Maka Ska.

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

I keep seeing this get posted. The AZ electors were charged a year and a half ago. The AZ Superior Court ENDED the case five months ago. The AZ AG will have to appeal to the AZ Supreme Court or go back and start again with a grand jury. Please stop sharing this.

“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.
