the media has made a huge deal about Neutrality and Not Editorializing and it all falls apart when you realize they are too afraid to publish a factual description of the video Trump posted

RFK is undoing human subjects protections so he can conduct placebo trials of vaccines. That means infecting people knowingly. I wonder who will “volunteer” for these trials? If history is any guide, a lot of incarcerated and other powerless people.
Dismantling the Institutional Review Board (IRB), that oversees all human subjects research, is bad. Really bad.
The entire HR department at the CDC is gone. Everyone at the IRB, which makes sure studies are conducted ethically and rigorously, and the ethics office, which oversee conflicts of interest for CDC leaders and advisory committee members, were also let go.

Otterly spooky snack time! 🎃 Asian small-clawed otters, Sebastian and Pintar, enjoyed tasty treats in their creepy-crawly pumpkin at #ZooBoo! 👻

A year before “What’s Going On,” Curtis Mayfield’s 1970 release “Curtis” was an incendiary and insightful look into, indeed what was going on. “Move Up,” “If There’s A Hell Below We’re All Going to Go, “Miss Black America” and this one, among others. A must must must listen.

Really think the biggest win today aside from just numbers is negatively polarizing the regime of 12-year-olds into fully adopting #YESKINGS as their official stance.

The generals said "sir are you sure you want to fly the diarrhea bomber over the AI city with the nonsense billboards" and I said [zesty] we've got to shit the hell out of 'em. And no one has more loose stool than me. And actually that was very smart. Making myself the diarrhea president was smart.

We don’t take volunteers (our work is based on very close relationships) but we’re always down to offer advice on where to plug in or how to start a project supporting your unhoused neighbors.

We even put together a collection of resources on starting a group:

If showing up in community today felt great, imagine how cool it would be to always be working on building new worlds & resisting fascism!

Wherever you are, there’s probably projects to plug into. If there isn’t, you can get together with some friends or even just by yourself & start doing things.

I know it's a fool's errand to expect anything from the media but "President posts video of himself dumping diarrhea on America" is an important thing to call attention to for a dozen reasons
That terrible history is so close. My mother was older than Ruby Bridges. I draw strength from what she lived through, been thinking about this a lot lately, and my ancestors who lived through slavery, "Redemption", Jim Crow
I constantly draw strength from the fact that my parents grew up when it was worse than this. When white people were lynching people in the streets and bombing Black churches and integrated schools. And they still did not live in fear. My parents thrived, loved, and lived. And I can too.

Yep. The doom spiral Trump and co are in is that the only move they know is escalation, which compromises their regime further, which causes them to panic and escalate even more.
Desperate people do desperate things, and a regime staring down the barrel of real accountability is going to do some pretty bad stuff to stay in power once they figure out how much trouble they're in

TODAY — At the No Kings rally in Chicago, organizers recognized the work of independent news outlets including The TRiiBE and Unraveled Press, and nonprofit newsroom Block Club Chicago.

I truly hope Trump knows that people hate him this much across the entire globe. Maybe it will finally do him in
The world joined us and said, “No Kings.”

I am 100% in favor of Chumbawumba becoming the soundtrack for the current resistance
The crowd did not disperse, an instead started playing Tubthumping by Chumbawamba — I get knocked down, but I get up again.

Across all the major outlets — NYT, WSJ, WaPo, LAT, CNN, ABC, CBS, Fox News, NBC, CNBC, NPR, Bloomberg — the only outlet without a No Kings story on its home page is CBS News.

For every other outlet, it's near the top. Even Fox News is running with "Nationwide unrest looms as thousands mobilize"

Speaking as an immigrant, I'm glad to see people getting out there and protesting on this massive scale.

It needs to happen way way way more.
