Basically, states have the power to decide what corporations can and can’t do in their state. The Montana Plan, meant to counter Citizens United and supported by 74% of Montana voters, would redefine Montana’s corporate charter to disallow corporations from spending in elections. Great idea.

This is unconscionable. If the Democrats ever retain full governmental power, they need to pass legislation to make abortion legal.
The rate of sepsis in Houston surged 63% after Texas banned abortion.

In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where hospital leaders empowered doctors to intervene before patients’ conditions worsened, it rose 29%.

Why Hospital Policies Matter in States That Ban Abortion
Our first-of-its-kind data analysis found that a seismic split emerged in how medical institutions in Texas' two largest metro areas, Houston and Dallas, treated miscarrying patients — and in their ou...

It sure seems that way. Just look at who the President is.
Epstein was an American-made monster.

An underqualified striver who got rich selling young girls and tax evasion to powerful men.

He got richer by blackmailing them in the service of even more powerful men.

Epstein’s not an aberration. He’s the result of a culture that celebrates despicable men.👇

South Korea plans to close all their coal-fired power plants by 2040. Meanwhile, in America, Donald Trump plans to open 1.3million acres of public land to coal mining while providing $625million for coal-fired power plants. Welcome to the 20th (yes, 20th) century. 🤨😠😡🤬

Mask up to protect vulnerable people. It’s not all about you. 😷
I don’t consider anyone a valid advocate who physically is able to mask up & refuses to do it. Anyone who refuses to mask up is NOT acceptable to be a long covid & disability rights advocate. Alice Wong has died & was physically unable to mask up & begged ppl repeatedly to 😷- airborne transmission

The beauty industry is already bad enough when it comes to their advertising claims. Using AI will only increase their product claims, using ‘models’ that don’t exist IRL, to boost sales.
I don’t want to seem out of touch but I don’t actually understand the economy anymore.

Noem complaining about how diificult it is for her ICE gestapo to go into communities and have to listen to whistles alerting people to ICE’s presence. If we had a sensible immigration policy instead of racist bullies pulling random people off the streets, there would be no need for whistles.
Kristi Noem is mad that protesters are blowing whistles at ICE agents.

to support The Collective Good Immigrant Pantry, which delivers fresh food and essentials to hundreds of immigrant families.

Suggested Donation: $10

I will never understand why at least some of these CBP agents don’t refuse to follow what they must know are illegal orders. The same goes for ICE and the military under Hegseth.
If CBP, Customs and Border Protection, is only supposed to operate within 100 miles of the U.S. border, what are they doing leading operations in Charlotte, North Carolina?

These don’t look like dangerous gang members to me.
They’re not going after criminals. “Criminals don’t get up and go to work and pay their bills.”

These are not criminals; they’re hard-working people.

I think Americans are realizing that democracy is a participation sport, and the the government is ours if we want it to be. I feel like we got complacent and hoped some other third party would do the work for us. Seems like we have to learn that lesson every generation.

We must keep up the pressure on these ICE henchmen and their boss Kristi Noem. According to DHS, they have already deported around 500,000 people, including many people proven to be eligible to remain or with pending court dates, and even some US citizens (which DHS denies). This must not go on. 😡🤬
People are rising up and teaching each other how to resist and fight back, and it’s working.

And yeah, we’re seeing a whole lot of stupid ICE agents stumbling around like they own the place.

You cannot occupy a city and expect silence. The people who live there always answer back.
