The official voice of the US government is cruel, gross, and weird. What is that doing to us?

Today, Mayor-elect @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social will visit the White House as he prepares to take office with a simple goal: making sure working people can afford to live where they work.

You may be shocked to find out his plan doesn’t include giant tax cuts for corporations & billionaires.

BREAKING: The U.S. Coast Guard just announced they won’t classify swastikas and nooses as hate symbols anymore they’re calling them ‘potentially divisive.’ Potentially divisive? Listen, a noose isn’t a conversation starter. A swastika isn’t a debate topic. They are dangerous hate symbols. Full stop

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

Grateful for the last word in @hcrichardson.bsky.social's newsletter about #NoKings. As a social movement scholar, the protests were important for their size and for how many sites participated but also because they are part of a trajectory of participation of millions. A 🧵:

Rallies like this bring together multigenerational groups and the playfulness can help create enthusasim for big tent politics against the monoculture of fascism.

The Senate Republicans’ tax plan would add nearly $3.3 trillion to the federal deficit over the next decade. It was never about “saving money”.

Republicans are trying to jam a bill through the Senate that:

-Cuts $900B from Medicaid
-Kicks millions off their health care
-Raises grocery costs for 40 million Americans
-Adds $4.2T to the deficit

All to cut taxes for billionaires. Rotten to its core.
