A year after Barnes & Noble opens in Wicker Park, nearby indie bookstore forced to close
Volumes Bookcafe, which has been open for a decade, immediately saw a “significant” drop in sales after Barnes & Noble moved into the century-old Noel State Bank building in October 2024.

After World War II, 3 German U-boat crewmen were sentenced to death for machine-gunning Allied sailors who were clinging to life rafts after their boat was sunk.
It's long been known in the military that this is a war crime. Pete Hegseth must be fired and prosecuted.

Every year since 1988, the United States has recognized World AIDS Day — until now.

Why not? Maybe because the Trump administration doesn’t want to acknowledge that its foreign aid cuts led to nearly 150,000 deaths from AIDS, according to Boston University researchers.

Shameful.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

This is why military service members should refuse to follow illegal orders. Because when the shit hits the fan, Trunp and Hegseth will deny everything and blame you. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
Reporter: Does the administration deny that that second strike happened or did it happen and the administration denies that Hegseth gave the order 

Leavitt: The latter is true

Tomorrow is our last chance to stomp the regime at the ballot box in 2025. We can flip a Tennessee district that Trump won by double digits, but only if we turn enough voters out — please make some calls to help us send @aftynbehn.bsky.social to Congress: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

~20% of big retailers’ sales happen between Black Friday and Cyber Monday. That’s why we’re hitting pause on purchases from Home Depot, Target, and Amazon — make your dollars count by refusing to support corporations complicit in Trump’s authoritarian power grab: weaintbuyingit.com?utm_source=b...

If your doctor decided you needed an MRI (indicating concern about something serious) and you claim that you didn't ask why or what part of your body he wanted to look at, you are:

1. Really stupid; or

2. Dangerously detached from reality; or

4. Lying; or

4. All three. 🎯

Energy transitions can happen faster than we think:

In 2000 almost 90% of Denmark's electricity was from fossil fuels.

In 2024 less than 10% of Danish electricity was from fossil fuels.

Republicans are FREAKING OUT about how close this race is. We can elect @aftynbehn.bsky.social and send a massive message to MAGA - help GOTV here:
It’s clear that Republicans are very worried about the upcoming special election in a Tennessee district that Trump won by double digits.

Scoop: Trump and Johnson to hold tele-rally for GOP in tight Tennessee House race
Should Republicans lose — or win narrowly — it would further expectations that the party is heading toward a perilous midterm.

Withholding support from corporations enabling the Trump regime is a powerful way to fight authoritarianism. Supporting the organizations who do fight back hard and organize others to fight is just as important. If you can, pitch in to power your friendly pro-democracy organizers at Indivisible.
