Hawaii enacted a law that could neuter Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live.

I know Rahm Emanuel. I worked with him for years in the Clinton administration, and then when he was Obama’s chief of staff. Rahm Emanuel represents everything that’s been wrong about the Democratic Party for the last 30+ years. Be warned. robertreich.substack.com/p/the-rahm…

“Gillingham is proposing the committee also feature three ‘outside experts’ that would be appointed by the mayor,” sure sounds like “I want use taxpayer money that I take from hard-working Winnipeggers and give it to my buddies and continue to not address their priorities.”

The fact that stuff like this happening doesn't have mass strikes and city shutdowns happening gives me very little hope that the folks responsible for this will ever actually be held accountable. The time for that isn't when a new administration comes in, it's right fucking now. Make them listen.

The more people obtain music directly from artists, the more those artists will be able to survive to make more music. Similar to buying food directly from farms via a CSA or farmers market, the less our lives are mediated by billionaires, the better.

Sorry for a Substack, but this is a good analysis of Massachusetts deportation data. It aligns with what I've suspected: We are seeing a steady increase in ICE activity. I think the lack of a big "surge" has contributed to media normalization of ICE. justice4allthu.substack.com/p/data-on-th...
A chart showing ICE arrests in Massachusetts since January 2025. There are 3 large spikes and then since April 2026 a steady increase.

ICE deported a former child refugee to Vietnam last October for stealing from her employer — 25 years ago. Melissa Tran begged ICE to let her stay one more week so she could be by her young daughter’s bedside while she got surgery. They didn’t let her.

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.

A very serious Rural Politico once told me "Dems have to go to farmer meetings! We gotta be where the people are!" I was in fact in a farmer meeting at that very moment! So I live-texted him the meeting. They were complaining that they want indentured workers that they don't have to pay or feed.

A letter from the mother of Alex Pretti, six months after he was murdered by ICE.
suzpretti
18 hours ago

Today marks the six-month anniversary of Alex's murder. No one has been held accountable, no apologies, not a single phone call from any governmental official, hospital personnel, or the mpls police dept. Six-months of pain, a roller-coaster of trauma over and over. Every time another a death, another mention, a picture, a tribute, a sorrow so deep. I wonder how to move forward. Will I ever get over this loss and this pain?
Will I ever be able to enjoy life again? How does one live knowing that I have no power to change what has happened?

And yet the outreach not only from Minnesota, but from around the world has been nothing less than spectacular. Every card, every gift, every heartfelt letter has been read, touched, held, and cherished by us all. The kindness you've all shown us is beyond words. Please never forget Alex and what he believed in ~ equality and peace for all. I will remember the things that made you, you. It will never take your memory. As long as I'm here, you will never be forgotten.

For all you asking what you can do. Continue this fight. Never give up your right to speak out, protect your neighbor, your community and don't forget to spend time with those you love...
