Proud to announce that I now sit on the Board of the Ulster Immigrant Defense Network, a force of dedicated volunteers and staff who work together to welcome their immigrant neighbors in the Hudson Valley. UIDN is a prime example of my deep belief that *we keep us safe*.

This shows that, for all his alleged understanding of the working class, Platner either didn’t clock, or didn’t care, that a woman’s ability to control her reproductive choices is, among other things, absolutely a worker issue bc of all the terrible ways employers treat pregnant ppl and new mothers

Folks, no one has a RIGHT to higher office. OK? You aren't "canceling" anyone when you decide NOT TO SUPPORT THEIR QUEST FOR MORE POWER. Please let's be SERIOUS. This is not what is meant by "no one is disposable." I'm begging people to focus and use your brains. That man can still make a LIVING.

One thing I would love is if, when a straight white guy “sees the light” and joins the left, he would volunteer for a community group and like knock doors for someone who’d been on the left for ages instead of immediately wanting to be the candidate. It’d be like a litmus test for if they’re serious

6 years ago today Fox News helpfully distilled some of the demands of the Movement for Black Lives... Curious that they could figure out the demands but that white dude bros on the so called Left say that it's unclear... LOL
A Fox News broadcast displays a list titled "THE MOVEMENT FOR BLACK LIVES DEMANDS" with ten demands, including reparations, no bail, free education, free health care, no death penalty, defund the police, and redistribute wealth.

Something I’ve glimpsed during the NBA finals and the World Cup are how much we need—and how much cities thrive on—experiences of shared joy. The understanding of how important this is (which might simply be the state of not being a sociopath) should be a big priority in 2028.

There are people still living who fought — and watched their compatriots be murdered — for the passage of this act and to attempt to democratize America. To see it completed felled in the span of their OWN lifetime is just absolutely devastating.

The fact that Trump is going to oral arguments to pressure the justices to acquiesce to his attempted nullification of a constitutional amendment and create a stateless class for the first time since the civil war, illustrates what is really at the core of the Trump project and it isn’t tariffs.

Almost every reason people have for defunding or abolishing ICE is also a reason to defund or abolish the police, yet many people who are rightly calling for action against ICE would never come close to doing to the same for police. But this fight goes beyond just ICE. ICE represents a larger issue.

A lot of the "training" police receive is about getting away with harming/killing. They use Graham v. Connor and the idea of "reasonableness". They're trained to claim to feel unsafe, threatened, and/or that they saw or believed there was a weapon. Yet Dems think "training" is the solution for ICE.

Once again: Focusing on their lack of training is a mistake. With "better training," their violence would simply cost more, and they would still kill whoever they wanted, but make it look more professional — to make people more comfortable, the way many of you are at ease with local police violence.

losing my mind at the "she should have followed directions" people really? really? you're cool with "if you don't follow directions, they get to kill you"? that seems like a good state of affairs to you? that seems like how law enforcement ought to work: instant obeisance or death?

Trying to quit Spotify (because #fuckICE) and I've successfully transferred all my music to Qobuz, but I'm trying to find a similar way to tell a new app/platform (I'm not picky about which one) which podcasts I've already listened to on Spotify. Is this a thing?

Saw someone post about how it's really fucked up that we all have to speculate about whether or not the FBI manufactured evidence to back their version of events. The thing is, you should always suspect that about law enforcement—these guys are just more clown-ish and obvious about it.

Tomorrow marks the first anniversary of anti-finance bill protests and the police killings of protesters in #Kenya. These are the names of those who were killed - all killed by the police. Yet senior government officials have spent the whole day warning protesters to “maintain peace”.

I'm imagining ICE doing to NYC what it's doing to LA — and the people of NYC responding the way people are in LA — and it all happening under Mayor Cuomo. He'll side with ICE, DHS and, of course, the NYPD. This man, who hates the city and doesn't live here, can not become mayor. Don't rank him.

I'm obviously not saying that we should blindly trust experts in every single scenario. But given that any member of the public can only know so much, "what is the academic consensus on this?" is a far better way to reach sensible conclusions than "what are uncredentialed 'mavericks' saying online?"

Protest changes the permission structure. It says fascists will not be allowed to proceed unencumbered. And if you didn't think there was anything to be done, a protest shows you many think otherwise.

A community of people denying a platform for ideas that they feel are harmful is not a violation of anyone’s right to free speech. The government revoking your citizenship and locking you up over ideas you’ve expressed is a violation of your right to free speech. Hope this helps.

If you asked a centrist to design a campaign, it would be the one Kamala Harris ran. Didn’t touch identity, excluded trans people, pro military, anti immigrant, pro business. And yet these people cannot stop writing op-eds about Democrats being too far left.

Some of what Trump is attempting to do is unlawful, but some of his shadier maneuvers will likely be supported by the courts. SCOTUS is on his side. I don't say this to discourage people, but as a reminder that the law cannot be our bottom line. Our obligation is to each other, not the law.

Not sure who needs to hear this but apparently it’s a lot of people: It’s fine to demand that the people you elected into positions of power to represent your interests “do something” without having granular knowledge of the options at their disposal. It’s their job to know their options, not ours.
