US Senators are currently debating the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" to advance President Trump’s agenda. This bill is not a solution to economic inequality or for managing immigration procedures – it is a blueprint for cruelty. ✍️ Urge Congress to stop the bill NOW: www.hrw.org/NotOnOurWatch

Thank you to the @aaldef.bsky.social for putting this valuable resource together, particularly for local businesses that do not know what to do when ICE comes knocking. #ICEoutofLA #FueraICE #Gestaponotwelcomehere #LosAngeles #immigration

These aren't "arrests." These are state-sponsored abductions. #fueraice #iceoutofLA #desaparacidos

President Trump's deployment of federalized National Guard troops is unnecessary, inflammatory, and an abuse of power. The Trump administration is putting people in LA in danger and undermines the democratic principle that the military should not police civilians. www.reuters.com/world/us/whi...

In my head all day.

Photo of text states: Buffalo in herds, surround the most vulnerable to keep them safe from threat. The big bulls on the outside, horns pointed outward from the center. The matriarch females form another circle behind them. The youngest, the calves are in the center, protected on all sides.

This is what was on my mind all day. Protecting the most vulnerable. Placing them at center. Circle up.

Just thought I’d share that. 🦬

"Capitalism is not really a free market system. It's certainly not a democratic free market system .... it is defined by massive monopolistic corporations that dominate the world market." Grace Blakeley discusses the central thesis of her new book Vulture Capitalism. #LSEEvents #GraceBlakeley

Absolutely devastating to see an area I love and hike often is up in flames. This is all the more exacerbated by the powerful Santa Ana winds we're experiencing. Hoping communities can save what they can and safely evacuate 🙏🏼

And let's not forget that Chenjerai was hired to teach *journalism* at NYU, because he is an award-winning broadcaster. For doing the thing he was hired to teach, he is now being being declared "PNG" at NYU. Wild stuff.

Exploitation, neglect, deprivation, death. These are not accidents of fate but the calculated outcomes of a system that prioritizes profit over human life. Friedrich Engels called it “social murder,” a term that cuts to the heart of capitalism’s hidden violence.

As Native American Heritage Month comes to a close, the process of picking up the pieces of our past continues. Here's to the matriarchs who came before me, my Great Aunties, Lorenza and Louisa Ortiz; for my Great Grandmother whose true name and true language I'm still trying to uncover.
