There is a suspected outbreak of the plague in Russia. Yes, you read that right. And we cannot trust RFK Jr. and the Trump administration to be prepared to deal with this. We need a Democratic public health doctor in the US Senate.

Of course. The Supreme Court kicked off its new term today by hearing oil companies’ attempt to throw out a lawsuit seeking to make them pay for climate damage they caused. The outcome could determine whether similar lawsuits brought by cities and counties across the country can move forward.

Federal immigration goons use their vehicles to confront a crowd of demonstrators protesting ICE in Tacoma, in what eyewitnesses say was an attempt by the suspected Feds to intimidate them. You can see the crowd stand their ground, and the goons drive off.

How is it not news when the president nods off in public meetings and press conferences dozens of times? If you follow independent media, you see it and know about it. But why hasn’t CBS, NBC or ABC showed a montage of it on their evening news? They simply refuse to ever show it.

Community members gathered at the Federal Immigration Court location to raise awareness and support of those that have been wrongfully detained by ICE.  The community also raised voices in opposition to unwarranted military actions as well as other unjust and violent acts by ICE and other federal government agencies.  This event was organized by Indivisible Resisters Contra Costa, a grassroots, nonpartisan group advocating for policies to support immigration reform, campaign finance reform, universal healthcare, racial justice, and to protect our environment.
