SPOG hates the unhoused and abuses people in crisis. Cops hate handling calls that require social workers, but their union refuses to make way for alternative responses. This isn't a working conditions issue. Force the issue and expand CARE.

Seattle's RV ban makes the housing crisis worse by providing no useful alternative. Safe lots that do not require RV users to disable or abandon their vehicles are desperately needed in Seattle, not more citations and sweeps.
@council.seattle.gov Fuck additional Seattle Police spending and pervasive surveillance! Residents want real investments in services that reduce incivility, improve housing, and address addiction.

Seattle's business comunity needs to grow up or get out. Their latest message about the city's budget -- 'give us more and tax us less' -- amounts to saying "kill or relocate all the poor people so we can have the city to ourselves."

The situation in Haiti is terrifying. On Sunday, 150 gunmen swept down on a town to kill, rape, loot, and burn. 22 people were executed in a churchyard. 52 were taken hostage. Stephen Miller mockingly says Haiti is safe and ICE just sent its second deportation flight this month; with kids on board.
Last month, U.S. officials warned Haitian authorities to expect an increase in deportations following the Supreme Court’s 6-3 decision to allow President Donald Trump to end Haiti’s Temporary Protected Status designation even while litigation challenging the termination continues in the courts.

Given that the culture war no longer serves to distract voters reliably from labor rights, the new conservative strategy is to re-define labor rights as culture war. trib.al/9DJ3FU6

Imagine being a kid and learning both your parents were arrested by ICE. You’ll have to pay rent and survive on your own. I shadowed four siblings—US citizens near Mar-a-Lago—as they try to do that. I'll be thinking about their story for a long time 1/x www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
School vouchers have always been meant to undermine if not destroy the public education system with two goals: (1) limit who can get an education and (2) guarantee kids are only taught what those controlling the vouchers want them to learn, which is how to be compliant.
Wisconsin Rep. Gwen Moore is calling for the federal school voucher program created under President Donald Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” to be eliminated. via @wisconsinexaminer.com

This is pure insanity—read the thread below, about a planned data center for Piketon, OH. These people are out of control.
Piketon will - Kill between 9 and 90 people - Have between $145m and $1.3bn in health costs - Cause between 7k and 45k asthma attacks - Will use the equivalent of 4.5m to 6m households of power docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Man Accused of Bribery Offers Bribe to Get Out of Bribery Charges
NEW: Under Biden, the DOJ indicted Indian billionaire Gautam Adani for “corruption & fraud at the expense of US investors.” Adani hired Trump’s lawyer Bob Giuffra. He told Trump’s DOJ that if they dropped the charges, Adani would invest $10b in the US. DOJ is now planning to drop the charges.

In 2025, ~48 datacenter projects worth $156bn were blocked or stalled by local opposition. 2026 is shaping up to be an even bigger year for AI resistance. This is a good piece on how organizing to block datacenters is a way for regular people to ensure their objections & preferences are heard.

Former teacher Theo Henderson became unhoused when he was evicted after losing his job and falling into medical debt due to spiraling costs related to his diabetes. When he began documenting his experiences in 2019, 3 people were dying on the streets of LA every day. Now, that number has doubled.

Henderson shares his analysis of how anti-camping ordinances like the one in Los Angeles function as “the new Jim Crow,” how Democrats and Republicans are united in their war on the poor, and how AI-powered medical diagnostics for unhoused populations echo the Tuskegee experiments.

Children aren't parents' property. This immoral SCOTUS decision will lead to the deaths of trans kids.
The Supreme Court cleared the way for California schools to tell parents if their children identify as transgender without getting the student's approval, granting an emergency appeal from a conservative legal group.

Rich alludes here to the wisdom of the judges at the Nuremburg trial: “To initiate a war of aggression, therefore, is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole."
The US will never get tired of committing aggressive war, the supreme war crime

My congressman "opposes" these strikes. He's also the senior Democrat on Armed Services who takes money from Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, and Raytheon. He votes for every bloated defense budget that builds the bombs now falling on Tehran.

Indeed. And do you know what kind of an as absolute bunch of bespittled, shit-flinging troglodytes you have to be to get the Canadian people mad at you? Do you know how badly you have to behave in public, day after self-degrading day to lose their friendship?
