We're going to need to keep taking to the streets. We're going to need a General Strike and maybe many. We need to treat this like the red alarm moment in our history that it is.

In August, Nassau County lawmakers passed a bill banning the public from wearing masks. Protesters showed up today masked anyway. We asked them why.
Police shot stun grenades and rubber bullets, then turned to tear gas, in Los Angeles on Saturday. The gathering there was separate from the local “No Kings” event.
Sen. Amy Klobuchar dined with Melissa Hortman, a Minnesota lawmaker and decades-long friend, just hours before she and her husband were shot and killed in what authorities are saying was a politically motivated killing.
“I wish everyone had known her like we knew her,” Klobuchar told POLITICO.

What do New York Republicans need to do to fully repeal the SALT cap?
Nothing.
It's already set to expire in January 2026, saving New York families billions in taxes.
Remember, if the cap remains in any form, it's only because New York Republicans will have voted to keep it.

We cannot allow President Trump to use the U.S. military to police our communities.
Is there no way that RFK, Jr, who doesn’t believe in germ theory and wants to run double blind studies of vaccines on kids (unethical), can be sued for practicing medicine without a license. Or is he covered by the (ironically named) immunity ruling by the toffs on the Supreme Court too?
