Six years ago today I launched Democracy Docket to be unapologetically pro-democracy. Today, it has a staff of 22 and more than 400,000 subscribers and 60,000 paying members.

Its commitment remains: Never back down or obey and always stand tall. Sign-up and support it today. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

What we do matters! Any act of resistance can change how others perceive their own power - if enough of us do this we collectively empower culture/society to change youtube.com/watch?v=66we...

Everyone needs to reacquaint themselves with their local library & local book shop and subscribe to independent journalist & news outlets. Time to stay off oligarch owned platforms

As the president & other elected officials continue to ignore the atrocities named in the Epstein files, we join the survivors' demand for justice. We will not stay silent. We will not look away. We are with the survivors, & we demand accountability.

Worse -they believe/internalized the patriarchal& monotheistic religious dogma that women are put on earth for their sexual gratification/free labor/entertainment & don’t consider us equal humans same w/POC
It’s a hierarchical vision of all of humanity-women & women of color are at the bottom of it

At least 20 communities with large warehouses are stealth targets for massive ICE detention centers. 'There was absolutely no warning' | Fortune In many cases, mayors, county commissioners, governors and members of Congress learned about ICE’s ambitions only after the agency bought or leased space for detainees.

More and more of these warehouse concentration camps are being stealthily planned without the communities themselves having much of a warning. We need to make sure we’re shutting these down where we can

No! Journalism is better when it is backed by a platform that has no venture capitalists looking to make quick money. That is why Democracy Docket is built on its own tech stack with no corporate backers or private investors. It only relies on you. Sign up now. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

β€˜No one deserves this’: Beaverton father dies after deportation to Mexico A Beaverton family is grieving after the father, who was detained and deported by ICE, has now died.

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported.

He finally died.

I am so angry.

A tariff β€œrefund” mostly goes to whoever wrote the tariff check: the importer of record. That’s not the same person who paid more at the register. So refunds -- if they're offered -- might sound like consumer relief, but in reality, they're corporate windfalls.

In addition to the fascism/corruption, one of the under-reported reasons Epstein accountability is real in the UK, Norway, etc is b/c those countries, like most of Western Europe, care enough about gender equality to have Minister level cabinet positions dedicated to women/gender equality.
