Just a random reminder that over 50 members of Congress collectively own millions of dollars in defense contractor stocks.

They stand to personally profit from wars that enrich these contractors.

Make no mistake, this is legalized corruption.

Watch how they vote this week.

Stand With Minnesota Stand With Minnesota is a hub for supporting, learning, and taking action to support Minnesotans impacted by ICE and federal enforcement.

No one-and particularly not Teresa-made any attempt to seek help. Even had she wanted to, whom would she call? If Argentines had learned anything in the two and a half years since the military had seized power, it was that little good came from paying attention, and even less came from attracting it. The armed men who now roved the city as agents of the dictatorship were at once secretive-driving cars without license plates and obscuring their faces with women's stock-ings-and brazen, abducting people off the street in broad daylight. It was almost as if they were daring bystanders: acknowledge you've noticed us, see what happens.
No. Better to forget what she'd witnessed. Teresa waited for her husband to pick her up, locked up the store, and left. Her employers had always treated her well, but a thought lingered β€” one that many others in Argentina had come to believe over the years: "Si se los llevan asΓ­, es por algo." If they were taken, there must be a reason.

Acknowledge you've noticed us, see what happens.”

Everyone should support J.P. Cooney.

ICE is not welcome here! Deploying ICE agents on European soil - under the pretext of escorting JD Vance and Marco Rubio at the Milano–Cortina Winter Olympics – is simply unacceptable. We will not tolerate Trump’s repression apparatus to operate in Italy or elsewhere in the EU.

Donald Trump’s push for new oil and gas drilling off the West Coast is an unlawful betrayal of the American people.

Trump is caving to Big Oil and opening the door to even more climate-exacerbated disasters.

Forcing 300,000 workers out of their jobs created chaos for struggling families and jeopardized the services we rely on. And there's no evidence whatsoever that all these workers are now cashing in.

The DOGE/Project 2025 cuts have been devastating for America's workers.

Imagine, if you will, that NASA updated its website to suggest gravity might not exist, prompting CalTech and CERN to release statements saying, "With great sadness, we can no longer recommend listening to NASA."

This is what's happening in epidemiology.

Excerpt from a BBC article: ""We usually work, 10, 11 or 12 hours a day," says a 49-year-old woman from Jiangxi unwilling to give her name. "On Sundays we work around three hours less."

She is in an alleyway, where a dozen people are huddled around a row of bulletin boards.

They are reading the job ads on the board, while examining the stitching on a pair of chinos draped over it.

This is Shein's supply chain. The factories are contracted to make clothes on order - some small, some big. If the chinos are a hit, orders will ramp up and so must production. Factories then hire temporary workers to meet the demand their permanent staff cannot fulfil.

The migrant worker from Jiangxi is looking for a short-term contract - and the chinos are an option.

"We earn so little. The cost of living is now so high," she says, adding that she hopes to make enough to send back to her two children who are living with their grandparents.

"We get paid per piece," she explains. "It depends how difficult the item is. Something simple like a t-shirt is one-two yuan [less than a dollar] per piece and I can make around a dozen in an hour.""

The people who make Shein's clothes labor for ten to twelve hours per day (in violation of China's labor laws), some up to seven days a week, and earn as little as 15 to 30 cents per t-shirt.

Wikipedia Volunteers Avert Tragedy by Taking Down Gunman at Conference

By Andy Newman

At Civic Hall in Union Square, a man with a gun walked onto the stage at a Wikipedia conference.

Richard Knipel, CUNY's Wikimedian-in-Residence, jumped the gunman and, with others' help, saved the day. Gift link

CALIFORNIANS!!!!

You’re gonna start getting your ballots. Vote YES for prop/ state measure 50, (it will be titled differently in different counties.)

Vote as soon as you get your ballot so that phone calls and texts can be directed to people who need more convincing.
