As the government raids “antifa groups” in Minneapolis with the SAME charges levied against myself and the rest of the Broadview Six, we need to be asking how they got this indictment. And as charges (hopefully) get dropped, we must remember the process is the punishment.

'Almost 40% of people come to the classes through the workplace, where uptake is particularly strong in the NHS and the police. There has also been a huge increase in younger people learning Welsh, with the number of learners aged 16 to 24 up 56% in 2024-25 compared with the previous year.'

The number of people on Dysgu Cymraeg courses has risen by 61% since 2017, as people in Wales rediscover the ‘poetry’ of the language

THEY ARE BUYING UP WAREHOUSES TO HOLD HUMAN BEINGS IN DETENTION INDEFINITELY. I feel crazy at how everyone is acting like this is normal. These are concentration camps being built right before our eyes. These buildings are not meant to house human beings. People will be caged like cattle and die.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski: “After speaking with Chair Powell this morning, it’s clear the administration’s investigation is nothing more than an attempt at coercion.“

New Yorkers from across the state are joining today’s action for #NY4All. We’re here to demand that our leaders pass the New York for All Act to ensure our state resources are never used to disappear our neighbors.  See how else this bill can defend immigrant communities. ⬇️

After we all knew or SHOULD HAVE KNOWN he’s levying war against the US & has engaged in acts of Treason with that full intent since at least Jan 6, 2021; THUS rendering him incapable of holding ANY office under the United States. Anyone giving him aid and comfort is ALSO A TRAITOR.

Don't worry, it'll get much, *much* worse We're only in the top of the second inning of the collapse of the United States Just remember that some things are unforgivable, and that includes voting for Donald Trump after all knew he was a felon, rapist, con man, pathological liar and insurrectionist

The Trump Administration's forcible removal of Senator Padilla today is un-American and unacceptable. Our elected officials have a right — and a duty — to conduct oversight of President Trump's abuses of power. As much as the administration wants to silence dissent, we the people won't back down.

It's hard to overstate how destructive the reflexive "this is a distraction!" stuff that politicians and commentators and people are always peddling. Everything is happening all at once. That's how authoritarianism works. If you can't navigate and synthesize this, you're not meeting the moment.

It maybe be pitiful but that doesn’t make it any less dangerous. Ask people like myself who’ve personally seen this happen elsewhere. It goes downhill fast. It is truly important to continue to protest and to vote in the right candidates in every single local election. And to unite in resistance.

Cannot stress enough that this is a pitiful action by a weak, scared, pathetic group of insecure, wannabe authoritarians, and they should be mocked until the end of time for wanting to bring in the military over some people protesting them at a Home Depot.

The House snuck a provision into President Trump's signature bill that could give the administration free rein to ignore certain court orders. The Senate must reject this dangerous measure that puts all of our rights in jeopardy.

The blowup between Elon and Trump hasn’t ended DOGE, it’s still expanding. Russ Vought now plans to institutionalize DOGE across the federal government, and Elon’s staffers are embedded deep within key agencies.

BREAKING: A federal judge blocked President Trump's executive order prohibiting transgender people incarcerated in federal custody from receiving gender-affirming medical care.

This is fundamentally a public confession! Trump does not believe he must uphold the US Constitution! The oath of office is meaningless to trump. The GOP still shows no sign that they care! Trump should be removed, but the GOP continues to protect him. The GOP --IS-- ROOT CAUSE! #USDemocracy

WELKER: Your secretary of state says everyone who's here, citizens and non-citizens, deserve due process. Do you agree? TRUMP: I don't know. I'm not a lawyer. I don't know. WELKER: Don't you need to uphold the Constitution? TRUMP: I don't know
