Appears more and more judges are learning the hard way that the DOJ can’t always be taken at its word. A federal judge issued a warning to the Justice Department not to misrepresent the status of the $1.8 billion settlement fund.

What a glorious May Day! Kicking off some music soon for the Coalition of Logan Airport Workers (CLAW) fighting for free speech and the right to organize at the airport

5 out of the 6 Supreme Court Justices who gutted the Voting Rights Act were nominated by a president who came into office having lost the popular vote. 70% of Americans support the John Lewis VRA. The Supreme Court is historically unpopular. It is not a democratically legitimate institution.

Holy smokes! $50 BILLION in just 60 days. That’s what the Iran war is costing — while lawmakers slash health care and squeeze Medicare. Always money for war, & never enough for the basic needs of the American people.

The Supreme Court and GOP are about to make redistricting a complete mess nationwide. It’s going to become pure tit for tat. Some seats flip red, some flip blue, and by the time the dust settles everything just evens out. But the whole country will be gerrymandered in the process.

Our current economy is rigged. It just is. A new report shows that 88 of the largest companies in America, including: Amazon Citigroup Haliburton Kohl's Palantir PayPal PG&E Southwest Airlines Tesla United Airlines Disney paid ZERO corporate income tax last year.

Kind of weird that the president is a rapist, and a court reaffirmed it, and everyone knows it, and we're all just going about our days like normal.

The Supreme Court's decision in Louisiana v. Callais puts voting districts that give voters of color an opportunity to elect candidates of our choice in jeopardy across the country. Although the court has upended decades of progress, we're not giving up or backing down from defending our democracy.

A quote on the photo reads "Fair districts that took decades of litigation — not to mention blood and sweat — to achieve are now at risk. And representation isn’t just symbolic. It is a vote on whether your child’s school gets funded, whether your neighborhood gets flood relief, and whether your community’s health care survives the next budget." The quote is attributed to Sophia Lin Lakin, ACLU Voting Rights Project Director, on the Supreme Court's ruling in Louisiana v. Callais

Republican state lawmaker Matt Sabourin has proposed that New Hampshire schools teach Holocaust denialism. To testify in favor, he brought a Holocaust denier recently convicted of indecent exposure after being found naked with a bottle of baby oil on a playground at 4 a.m.

I am one of them. Used to use it daily for code help at work. Heard that the CEO is a huge trump supporter and quit immediately, deleted my account and data and haven't looked back.

An estimated 2,500,000 people have stopped using chatGPT as the QuitGPT movement has gained traction

IT’S NO KINGS DAY! Show up. Speak out. Share photos of your signs and rallies across the country. Stay safe. Stand strong. March for our democracy.
