Decades of anti-immigrant escalation are solidifying into an industrialized concentration camp system in the U.S. And we are running out of time to stop it, in part because it's such good business. Proud to share one of the most important things I’ve ever worked on.

Iranian missile and drone attacks inflicted damage on U.S. intelligence posts and surveillance hardware “more extensive than any destruction America’s spy agencies have endured” and “will cost billions of dollars to repair,” according to four people with knowledge of the matter.
Imagine being talented and beautiful and rich and famous and still the most noteworthy thing about you is how good a person you are.
The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️
Automatic license plate readers (ALPRs) have been used to track protesters, immigrants, op-ed writers critical of police, and even gun show attendees. Driving a car should not open us up to pervasive government surveillance.

There is no comparison for how fast Trump has destructed government and wrecked the nation. But he’s also more unpopular than he ever has been — and that should encourage us to continue resisting, speaking out, and voting.
The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left." It’s between democracy and oligarchy. The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power. Remember this.
Whoa! A whole secret bunker was built under the White House during the Obama administration - separate from the old bunker under the East Wing. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Oh good, we’ll get to see how weak this President is on the world stage after burning ALL our allies and starting a war set to burn down the world economy. This’ll go well.
Shipwreck@shipwreck75.bsky.social · 4d agoTreasury Secretary Scott Bessent, in a op-ed, announces the U.S. is launching “the single greatest financial offensive ever marshalled against an adversary” — an “economic D-Day” to fully isolate Iran.
👀 As Trump has repeatedly shown, he hasn’t the slightest clue how to negotiate — especially when the other side has leverage. Graham was righter than he realized: "If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed ... and we will deserve it"

🚨 NATIONAL FORESTS They just moved to open 45 MILLION ACRES to logging and roads. 625,000 people already told them no. They did it anyway. Congress holds the budget. Congress can stop this. 👉 SEND A LETTER RIGHT NOW: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

I think this is an accurate assessment - at least somewhere around this number. The problem isn’t rebuilding the bases, it’s force protection. Iran knows what works, now they’re reconstituting their capabilities during the lull in fighting. Emboldening them was a grave mistake
Jeffries has got to go. And take Schumer with him.
