Let your U.S. Senator know you are concerned the CLARITY Act weakens consumer and state oversight and risks traditional banking stability. Dozens of advocacy groups and several senators have argued it fails to stop corruption and creates regulatory loopholes that enable more corruption.

The Senate is expected to vote this week on a bill that would enable Trump’s corruption. Repubs only need a handful of Senate Dems to pass the CLARITY Act (after 78 House Dems voted to pass it last year). Call your Senators: https://loom.ly/rN6D0wc There's a script, you can also use 5calls.org

The culture war is fought on many battlefields; one of them is language. We must continue to use the language of democracy, civic engagement, free speech, freedom of assembly, due process, anti-fascism, pro-democracy, public good, public structures, freedom of expression, etc. Framing is important.

Antifa (short for "anti-fascist") is not an organized political group. It's a decentralized movement without a clear structure, hierarchy or leader, according to a 2020 Congressional Research Service. Thank goodness most of our citizens are anti-fascist.

Pressuring the pillars works: Citizens Bank announced it will end its financial relationship with prison companies connected to ICE after months of public outcry and hundreds of millions in assets divested due to its ties to these companies that enable ICE cruelty. www.wgbh.org/news/local/2...

Trump fired the entire Election Assistance Commission. Now what? by Jim Saksa (Democracy Docket) / ACTION ITEM: please continue to pressure your representative and senators that federal interference in our elections is not right www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Trump fired the entire Election Assistance Commission. Now what?

“It's a bit of a tantrum by the president,” said Cisco Aguilar, Nevada's secretary of state. "His ego is bruised.”

Never stop letting your elected representatives at the city, state, and federal levels, and faith leaders, and community leaders know how you feel about the federal government violating the Constitution and killing innocent people to promote an anti-American and anti-Christian far-right agenda.

“The vehicle attempted to flee the scene and, fearing for public safety, an officer discharged his weapon.” Fleeing. The vehicle was driving away. That’s murder. A legal resident of the United States is now dead. The threat to public safety is ICE. It must be eliminated.

Homeland Security: On July 13, 2026, at approximately 7:00 AM ET, ICE was conducting targeted surveillance on the last known address of an illegal alien with a final order of removal. An illegal alien departed the residence in a vehicle. ICE law enforcement attempted to conduct a vehicle stop. The vehicle attempted to flee the scene and, fearing for public safety, an officer discharged his weapon.

The driver of the vehicle was struck, and emergency services were immediately contacted. He passed away from his injuries. 
 
The Biddeford Police Department and FBI responded to the scene. DHS OIG has been notified and like all discharge of firearms this will be investigated. This is a developing situation, and we will update the public when more information is available.

4th of July fireworks & barbecues are behind us but the Freedom 250 propaganda continues. Thankfully, artists, critics, curators, etc. across the nation are helping us make sense of this anniversary as the political right attempts to whitewash the historical record: hyperallergic.com/8-art-books-...

Four New York Times journalists have been ordered to testify before a grand jury next week. The crime? Reporting that Trump’s Qatari-gifted AF1 lacks the security of the old AF1. This is the government criminalizing journalism itself, violating freedom of the press. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/11/b...

Instead of managing economic, energy & security crises, the executive branch has focused on bread-and-circus nationalist theatre while engaging in unprecedented corruption, grift & looting.
