Hey friends, I'm doing my best to make it easy for folks to come here and find their communities. I've got two starter packs so far - one with general left-ish activists and leaders, and one with folks working on union issues. Links in chat, and if you'd like to be added to one let me know!

I'll merely note that today, like all days, is a great day to stop posting on Twitter, a platform whose owner force feeds this slop into people's brains with an algorithm designed to boost his views and trample yours.

Screenshot of Elon Musk tweet from shortly after Charlie Kirk was shot. Elon says "The Left is the party of murder" and is quote tweeting a post from Shaun Maguire that reads:

The Left lectured us for the last decade about the dangers of violence from the Right

From the assassination attempts of President Trump

To Brian Thompson, the United Healthcare CEO, being murdered

Now to Charlie Kirk

The danger was actually on the Left

The asymmetrical media response to political violence in America is, in itself, one of the most important contributing factors to how we arrived at this place of escalating political violence.

Headline and lede from Time magazine (did not make the magazine cover) with a generic headshot of Minnesota House speaker Melissa Hortman that reads 

Minnesota Lawmaker Melissa Hortman Killed, FBI Hunt Suspect
Jun 15, 2025 โ€” Democratic state Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, were killed by an individual impersonating a police officer.
--
Hortman was assassinated by a far right extremist along with her husband and dog. The man had a long list of Democrats he planned to kill, and was caught after shooting Minnesota Democrat John Hoffman and his wife Yvette who thankfully survived
Headline from time with a photo of Charlie Kirk at the event where he was murdered, smiling and waving at the crowd. The preview time has shared indicates that this will be the cover story of the next magazine. 

The headline reads

The Killing of Charlie Kirk and the Political Violence Haunting America

There it is folks. The brilliant Dem strategy, according to the genius pundits with the ear of Dem leadership, is to let Trump keep doing everything he's doing but only if we can also help Republicans avoid paying a political price for hurting people long enough to hold the House and Senate in 2026

Tweets from Iggy and Lakshya saying the only condition Dems should demand to fund the government is an agreement to extend current ACA subsidies for one year.

I wonder what kind of training could teach these guys to be decent humans ๐Ÿ™„ Tear this agency out by the roots. That's the only way you reform this.

OK frenz, random research. What aspects of the surveillance state creep you out the most, personally? Could be specific products (Meta Glasses, e.g.) Could be things they know about you (where you go, ovulation cycles, e.g.) Could just be something you think they probably know! (GIF for a laugh)

Did a chatbot built by Palantir and Anthropic tell US forces to bomb a school full of little girls in Iran? The evidence sure seems to point that direction. From Gaza to the Caribbean to Tehran to your own intestines, letting chatbots guide life and death decisions looks worse every day.

Markwayne Mullin is bad. AND we should celebrate Kristi Noem getting shitcanned. The fascists need the air of invincibility to succeed. Every time we take one down, it's a new hole in their narrative. Celebrate that we knocked ICE Barbie out, then get ready to fight the Cosplay Cowboy

"If we were in a relationship, I'd be the man in the relationship." -Markwayne Mullin on his "new friend" Sean O'Brien, Feb. 2025. Wonder if the Teamsters will stand up to DHS violating its members' civil rights or if Sean and Markwayne will just have a good laugh about it over cigars.
