The United Nations Refugee Agency warns the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran has forced 3.2 million people to flee their homes in less than two weeks, creating a humanitarian crisis on a massive scale.
Israel’s military has dropped all charges against five soldiers who were accused of assaulting and gang-raping a Palestinian man detained at the Sde Teiman prison in 2024.
Some 20,000 children have been abducted and sent to Russia and Belarus, where they are sometimes subjected to military training and even forced to fight against Ukraine.
The meatpacking workers, many of whom are immigrants, have described low wages, being forced to pay for personal protective gear out of pocket, and say they face discrimination over their immigration status.
The State of our Union is traumatizing our children.
And that is because of the violent rhetoric & policies enacted by the Occupant of the Oval Office.
That’s why I’m boycotting #SOTU tonight & my honorary guests are children who’ve been directly harmed & impacted by ICE.

Trump ran on a promise that ICE would go after the “worst" criminals.
But the real crime is in oligarchs taking $170b from your healthcare and food assistance to form a secret police force.
Our country has defeated fascism before and it is time we fight to uphold our legacy.
This Friday.

Two recent cases in Chicago illustrate the terror and violence that Trump's crackdown is causing among immigrant communities.
@amnesty.org has released a report on the "global political economy” enabling genocide against Palestinians.
The report names Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Elbit Systems, Hyundai and Palantir, among others.
The American people deserve real accountability—not these selective investigations. If there are questions about misconduct, we should follow the facts.
Have y'all heard of the Project 2025 Heat Map that outlines how 1/3 of the goals have already been achieved? Check out this site and follow: www.project2025.observer Call your representatives and ask them if they are aware of this site and how much of their plans have been implemented.

Fuck Uber.
Trump deploys Marines to L.A. and plans a grotesque military parade as California fights back. Newsom sues. The GOP budget stalls—again. Trump’s trade lies exposed. We break it all down on the MeidasTouch Podcast. Watch live at 8p ET/5p PT!
President Trump ordered active-duty Marines to be deployed against immigrants' rights protestors in Los Angeles.
This unnecessary move only inflames tensions and does nothing to protect us and our rights — the military does not belong in our communities.
ICE raided Los Angeles elementary schools in an attempt to kidnap small children. They hid their identities, claimed they weren't ICE, and lied to school authorities that they had "permission" from the parents to take the children out. School officials luckily didn't fall for it.

Taking the drug made one writer feel so sick she quit and focused on healthy habits instead of her body size. Turns out, 65% of people using GLP-1 drugs for weight loss quit within a year.

More inventory hitting the market was expected to drive sales. Instead, existing home sales suggest a continued slump in the housing market, with mortgage rates hurting affordability.
Trump attacks the press as the “enemy of the people,” insults journalists and even incites violence against them. Now, in his second term, his attacks have multiplied, not only on news outlets that report his abuses, but on the very existence of a free press. www.democracynow.org/2025/4/24/tr...
Offering folks $5,000 to have a baby is wild—especially when y’all are the same ones trying to slash SNAP and Medicaid. The very benefits millions of Americans rely on to survive.
Since when did raising a baby only cost $5,000?
As someone who grew up idolizing independent record labels like Dischord and Matador I was fascinated (in a sad way) by this @nicksylvester.bsky.social piece on the diminished role of the indie in today’s music industry

Lawyers for Luigi Mangione asked a federal court on Friday to bar prosecutors from seeking the death penalty against him, arguing that Attorney General Pam Bondi’s recently announced decision to do so was “explicitly and unapologetically political.”
A federal judge in Maryland wants the government to "facilitate" Abrego Garcia's return to the U.S. after the Supreme Court largely upheld her original order.
Compromising on non-issues is why this party’s approval ratings is in the toilet. Good luck with that.
It’s as if China had all this shit saved in drafts. They been waiting on this.
