Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias.
He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends. The one person he told was ProPublica reporter @josh-kaplan.bsky.social.

Correct. Truman tried to create a national healthcare system around the same time that European nations were making theirs. It was killed by Dixiecrats because it would have required integrated hospital facilities.
This CEO has to be incredibly confident in his security detail.
"I believe that one thing that sets me apart in this is a significant part of my entire campaign is built around the promise of a transformed bus network. It is built around the promise of a world-class city having world-class transit." nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/12/03/p...
I wrote about South Korea's heroic coup resistance, which is basically a recap of all the incredible BlueSky reporting from today, and how I wish I were in the position to hoist my own representative's ass over a military baricade: www.laura-bassett.com/p/south-kore...
Interborough Express news: MTA construction chief Jamie Torres-Springer says the MTA is looking at a tunnel on Metropolitan Avenue in order to avoid street running in central Queens
Surround yourself with the kind of people who support their local library, bakery, bookstore, and café.
News has just broke that Trump plans to eject trans people from the military within days of inauguration.
Trans servicemembers who have served 19 years will lose their pensions and healthcare.
This is obscene. They served our country, and will be kicked to the side like trash.
Image of the cover of the New York Times featuring a large color photograph of a young boy from Gaza. He has light brown skin and dark short hair. He is looking down and off to the side. He is thin and wearing a white tank top, with his rib cage prominent. Both of his arms have been amputated.
Meanwhile, this is what Israel is doing to people in Gaza:
“Amputations. Disfiguration. Brain damage. Their injuries are life-changing… They are alive—even if some are not sure they still want to be.”

Service workers at the international airport in Charlotte, North Carolina, plan to go on strike during a busy week of Thanksgiving travel
“One has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws.” -Rev Dr Martin Luther King Jr.
And it’s on every cis person in this country to fiercely have trans people’s backs in every macro and micro way, now and always. In the bathroom & in the streets. When they’re present or not. Everywhere.
Blocking Nazis, trolls, and fascists doesn’t make it an “echo chamber.” People need to stop gaslighting us into thinking we have to listen to Nazis and debate trolls in order to be informed.
Poor people in NYC can’t afford cars and take the train.
I keep thinking about those congresspeople kneeling in the rotunda wearing kente cloth scarves, very performative. There has been no loud, visible, unified support for Sarah McBride from the democrats. It’s a real disgrace. That is your colleague! They are bullying her in your faces. And silence!
As reminder, congestion pricing funds are actually being shared with NJ. So these Democrats are now actively fighting against transit improvements that most of their constituents rely on to actually get to the city.
With Dems like these who needs the Republicans?
