Voters deserve to hear from @BernieSanders
@JoeBiden about differences on #ClimateChange #Healthcare #PublicEducation before they go to ballot box. @DNC changed upcoming debate to town hall - but #WeDeserveADebate! Sign our petition if you agree.

No low is too low for MAGA… now explain to me why an institution would be receiving threats because of the commencement speech that I GAVE.

This type of behavior is why I’m constantly having to be protected & I understand that truth telling in this country; sadly, is a dangerous business, but college students don’t deserve this.

As a side note: you consistently prove me right & just as this was the only campus that MLK could speak at in Mississippi in the 1960s… it’s 2025, and this country is still stuck on hate… I’m proud to say Tougaloo is tough & so am I.

BREAKING: The Trump admin accidentally texted a journalist, Jeffrey Goldberg, from The Atlantic, their top-secret war plans on Yemen.

Texts are below between Vance and Hegseth, in which the journalist was included.

Imagine if Biden did this! So incompetent.

Karoline Leavett was just humiliated on LIVE TV:

Leavitt: “The judge is a Democratic activist judge appointed by Barack Obama.”

Reporter: “He was originally appointed by George W. Bush.”

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

During a highly unusual speech at the DOJ, Donald Trump said that CNN and MSNBC are ‘illegal.’

This is what fascism looks like.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

If the federal government can disappear a legal US permanent resident without reason or warrant, then they can disappear US citizens too.

Anyone - left, right, or center - who has highlighted the importance of constitutional rights + free speech should be sounding the alarm now.

A huge win for federal workers

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

Ronald Reagan perfectly sums up tariffs.

The logic is sound.

And the price of eggs? Nothing on eggs

WTF is this

If you're feeling down about everything, I recommend watching this beautiful, inspiring 10-minute video by @mainmaing and @brettpstory about the recent @amazonlabor strikes

BREAKING: In a stunning announcement, Donald Trump just said he will deport U.S. citizens who have undocumented parents. This is Trump’s veiled way of saying he’s going after Dreamers.

"The single best thing you can do to honor Jane is to sign up for an Organizing for Power course—or read her classic No Shortcuts—and then go out and organize your co-workers," @_ericblanc writes: https://t.co/EnPPQmVLud

[Doug Henwood @DougHenwood]

@rsgexp She was a fabulous thinker and organizer, absolutely tireless in her dedication to the cause of increasing working class power. There aren't many like her. A life very well lived.

Reading the initial reactions, it's clear she influenced countless numbers of people.

"Workers everywhere are smart enough and strong enough to negotiate and win, against their bosses and against the people broiling our planet. Let’s get to it!”– Jane McAlevey, “Rules To Win By” (2023)

"Read her work not just for the lessons, but also for the matter-of-fact, stubborn, compassionate voice with which Jane writes and teaches. A voice determined to prove to the workers of the world: we all deserve more, we all deserve dignity, and we already have what we need right here with each other– we just have to organize and be smart about it."
Art & words by Margaret Vail Palmquist

Rest in peace, Jane. Solidarity forever.
