I listened to NPR for like five minutes today. They had on Sarah Isgur to talk about what a tough spot Roberts was in because Biden was prosecuting his opponent for a crime for which he wasn’t impeached.

It really is that serious, folks. Please be kind to one another, especially now. Vote in November up and down the ballot, but know that as the probability of #KingTrump increases, we must learn to rely on each other and our community for protection. (1/3)

"The question is, will we care and mourn haplessly, in isolation, as people’s lives, lands, and freedoms are lost, or will we build strong networks of community members who can take bold actions in defense of one another when people are under threat?"

Some thoughts on how to navigate this moment.

Take a Deep Breath and Think About What You Need to Doorganizingmythoughts.org How powerful will we choose to become as the world falls down and what will we have the potential to build?

Regarding the world-changing Immunity Decision. At least 5 of the Supreme Court’s conservatives are long time members of the Federalist Society, one of whose core beliefs is that our country was never meant to be a democracy. And now they’ve taken a giant step toward exactly that.

The Return of the Imperial Presidencythinkbigpicture.substack.com The radical Supreme Court has given Donald Trump everything he asked for and more with immunity.

🚨NEW: Biden is trying to only allow voters to have one choice: Vote for the incapacitated president, or get Trump and the end of democracy. That blackmaill strategy relies on you thinking there’s no alternative - even though there absolutely is.

Is This Really How It All Ends?www.levernews.com Biden’s blackmail strategy relies on you thinking there’s no alternative - even though there is.

Happy Fourth of July from the Supreme Court! wapo.st/3xEpj4E

Opinion | The Supreme Court rules to restore the monarchywapo.st Why should ruling the country in robes, unaccountable to anyone, be solely the province of justices?

Doomerism is chickenshit. an embarrassment to every ape that threw a rock at a bear to protect the tribe. if you actually believe this doomer shit what are you posting for? it's chickenshit and i will have no truck with it. you had something better to do with your life than make the world better?

BREAKING, July 1st, 2024. Justice Sotomayor warns, in all uses of official power, "the President is now a king above the law...With fear for our democracy, I dissent." 🕴🕴️🕴️🕴️🕴️🕴️ amp.theguardian.com/us-news/live... 👑🗣🙇🙇⌖⚰️ www.msnbc.com/msnbc/amp/sh...

SCOTUS today abolished "Chevron deference," legal precedent that gave wide rules-making authority to administrative agencies. Essentially, eliminated ability of agencies to create regulations on things like clean air & water, workers' rights, unfair lending...Even worse than overturning of Roe (1/2)

Listen up, America. We hear you—you LOVE old guys. Well, check it out. We've got a guy who's even more vintage than anything else on offer, AND as an added bonus he's not incoherent or sociopathic. All day, every day, we still #FeelTheBern

Meet Wesley Bell, a prosecutor who got his start managing GOP campaigns. He's running against Squad member Congressmember Cori Bush & he's raised $800K from Zionists & anti-abortion Republicans. Here he is, spouting clueless, vapid nonsense. Anyway. Donate to @coribush.bsky.social : coribush.org

“Have any of you even read Howard Zinn?” We’d easily settle for President Lisa Simpson right about now.

(1/2) Upset that Jamaal Bowman lost? Well, we have a chance of preventing it from happening again. @coribush.bsky.social was down 20 points against her AIPAC-backed opponent, & she's narrowed it to a single point. We MUST do our part to prevent MAGA $ from getting that seat All. Hands. On. Deck.

Previously, NY-16 encompassed a larger section of the Bronx, the state’s poorest county. Rest of NY-16 lay in Westchester, NY’s 2nd wealthiest county. No surprise that George Latimer, Jamaal Bowman’s opponent, had a huge part in shady redistricting that helped him win. (1/3)

Left-leaning & progressive candidates did GREAT tonight in New York, except in races where $25M of dark money poured in from lobbyists for a foreign government. (1/2)

If electoral politics didn’t matter, billionaires at AIPAC wouldn’t be spending $17,000 per hour to unseat @jamaalbowmanny.bsky.social with a corporate Democrat. Remember New York, vote this Tuesday (June 25) and bring a friend. 🗳️✊🏾✊🏿 #NY16 #WestchesterCounty #MountVernon #NewRochelle #Yonkers #Bronx

Jamaal Bowman is the real thing. he went to Israel and saw what it has become www.politico.com/news/magazin...

A Trip to Israel Changed Jamaal Bowman’s World View — And Could Cost Him His Reelectionwww.politico.com During a 2021 visit to the West Bank, the New York congressman lost his hope for a two-state solution.

On 🇮🇱’s most watched news program, former Likud MP Moshe Feiglin invoked ***Hitler*** to justify Gaza resettlement. 🫣 His words: "As Hitler said, 'I cannot live if one Jew is left,' we can't live here if one 'Islamo-nazi' remains in Gaza."

"We are not guests in our country, this is our country, all of it..." Feiglin said, adding, "As Hitler said, 'I cannot live if one Jew is left.' We can't live here if one 'Islamo-Nazi' remains in Gaza." I wouldn’t think “as Hitler said” would work in a political speech, but here we are.

Just a reminder, these are the peeps in Congress who are actually on our side. (Some of ya’ll keep forgetting, and it’s always the folks who be watching ol’ Jimmy Doreknob). Don’t see your elected official on this list? Leave a comment on your congressperson’s IG and urge them to #RejectAIPAC now!

Today, IfNotNow announced that Rep. Ayanna Pressley and 11 other Democrats have pledged to reject any contributions from AIPAC. This is just the beginning. Next Thursday, June 13 at 8pm EST, join us for a national call. We'll share what we've got planned & how to get involved. innmvmt.org/613

The NAACP have long been an important voice for justice and liberation. We're grateful to see them join the many voices calling for Biden to stop using our tax dollars to send weapons to murder Gazans.
