BREAKING: “October 3 will be a day of strike, with hundreds of initiatives in different Italian cities in support of the Global Sumud Flotilla, of peace, and to reaffirm international law,” CGIL, Italy’s largest trade union declares. CGIL said the strike was called in compliance with Law No. 146, “which provides for the possibility of proclaiming an immediate strike, without prior notice, when the protection of Italian citizens, at home or abroad, as well as the safeguarding of the fundamental principles on which the Republic is founded—peace, human rights, and respect for international obligations—are at stake.” “This is precisely the case with the aggression against the citizens, workers, and volunteers aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla engaged in a humanitarian action,” they added in a statement on X.

I noticed that too! I make 21.50 busting my butt in construction landscape out here in the hot Phoenix heat. My girl always getting receptionist job offers that pay 25$ 26$. Im glad for her but im like dam " us essential workers aren't appreciated enough".

Sometimes, absolutely. People chuck around terms all the time to silence nuanced discourse & critical thinking. HOWEVER especially in the case of SWERF… many a times it’s valid. There are women who would rather see their sisters homeless, ill & starving than have labour rights.

Also I hate to break it to you, but within sex work, the care industry, factory, farming etc selling your body under capitalism for money is normal. We can rally against that & attempt to overthrow capitalism & patriarchy but in the meantime support SW unions & decrim models.

He recently hosted a seder put together by a J-Street lobbyist. It's very sus for an ostensible anti-zionist to be making overtures to J-Street, a liberal zionist org which represents the left-wing of the Israel Lobby. Talking about 2 state solution... jta.org/2026/03/31/politics/…

Six weeks ago I told you they were coming for Big Bend. Yesterday a court cleared the way for border wall construction in the Big Bend National Park region. Here's what makes this so enraging: Big Bend National Park is one of the quietest stretches of the entire southern border. In FY2025, the Big Bend sector recorded just 3,096 apprehensions — 1.3% of all crossings nationwide. Border encounters there have dropped 74% since 2023. The land is remote, rugged, and brutal. It has always been its own deterrent. And yet — a 30-foot steel wall is coming anyway. What that wall will actually do: fragment critical habitat for black bears, mountain lions, and the endangered black-capped vireo. Sever one of the last wildlife corridors connecting the U.S. and Mexican Chihuahuan Desert — an ecosystem that doesn't recognize borders. Block the natural movement of over 450 bird species that pass through Big Bend. Flood one of the darkest night skies in North America with construction lights. Slice through 100 miles of the Wild and Scenic Rio Grande. To stop 1.3% of border crossings. On land that was already stopping them on its own. The administration has now waived the Endangered Species Act, the National Park Service Organic Act, and the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act — all at once — to make this happen. The first time in U.S. history any of that has been done inside a national park. They awarded $4.3 billion in contracts. Steel bollards are already on the ground near Van Horn. Construction starts this summer. Who do YOU think this wall is actually for? #DemsUnited

Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer caught on a hot mic talking about the controversial Al data center being built despite overwhelming opposition: "We're used to people saying 'f*ck no!', and then doing it anyway."
