I’m glad that the walls seem to be closing in on Andrew Tate, but it took criminal investigations across three countries, dozens of outspoken victims, and a hit TV show implying he drives boys to murder girls for this to happen—and he still hasn’t been convicted yet. This is why 98% get away with it

NEW: This new report, from BBC, is the best takedown of the insanity of Trump you will see anywhere.
Calm, coherent and repeating only Trump’s own words. Devastating.
Brilliant work once again from Roz Atkins.

The march is now passing the Chicago city hall / Cook County hall building. The chant goes up,
"Minnesota don't you fear, we, the people, are right here"

If you're feeling helpless re: MN, look to the student leaders at Roosevelt High School: after ICE showed up aggro on campus, they staged a walkout — & now they're raising $ to help feed their classmates and their families

I’ve been feeling some kind of way today, so was glad this came across my feed and let me feel a little less helpless.
I’m teaming up with some fellow community members to place a big order with a restaurant that has seen its business disrupted by ICE presence on the south side. And what better way than to get food for neighbors in need?
Burritos are about $10 each- please donate to help us provide 50+ meals!

Starbucks @sbworkersunited.org baristas at corporate stores nationwide are on strike! For 4 years, they have fought tirelessly for a fair contract, and Starbucks has responded by union-busting.
America’s unions stand in solidarity with baristas. We have your backs! ✊

Brief thread on how we got here: Since the GOP won control of the House 2 years ago they have not passed a single appropriations package into law. Government has operated at funding levels set by Dems 2 years ago via continuing resolutions every few months. This is not normal.
