- Reposted by Tammie VisintainerOur founders, though deeply flawed, understood that democracy requires an informed citizenry and a government accountable to it people. That’s why the press is the only profession protected by the Constitution. It’s also why autocrats and oligarchs seek to control and destroy it.
- Reposted by Tammie Visintaineragain we do not really do a good job of explaining how wealthy people like Jeff Bezos are his net worth is $253.2 billion. so he could take one million dollars, and just light it on fire and then do it again tomorrow and again the day after that and then do it every day for 693 years and 8 months
- This interview! How the principal and teachers at Liam Ramos’s elementary school are navigating the ICE invasion. I love the community-based practices they use, adapted by age group. Teachers do so much to create safety and community for students! Shout out to Leila Fadel @npr.org 🫶🏼

- Reposted by Tammie VisintainerYesterday was AMAZING! 🚴♀️ An estimated 100k cyclists from 200 cities road a Memorial Bike Ride to honor Alex Pretti. Why? Because Alex was an avid cyclist. 🥹 I'll admit this had my tear ducts gushing for a full 5 minutes. Fascists vs Cyclists. 🚴♀️ Here's a montage of my fav clips - Part 1 👇🏼🧵
- Shout out to @propublica.org for releasing the names of the agents who murdered Alex Pretti and for this powerful statement from the editors. The fact that the agents were Latino; racial hierarchy is a real MFer, ppl kill for proximity to whiteness, abolishing white supremacy is the only way to RISE
- These are shocking, inhumane times when the felon remains in office after leading an insurrection, waging war on Americans, and the Epstein files are so vile and the network of rich white men so extensive it’s truly horrifying. Take care good people. There are way more of us than them! We need you💪🏼🫶🏼
