The IRS recently collected $1 billion from millionaire tax cheats. Just imagine raking in $1 million in a single year, and then not paying taxes. Democrats fought for IRS funding to crack down on rich tax cheats. Every Republican voted no.

Many thanks to the editors of the Pinch Journal for including my prose poem "All the Women I Asked" in their online version. pinchjournal.com/blog-posts/all…

Republicans are smearing the free school breakfast & lunch program Gov Tim Walz signed into law as “socialism.” Meanwhile, Trump’s Project 2025 calls for slashing existing school lunch programs on p. 302 of the playbook. Why does the GOP want to see children go hungry?

I can't get over the signs. Republicans held their Nuremberg rally last month, and shook their official MASS DEPORTATION NOW signs representing accelerated atrocity against our neighbors on an unimaginable scale. The choice this presents is stark. It should be starker. 🧵

I’ve never understood how Christianity is supposed to be any more true than the Indigenous religions of my Pawnee, Ponca and Kiowa ancestors. They used to make fun of Native American spirituality for talking to the wind, but what is praying if not talking to the wind as well?

Trump's Project 2025 calls for slashing regulations on nuclear reactors on p. 369 of their playbook. On p. 371 it calls for privatizing nuclear waste disposal. What could go wrong?

One bit of Native American history that absolutely must be taught in US history classes is the California genocide. Blood was entirely on the hands of the US as more than 100000 Indigenous Californians died in the first 25 years after the US annexation. Can’t let it be erased!

Incredibly, #Catholic grandchildren and great-grandchildren of Bohemian, Croatian, Irish, Italian, Polish, and Slovak immigrants—it may not be good that you're here, per the #TrumpVance2024 campaign. The costs of #racism get higher every day, don't they?

you’re launching a voter suppression project

My name is Jonathan Nez. I am the former Navajo Nation President running for Congress to defeat extremist Eli Crane and flip Arizona's 2nd. This race will decide the House majority. Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help us make history in Arizona? #NezForAZ

I don't think I'll ever get over Clarence Thomas ruling on cases related to Jan 6 knowing that his wife was an active participant in the attempted coup. Or ruling on cases related to govt regulations and a wealth tax knowing he took gifts from billionaires. It's a disgrace.

So, SOME white people (MAGA’s) get offended when I post this. Asking my absolutely amazing white allies, supporters and digital friends — does this offend you in any way?

Arkansas bans nearly all abortions, calling itself a "pro-life" state. It has the nation’s highest maternal mortality rate. One of the highest infant mortality rates. It's one of two states that cut off Medicaid to mothers 60 days after giving birth. How is this "pro-life"?

September 2024 dmqreview.com/salon/2024/8/2… Downbeat and delicious, John Amen invites us into some of the darker corners of the bureaucratic nightmare we call life.

Let me get this straight. Republicans are banning books, drag shows, and life-saving gender-affirming care, all to "protect children" But they're also rolling back child labor laws, blocking gun reform, and passing laws to force adolescents to give birth. Do I have that right?

BREAKING: Donald Trump just announced if he wins, he will lift sanctions on Russia and Iran. This is why Putin was paying millions to Republican influencers. He’s bought control of Trump’s party. Retweet so all Americans see this alarming announcement.

The economy continues to grow, but Fed interest rate hikes (meant to cool inflation) have succeeded in slowing job growth. Unfortunately, rate hikes do nothing to stop price-gouging made possible by corporate consolidation. Workers shouldn't pay the price for corporate greed.

The US Catholic bishops are shamefully silent over Trumpism. It’s not surprising, though. Catholic bishops in fascist or fascist-adjacent countries in the 1930s also stayed silent for the most part.

Goodbye to the mighty Fred Jameson. When I read him, have the rare sense of thinking with a critic who has truly seen & affirmed the premises of his own claims about history, culture, and power. Taking his seminar on Benjamin was one of the best things in my whole education. ❤️
