BREAKING: Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier is released from prison after nearly 50 years. For decades, Peltier, who is 80 years old, has maintained his innocence over the 1975 killing of two FBI agents in a shootout on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. Last month President Joseph Biden commuted Peltier's life sentence to serve the remainder of his time under house arrest.

🔥“If we organize and stick together, we can do a lot of things.”🔥 These powerful words from an Acero parent remind us that when parents, students, educators, and elected officials stand in solidarity, we can move mountains. The fight to save these schools isn’t just about keeping buildings open—it’s about fighting for stability, quality education, and a voice in the future of our schools. Together, we win.✊❤️ #WhenWeFightWeWin

If Republicans want to shut down the Department of Education, bring a bill to the floor. Show your constituents that you want to destroy public education. Don't make an unelected billionaire do it illegally because you're too afraid of being on record.

From 1619 to 1865, the US benefited from over 222 million hours of unpaid, dehumanizing, forced labor by enslaved black people per scholars. This labor- primarily the production of tobacco, rice, sugar, and cotton- would be valued at over $97 trillion today. Built off the backs.

Billionaires are seizing control of our government, agency by agency. Elon Musk, the richest man on the planet, is now calling the shots and Republicans are blocking our efforts to hold him accountable. This is oligarchy.

This is outrageous. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s rule to ban medical debt from credit reports would have removed $49 billion in medical debt and helped nearly 15 million Americans. The Trump Admin is once again siding with the rich and powerful over working people.

The so-called PayPal Mafia includes billionaires like Elon Musk, Peter Thiel and David Sacks, "all of whom in some way or other grew up in South Africa," says reporter @ChrisMcGreal. He details how the racist apartheid policies influenced some of these men now in Trump's orbit.

Elon Musk, an unelected billionaire, worth $420 billion, is dismantling our democracy. The GOP is protecting him at every turn. No one voted for Elon Musk. This is a constitutional crisis.

i cannot stress enough how much we shouldnt just be carrying on w the same organizing & movement strategies, campaigns, or demands as usual. a tech billionaire taking over fed government & gutting many of its (insufficient, yes, but needed) functions is a society-changing event.
Waleed Shahid 🪬@_waleedshahid

In any other country, a billionaire donor like Musk installing loyalists to seize federal agencies, access private citizen data and information about his competitors, and gut working class policies to fund his own tax cut would be called a coup.
