Reminder that “America First” has its origins in the anti-Semitic isolationist group that wanted FDR to abandon the UK to Hitler’s rampage.

"A big part of the problem with society is that, instead of fixing our problems, everyone is trying to make enough money so that the problems won't affect them."

I saw this online the other day, and the simple truth really struck home. People can't earn their way out of poor public health, climate change, degrading government services, growing wealth inequity, or diminishing worker protection.

It only takes 1 person. Pressure works. Protests work.

“Instead, Schwarz’s call rapidly spread online. His video has been shared more than 700K times on Instagram & viewed 8.5 mil times. Celebrities such as Stephen King, Bette Midler and Mark Ruffalo have encouraged people to participate. Reporters wrote and aired TV pieces about the boycott, propelling it further.”

Today’s ‘economic blackout’ began from an unlikely source. But it’s tapped into Americans’ anger

In early February, John Schwarz, a self-described “mindfulness and meditation facilitator,” proposed a 24-hour nationwide “economic blackout” of major chains on the last day of the month.

This is for Americans who don’t agree with how Trump is threatening Canada.

Thank you.

Any ire that you see me (or, I believe, any Canadian) post here is not directed at you. I know there are millions of you. I know you are trying. I know some of you feel hopeless and maybe even despondent, but know this.

Canada loves YOU. We always will.

Yes we are very angry at your leader and the people around him, and even at your country, because the President, is the Country, in a sense, but we know there are good Americans who never wanted any of this.

We know you will stand up for us. And if you need us, we will stand with you too. Because that’s what friends do.

❤️ 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 ❤️

"Two things that make America a democracy: Not having a king, and having a free press. A look inside the chilling cases from San Jose to Clarksdale that show a nation already on the brink of losing our First Amendment rights after just 1 month of #Trump

Trump’s rapid obliteration of the First Amendment is fit for a king

Government attacks on press freedom from Mississippi to the Oval Office have our First Amendment rights on the brink of collapse.

Trump’s Victory Lap on Mexico Tariffs Is a Giant Farce

Donald Trump is trying to claim he achieved a major victory with his threats to impose tariffs on Mexico. There’s just one glaring problem.

Just so everyone knows, in addition to @internetarchive 's hard work, @charlesgaba has created a full #archive of the #CDC #data and webpages pre #censorship . Grab it and share it wherever you can.
https://acasignups.net/25/02/02/llinks-archived-versions-every-cdcgov-page-available-pre-purge-part-1-15

Llinks to archived versions of every CDC.gov page available pre-purge (Part 1 of 15)

As horrific as it is that the Trump/Musk Administration is purging data from federal websites, it's good to know that the Internet Archive has been archiving much of it. However, in addition to the Archive not being able to mirror everything, there's also the problem of not always knowing what pages have been purged in the first place. With that in mind, I present a full list of and links to the archived versions of all ~7,200 individual HTML pages which were available at CDC.gov as of January 27, 2025. Since the full list is so unwieldy, I've broken it into 15 pages. The links are in alphabetical order by URL hierarchy.
