I'm refinancing this terrible loan and the bank person grimaced when they saw this.

Make your work a form of protest.

Do you have some flexibility with where or when you work? Some ideas: Organize a "work-in" somewhere like your city hall, capitol, ICE building, court, town square, etc. Bring signs and flyers.

Do you work onsite somewhere but have a lunch break? Some ideas: Organize a lunchtime demonstration with your coworkers outside or a reading or action group.

You're a homemaker, stay at home parent or caregiver? Some ideas: Have sign making parties with the kids, build collectives to help each other with childcare and collectivize tasks, have phone call action hours where you take turns caring for the kids while some of you call your elected officials.

Have flexibility with what you can wear? Some ideas: wear your support as tshirts, pins, hats, etc.

Have any kind of job? Some ideas: talk with your coworkers, figure out actions you can take within your organization to protect your community from the trump regime, create resistance in your organization, unionize.

As an example, I recently encountered one of these AI bots ^[1]^ in Ibis's GitHub repository ^[2]^.

Can’t fix stupid or brainwashed.

After seeing Cory Booker's speech, I got an idea for another poster. Feel free to use it as you see fit. Distribute it and put it up where ever you want.

It's formatted for 8.5x11, so you should be able to just print it off and go.

Just off the top of my head, there's Scarecrow, Ivy, Harley, Hugo Strange, Kirk Langstrom, and I think I read that Freeze had his revoked.

Gather around for tales of the Beforetimes when everything seemed brighter and more optimistic, even if the websites were basic and often stupid and sometimes downright tasteless.

So come along all you jaded old greybeards and plucky young Internet archaeologists, share what you've found out there in the patched deserts of the Internet outside of the great walled cities of the Big Web.

The Republican-led Senate has delivered a rare rebuke of President Donald Trump and his signature trade agenda.

Senators voted 51-48 Wednesday to reject the national emergency Trump declared earlier this year to justify his plan to slap 25 percent tariffs on Canadian imports. The vote took place hours after Trump delivered remarks from the White House rolling out his latest plans to slap new tariffs on a wide range of products.

Republican Sens. Susan Collins, Mitch McConnell, Lisa Murkowski and Rand Paul joined all Democrats in backing a resolution from Virginia Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine that would end that national emergency. Paul, of Kentucky, co-sponsored the measure.

McConnell offered Paul, a fellow Kentuckian, a fist-bump on the chamber floor. They broke out into applause as the gavel went down and closed the vote.

The Trump administration’s recent announcement that the Environmental Protection Agency will roll back dozens of regulations protecting air and water quality has drawn praise from industry groups and condemnation from environmentalists. But one stakeholder has been conspicuously absent: the self-described health freedom movement known as MAHA.

Summary

Senator Cory Booker’s speech on TikTok live surpassed 350 million likes as he stood for over 25 hours speaking in the Senate chamber.

Booker broke Strom Thurmond’s record for the longest Senate speech, which lasted 24 hours and 18 minutes in 1957 to block civil rights legislation.

Summary

Trump's approval rating dropped to 43%, the lowest since his January return to office, amid backlash over new tariffs and a mishandled military strike disclosure.

The Reuters/Ipsos poll found only 37% approve of his economic leadership, and 34% support his foreign policy.

A majority view his tariff hikes as harmful, while 74% criticized the use of Signal to discuss a Yemen operation.

The poll, conducted online with 1,486 adults, showed bipartisan concern and a 2-point decline since March, reflecting rising unease over Trump's policies.
