This new McCarthyism seeks to [...]

From press reports SCOTUS gutted key provisions of the Voting Rights Act as Change Links went to press. In a 6-3 vote, the high court found a Louisiana Congressional redistricting ordered by a lower court to be unconstitutional as what it termed a "racial gerrymander." The decision, not expected until June, was announced early enough that not only Louisiana but several other Southern states in the former slave-owning Confederacy will have time [...]

Normalizing Troops in US Streets

© by Mumia Abu-Jamal https://www.prisonradio.org/commentary/normalizing-troops-in-u-s-streets/ People always criticize the Congress, at least the Republicans in Congress for being too supine, and too prostrative when it comes to the president. Well, I don't think it's fair to charge just one branch of the government. We live in a country where the Supreme Court, which is the highest judicial power in the US, essentially gave unlimited power and immunity to the president on the [...]

City of Davis CA Boycotts Musk-Owned Companies, But Starlink Stays

https://opentools.ai/news/city-of-davis-passes-boycott-resolution-on-musk-owned-companies-but-starlink-stays [Excerpts] In an intriguing twist during a City of Davis city council meeting on February 17, 2026, a resolution to boycott Elon Musk's companies, such as Tesla and SpaceX, was approved, albeit with amendments. Interestingly, Starlink was exempted from this resolution due to its essential role in providing emergency services to the community.
