MAY 1st
Unions join community groups in planning marches, walkouts and economic actions on May 1 as a show of worker power ahead of the midterm elections.
Welcome! I’m Eugene Jarecki, maker of The Six Billion Dollar Man, about the U.S. government’s war on Julian Assange. When Jack Dorsey heard that the gatekeepers were blocking my film, he had the answer:

Since the recent news broke about the boys involved in the Epstein case at Zorro Ranch, I have received hundreds of messages inquiring about my own experiences as an underage minor in Chicago with Leslie Wexner and his friends in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
I no longer give interviews. The only exception I made was one conversation with Lisa Noelle Voldeng, which is available on her Substack.
March 2026: DOJ released 300 pages from Epstein’s 2006 Florida case. They showed prosecutors had evidence from 36 victims. The plea deal was negotiated without consulting a single one of them.
Do your representatives support genocide? Follow the money and find out.
AOC says Dems should respond to SCOTUS weakening the VRA by doing their own redistricting until a national gerrymander ban passes. Dems need better leadership, AOC is it.

Thomas Massie just delivered an urgent call to action:
“Americans are under attack by a German company.”
Bayer-Monsanto.
“People this week should be calling their congressmen … and saying, take the glyphosate immunity out of the Farm Bill.”
“It’s poison.”
“This administration has sided with the German company trying to get immunity from the harm that their products may cause.”
“Chellie Pingree and I … are trying to get them to strip the immunity for glyphosate that they’ve put into the Farm Bill.”
“Bayer’s product has become unprofitable because of the harm that state juries have decided has been caused to people.”
“And there’s something broader though than just glyphosate here.”
“This would set a precedent for every pesticide, every herbicide, every insecticide.”
“It would set a precedent that the EPA doesn’t exist to protect people and the environment.”
“It exists to give get-out-of-court-free cards to corporations.”

NEW: After the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act, legal scholars and pro-voting advocates are demanding reforms to the Court to preserve free and fair elections. “Either Democrats are going to fundamentally remake this institution or they are co-signing autocracy,” one law professor wrote.
Six good reasons why Supreme Court justices should not be appointed for life.
The Senate Banking Committee votes 13-11 to advance Kevin Warsh’s Fed chair nomination to the full Senate. Final vote is expected next month before Jerome Powell’s term ends May 15.
Rep. Sara Jacobs tells Pete Hegseth he may have MENTAL PROBLEMS if he thinks they are winning then war: “If you think that this is what winning looks like, then maybe we should be questioning your mental stability.” BOOM.
Do not stop talking about the Trump/Epstein files.

One of RFK Jr’s sons had been working for Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale’s 8VC and is now working on a new VC firm aimed at “emerging technologies” in healthcare. William Finbar “Finn” Kennedy is seeking to raise $100mn for the fund, Victura Ventures, targeting early-stage growth companies involved in healthcare AI, consumer health and other health technologies, the document said. The fund is named after a sailboat owned by former President John F Kennedy, his great uncle.
Right now, billions of people are watching videos.
Most of them are being processed by code one man wrote alone in 2000.
You’ve probably never heard his name.

Absolute Legend
In 2015, the Chinese police visited a programmer’s home.
They told him to stop working on his code. They told him to delete it from GitHub. He posted one final message before he obeyed:
“Two days ago the police came to me and wanted me to stop working on this. Today they asked me to delete all the code from GitHub. I have no choice but to obey. I hope one day I’ll live in a country where I have freedom to write any code I like without fearing.”
Then he deleted the repo.
Then he deleted the message.
Then something happened the Chinese government did not plan for.
Within hours, the code was mirrored to thousands of other GitHub accounts. Within days, it became the #1 trending repository on GitHub globally. Within weeks, every Chinese developer who could compile code had a copy.
The government tried to make it disappear. The act of trying made it permanent.
The project is called Shadowsocks. The programmer’s username was clowwindy.
He built a tiny piece of software that let anyone in China bypass the Great Firewall and reach the open internet. No subscription. No company. No account. You set up a server somewhere outside China. You connect to it. Your traffic looks like normal encrypted web browsing, so the firewall cannot tell you are using it.
Why this terrified the Chinese government in 2015:
→ It was open source. Anyone could compile it.
→ It was small. The whole protocol fit in a few hundred lines of code.
→ It looked like normal HTTPS traffic. The Great Firewall could not distinguish it.
→ It required no money. No accounts. No central server to seize.
→ It worked on every operating system.
You cannot arrest a protocol. You can only arrest the person who wrote it. So they did. And the protocol kept spreading.
shadowsocks-windows: 59,300+ stars. GPLv3. Still online 11 years later. The 2015 commits the Chinese government wanted deleted are still in the history.
clowwindy was forced to walk away. The code never did.
But DO NOT install it. The Great Firewall has feelings too.
100% Open Source.
