Gift article: this morning the Marines detained a Veteran who was trying to enter the VA building they have blocked patient access to all week. The administration is denying veterans access to healthcare for their political theater. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/13/u...

To those who still somehow say you’re overreacting to say we are far past the point of historic crisis, go back to summer 2024 and say that in less than a year the president of the United States would be deploying the literal Marines on American soil to deal with and intimidate his political enemies

If you had been told the loud noises were not loud & the scratchy shirts were not scratchy, your whole life, you too would be a bit stubborn is all I'm saying.

This time-lapse video of protesters marching down Broadway in Oakland for No Kings Day gives an idea of how many people turned out today @sfchronicle.com

Holy shit, New York! Here’s the full view. #NoKings #50501Movement

People are being arrested for wearing a medical mask in Savannah, Georgia #NoKings

Just finished up at the Evanston No Kings rally. It was safe, peaceful, and a show of solidarity by *at least* 1,000 people. Go to your local protest. Don’t let this administration scare you. Stand with your community when our leaders won’t.

Chicago showed the fuck up!

I accept a person's right not to get vaccinated What I don't accept is for them to make it so difficult & expensive that it's impossible for me to get vaccinated What about my rights to access healthcare? Maybe a lawyer or healthcare expert can look at this for Albertans #ableg #alberta #abpoli

You can’t see me bc I’m holding a flag but guys I live in a 2k person extremely rural town in one of the reddest counties of WI. So many people showed up there was a line all the way to the highway. I often feel a bit afraid due to my identity in this area but #nokings brought out so many

Tens of thousands came out to #NoKings San Diego. Zero arrests. The only violence is that I was stung by a bee.

Chardon, Ohio, population 5242 in 2020 census, had approximately 400 people show up in the rain. #nokings

The revolution is full of 60-year-old women who love their trans kids.

It’s intolerable that Minnesota Democrats not only has to endure the brutal murder of political leaders, but the far-right faction that did it insists that we somehow did it to ourselves. Our society cannot operate inside the ocean of lies that Musk and his neo-Nazi cronies have created

ICE agents cover their faces with gators, yet in Nassau County you can be arrested for wearing an N95. It’s not about health. It’s not about crime. It’s about protecting the surveillance state and punishing people with disabilities.

UPDATE: Minnesota authorities have identified Vance Boelter (57) as the alleged murderer. The kill list recovered from his car also targets Gov Tim Walz, Rep. Ilhan Omar, several Democratic lawmakers, & abortion-care providers. If you know where Boelter is call MN state tip line at (651) 555-TIPS.

Rep Hortman and I were classmates at the Kennedy School and graduated together in 2018. It took me a moment to realize the person who I remember as deeply service driven and incredibly bright was the victim of last night’s heinous act. She was a bright light and made us all better.

Does anyone think these unspeakably evil political assassinations of Democratic lawmakers would’ve occurred without the vicious permission structure erected by Trump, Vance, Rubio, and their MAGAts? www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

The protests have, to a degree, WORKED. Trump has now PAUSED ICE raids on farms, hotels, and restaurants. THIS STUFF WORKS.

I guess Covid cautious or immunocompromised people aren't allowed to protest. But it's ok for ICE to run around in balaclavas like assholes

Tbh not sure this is real but sharing because it did have some info in it about people.

1. Trans troops are now being separated from their jobs, and we have learned what discharge code they are being given: "JDK," a code that was used to remove communists and gay people, and can be seen as a "black mark" on their service. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

This is insane

BREAKING: Reuters has published video images of Marines carrying out the first known detention of civilian in Los Angeles

they’re trying to soft ban hrt until they can ban it outright. those are prohibitive prices for 99% of trans women

medical necessity override was denied so the here's the tally for my first trip to the pharmacy since louisiana banned trans hrt on medicaid: from $0/mo to $240/mo for my cypionate & prog

"Doctors looked at my body, and couldn’t decide whether to mark M or F on my birth certificate. So instead of changing the form, they tried to change my body. "What I experienced is the opposite of gender-affirming care; it's gender enforcement... "I deserved to make those decisions for myself."

Do you want cars on your city streets that don't recognize a school bus and will run over kids? Yeah, we didn't think so. FSD is a pipe dream that puts pedestrians and drivers in danger @realdanodowd.bsky.social @resistaustin.bsky.social #teslatakedown #MuskMustFall www.youtube.com/watch?v=aC2k...

FOR OBVIOUS REASONS, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ARE UP TO DATE ON YOUR VACCINATIONS NOW.

PBS is funded two years ahead, so that a political party could not come in and shut them down, without two years for them to fight, or find other funding. Again, breach of the constitution. Not that anyone seems to care much about that anymore. Did they ever?

Something to keep in mind when it comes to "trans issues" is that no journalist is writing an article about following a trans person about on a normal day they have just existing. The only way they get clicks is by sensationalizing and demonizing us. That's one reason why there's more of that.

I'm the mom of a now-adult transgender son. I live in a blue area in a blue state. The reality is NOTHING like the sensationalized soundbites and images from the anti-trans crowd. As I've offered before, if you want to know how stuff actually works, ask me! Happy to answer reasonable questions.
