If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

There’s a reason why both things are true, that most men are not sexual abusers, and most women have been sexually abused. It’s because we keep letting some guys get away with it over and over and over again.

A customer told me she couldn't believe this store would put up a Pride display, because what if children see it?? Anyway, it was my display, and I'm proud of it, and you (and your children) should all see it. #BookSky 📚💙

Promises made, promises broken.

Dear America: please don’t trust your Executive Branch. You can still trust your friendly docs at AAFP.org, aap.org, and acog.org.

Zohran Mamdani is standing up to the oligarchy and fighting to make one of America’s most expensive cities affordable for the working class. If you’re a New York City voter, I urge you to rank him #1 on your ballot by next Tuesday. @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

ICE's increasingly aggressive tactics are unacceptable and dangerous. They do not make us any safer. I’m calling for an independent investigation right now — this abuse of power must end.

Your friendly Bsky family doc says that heat kills more people in America than any other weather condition. Take it seriously! Look after your children, elders, and your community.

Congress has the sole power to declare war – full stop. The idea that the US would potentially deploy a bunker buster bomb in Iran w/out Congressional approval not only flies in the face of our Constitution, it would also rope us into another forever war that Americans do not want.

I don't know about you guys but every afterschool special I ever watched tells me that men shoving people into unmarked vans are the bad guys

On Juneteenth, ‘Sinners’ surpasses ‘Jaws’ as the highest grossing original (‘It’ is highest but it was a remake) horror film ever.

BREAKING: We just sued the Department of Homeland Security over their use of excessive force against protesters, reporters and legal observers. Exercising our rights to free speech should never be met with retaliatory attacks by federal agents. We’ll see you in court, DHS.

You know your country has screwed up priorities when it pretends it doesn't have the money to prevent LGBTQ teen suicides but it *does* have the funds to subsidize the wealthiest man in the world's engineering incompetence. www.cbsnews.com/news/video-s...

If ICE is willing to use a Dodgers game to kidnap people, why would anyone from another country come here for the 2028 Summer Olympics?

ICE agents are complaining that every time they go out (unmasked/in unmarked cars) protesters are dumping pounds of glitter on them. So people can identify them as ICE for days afterward. Time to buy glitter . . .

Juneteenth went uncelebrated by the White House. That alone says everything you need to know about this regime.

Juneteenth is a day of reflection and recognition. More than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation, freedom finally reached enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas. Black history is American history. Because American history is the struggle and success of Black Americans. (1/2)

Happy Juneteenth! Today commemorates the end of slavery in the U.S. It’s a day to celebrate Black strength, resiliency, and joy. But as Trump tries to reverse progress, we all need to recognize how his cruelty disproportionately impacts Black Americans. 1/

So unemployment up. Jobless claims up. Inflation up. GDP down. Dollar plummeting. More wars abroad. Soldiers on the streets at home. By every objective metric, this administration is a disaster.

I think we can stop paying the world’s worst man billions to make exploding rockets. Find someone nice—like Weird Al, for example; I bet he will build exploding rockets for 1/10th the cost.

Waking up this Freedom Day to celebrate Opal Lee and her relentless activism.

I will never again see an ICE agent without assuming they're from Proud Boys or Oath Keepers, a pardoned Jan 6 rioter or a member of the KKK.

No contracts for #fElon. Rescind SpaceX funding.

Despite new challenges, Juneteenth event organizers are unbowed. Listen up, and know your history. #SaveNPR #Juneteenth one.npr.org/i/nx-s1-5011...

New book drop…

"I'm happy to report I'm just fine. I lost a button. But I'm gonna sleep in my bed tonight, safe, with my family... At that elevator, I was separated from someone named Edgardo... Edgardo is in ICE detention and he's not going to sleep in his bed tonight."

L.A. police pushed down a journalist helping an injured man and broke his camera

No one is talking about the fact that Republicans’ budget bill would trigger $500 BILLION IN MEDICARE CUTS. Your grandma’s care is on the chopping block. All for billionaire tax breaks. We have to fight this.

Mental chains are the first to be broken in every successful uprising. So many of us have internalized the colonizer’s narrative and believe that empire is invincible. Don’t accept their depiction of reality. We outnumber the bloodsuckers 1000 to 1. Victory is not impossible. It’s INEVITABLE.

Isn’t it about time ICE friendly NY Dems(Torres, Schumer, Jeffries) reverse course and vigorously talk about consequences for these ICE actions. Demonstrate some courage for a fucking change.

North Korea out there calling balls and strikes.

This weekend, CA-14 showed up and stood strong in huge numbers to say we reject authoritarianism in all forms! No kings, no crowns, just people power!

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.

HOLY SHIT, Philly showed up strong for No Kings Day! This is what democracy looks like! 🙏💪

Thank you for your attention to this matter! #NoKings

When NO KINGS reigns over your parade. #SAD 🤣

The scale of the rally in Portland is MASSIVE. Simultaneously crossing the Morrison and Hawthorne Bridges in one long parade of democracy. Tens of thousands of people. #NoKings
