Thank you for defending the trans community, Mr. Pritzker !!!

Hoo boy. Brutal.

It's like the Waffle House index. www.wfae.org/wfaeats/2016...

Note that the masked paramilitary cowards in ICE aren't going into dangerous neighborhoods to get gang members. They are going to restaurants, public parks and courthouses to abduct line cooks, nannies and asyum seekers following the rules. Pathetic goons calling themselves men.

This is like, 1/6 of the state

Omg @bruceshark.bsky.social Dude.

Needs to happen

Padilla: I was forced to the ground, first on my knees and then flat on my chest. And as I was handcuffed and marched down a hallway repeatedly asking, why am I being detained? Not once did they tell me why. I pray you never have a moment like this

A Black woman in a wheelchair found herself trapped among protesters. A line cook heading home feom work was caught in a cloud of tear gas, and an unhoused woman sitting on a bench was grabbed and shoved towards protesters. Read the full report by @shoton35mm.bsky.social lataco.com/homeless-get...

SCOOP: The "Appeal To Heaven" flag, a popular symbol for Christian nationalists that was waved by January 6 rioters, was raised over the Small Business Administration headquarters last week.

Oof. BlueSky is more like ThunderCloud today with all the reviling of the #altgov accounts. 🧵 Skepticism is generally a healthy thing and something I encourage, although it seems rather silly that any of us feel the need to explain the reasons for our anonymity but since I’m okay with having to

We have one website volunteer for @vilocalhistory.bsky.social and they spend the majority of their time thwarting AI scrapers. What’s on our website? Transcribed historical documents and blog posts that took many hundreds of staff and volunteers hours to produce.

ICE seems to have accessed the chat secretively and thru cop stuff—“ICE … is not technically part of the group chat. But the chat does include agents from Homeland Security Investigations, or HSI — which falls under ICE’s jurisdiction”—but (good news?) nothing here indicates Signal was insecure…

For @motherjones.com, I'm interested in hearing about grassroots projects in local communities that aim to help disabled/aging residents when climate disasters strike. Please be in touch at [email protected] if you have any examples and reposts appreciated.

they’ve gone from “clearly uniformed” to “partially uniformed” to “in no way identifiable” in like three weeks

This isn't just about California. It’s about how we treat our fellow human beings. It’s about how we treat families. It’s about who we are. I stand with @padilla.senate.gov

Hey y’all, I’ve been thinking about how fast things changed for all Latiné people in LA. And what I’ve personally done to protect myself and my family. I thought it might be helpful for some of you so thought I’d share. 🧵

I wrote this four days ago. Today, they arrested the NYC Comptroller.

So extremely proud to work with such talented litigators. This is a massive and critical win. www.ifyoucankeepit.org/p/breaking-n...

Would you look at that.

Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

What if there is no pendulum?

The Senator who should be censured is Mike Lee—for his vile posts after the brutal murders of two elected officials and attempted murders of two more in Minnesota. Not Senator Padilla, who was also a victim of violence—courtesy of puppy-killer Kristi Noem.

“We” are fighting a foreign war with zero consultation with or authorization from Congress, and no address to the nation other than Truth Social posts.

The people of Utah should be organizing a recall election of Mike Lee right now, or be viewed as an embarrassment to all of us and the world! He really qualifies Asshole of the Week!!

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.

Now this

Both sides news coverage is killing democracy and there is no place where it is more dangerous that in how legacy media covers the GOP attacks on free and fair elections. For my latest and to access all Democracy Docket premium content, sign-up now. newsletters.democracydocket.com/member-meblu...
