The feds kidnapping and trafficking people is a violent crime. Protesting it is fighting back against abuses of power. The government claiming protestors started the violence is DARVO—Deny, Attack, and Reverse Victim and Offender. It’s what abusers do when they face consequences.

This is how it’s done! FRIDAY: South Park, San Diego, neighbors weren’t having it. When ICE rolled up on an Italian restaurant in unmarked cars and started grabbing workers, the community hit the streets. (Sound up)

By day, I’m running for Congress. By night, I wait tables. I know what working-class Wisconsinites are up against — and I’m tired of us being ignored in D.C. That’s why I’m in this fight. Can you repost, follow, and help me defeat Derrick Van Orden?

This is rather good. And yeah, that a person in their early 80’s might need some sort of mobility aid in the near future isn’t news. @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social

Just signed the lease for another year on my apartment. It was 42 pages long, sign here, initial there, for 42 pages. For a studio apartment (built in 1963) in a college town. The world has truly lost its mind.

Why does Medicaid have at least 85% support in every CD? Because Medicaid funding supports useful stuff in our communities. See previous post for context.

I want a political party, could be the Democrats could be someone else, that does useful stuff. The political and social left, center, and right are all, at least theoretically, capable of doing useful stuff.

The Mississippi Commercial Fisheries United Inc. accused the Mississippi Legislature of "an unconstitutional private leasing scheme" that "would unjustly exclude our current oyster fishing families from their direct access to harvest from reefs that they rely upon for their livelihoods.”

The biggest story on June 14 won’t be Trump’s birthday parade in DC — it will be what happens everywhere else. We’re taking to the streets on No Kings Day with events planned in all 50 states. Please join us for this national day of defiance: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

Thank you and more like this, please.
