what is it called when people who aren't cops and don't have a warrant drag you away, because I don't think "arrest" is the word

Chickaloon, Alaska consists of 250 families spread out over 8 miles off the highway, 70 miles north of Anchorage. #NoKings #June14 @indivisible.org @50501movement.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com @altnps.bsky.social 📸 Donna Braendel, 77 years young

At least 12 million people ( 3.7% of US pop) took a stand against the Trump regime and fascism on Saturday. The next step is a national general strike and boycotts. When 3.5% of the whole population of a nation has begun to participate in resistance, success is inevitable. #3E #NoKings #StopICE

It was really just a concept of a parade

We, the people, have spoken!

It is with deep sorrow that I share that Kitty has passed away at 18 years old. Shortly after I posted about him a month ago, he took a bad turn. He had a seizure and went over the 🌈 bridge Tuesday. Thank you for all the joy you gave. You are deeply missed my cuddle bug.😢💔 #caturday #catsofbluesky

Chicago congresswoman @repdeliaramirez hands Kristi Noem a letter of resignation and encourages her to use it 👀

Unite and take over

We’re in the streets in downtown Chicago.

Right. He hasn't heard of any protests. And all around the country, we will be there.

If you're out protesting, please photograph and document ICE agents. They are building a database of confirmed ICE agents. Help them and spread this message crustiandaily.com/ice-list/

This indictment is no more justified than the original charges. I will not be intimidated. My full statement:

In a stark warning to fellow Republicans, Sen. Jim Justice (R-WV) cautioned that their plan to require states to share the burden of funding the U.S.'s largest food assistance program could backfire and cost the GOP control of Congress.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Crowds at the LA Football Club chanting Fuck ICE! Music to my ears!

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

1/ California is the FRONT LINE! Trump says he’s restoring order in California. There was no disorder, until he brought it. He sent troops to provoke chaos, not prevent it. This is a power grab, not peacekeeping. Don’t be fooled. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue

call me a naïve leftist but i think abducting people and holding them in inhumane conditions before they can be shipped to a slave labour prison complex is a crime against humanity and there is very little that is not justified in its prevention if the law has failed to protect, the people must

It’s also 5 years ago dumbass.

In claiming that those dropped from Medicaid will be put on employers’ insurance plans instead, James Lankford just enunciated Trickle Down 2.0: Healthcare Edition. It’s a lie, just like classic trickle-down economics. This budget plan will give us a sicker America. www.alternet.org/james-lankfo...

Happy Fragile Straight Man Month!

Donold has gone from "Obama wasn't born in America" to "they're eating the pets" to "Biden was replaced by a robot". This is what mental deterioration looks like.

Trumpism is doomed. Not because of Trump but because of the amoral bootlickers that giddily support his cruelty. They don’t think it will hurt them, but history has proven that fascist movements always destroy the people who built it. How are Mike Pence, Rudy Giuliani and MyPillow guy doing?

I've recently read 32 of your posts and interacted with 17 of them. Why aren't you love with me yet?

Saturday night 🔥🔥🔥 Malcolm Kenyatta killing it—torching Musk, dragging Joni Ernst, & calling out the DC clown show for what it is. He said it loud: that town is a hot mess! More of this energy, please🤩 @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social

Because the music that they constantly play, it says nothing to me about my life

Guy is high as a kite at the Oval Office and that NYTimes story from early today is definitely fake news 🤣

Spare me the fake outrage. None of these people showing up for court are criminals of any kind. As a prosecutor, I worked with many ICE officers who arrested violent criminals. None of them wore masks. Many of your agents are clearly ashamed to carry out your orders.

A recent report found that Elon Musk faced at least $2.37B in potential legal liability from 11 fed agencies as of Inauguration Day. As he exits, these agencies are still on DOGE's chopping block or have dropped investigations into his corporations. See what this was about?

In case this isn’t obvious: In a healthy political system, if officials released a hyped report on health policy, and the document relied on scientific sources that didn’t exist, those officials would be expected to resign — quickly. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

This could be a fun drinking game…

Basically ambivalent about who makes it out of this series, but anybody who doesn't like Naz Reid should be immediately checked for all major diseases. The Tom Hanks of power forwards.
