So many videos are circulating of ICE agents acting with cruelty and aggression. Behavior that eerily mirrors the “domestic terrorism” they claim to oppose. No one is forcing them to act this way; it’s a choice.

Dear White Liberals, Our job now is to spend all our privilege. Our job now is to help passive allies to become active allies. Our job now is to use our bodies when we are proximate to the frontline of fascism. “Good Germans” made Nazism possible. Don’t let that be you. #NeverAgainIsNow

Read this. It's horrifying. Democratic governors, mayors and councils need to proactively mobilize their National Guard units and police departments to protect their residents from lawless federal agents making arrests without warrants.

Opinion from the FT's Editorial Board: 'The US and European countries that tout Israel as an ally that shares their values have issued barely a word of condemnation. They should be ashamed of their silence, and stop enabling Netanyahu to act with impunity.' www.ft.com/content/f5fd...

Saw Fortune Feimster last night. I am the blur shaking her hand, telling her she gave the best answer I have ever heard to the popular question, “If you could have any superpower, what would you choose?” Her answer was: “I would be able to pull all the garbage, and pollution out of the oceans”

@davidjoy.bsky.social speaks with clarity and conviction about why choosing to celebrate the confederacy is wrong. "And then I grew up. And I read books." This is why racists hate civil rights and equality being taught in school or anywhere else. Because most informed people, choose decency. ♥️👍🏿

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 43 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

This cover, though very pointed and accurate, makes me very sad that we have come to this. How were so many people willing to vote for this little boy? How were so many willing to give up on democracy. How were so many this stupid. And how were so many willing to sit out the election and allow this?

Andry Romero, a gay makeup artist came to the US last year in search of asylum. He did not show up for his scheduled court date - ICE had seized him & took him to brutal prison in El Salvador. His family is desperately worried. Senator request to see him was denied. Proof of life denied.

Maddow: 88% of the country says no, no, he cannot defy a supreme court ruling. Only 9% say yes he can. And you know, it's not the same thing. But I should mention that 9% is also the proportion of Americans who told yougov this week that they have a favorable view of the black plague

Tomorrow, a certain online mega-retailer launches a book sale, just days before Indie Bookstore Day on 4/26. This is no coincidence; Bookstore Day is one of the largest revenue drivers for indies. Indies need our support to thrive & build community spaces for all...mega-retailers do not.
