Just want to take a moment to shout out the international reporters helping us get the real story out. When an 80-year-old veteran with a walker is hauled off with his hands zip-tied behind his back, and the media spins it as a “threatening breach” of a police barricade

Last night, Capitol Police arrested roughly 60 veterans and their family members outside the U.S. Capitol. The group had gathered to hold a peaceful sit-in on the Capitol steps, but police intentionally set up a barrier of bike racks to prevent them from demonstrating.

It’s looking more and more like a dictatorship. That’s no way to treat a U.S. Senator. Claiming he was an attacker and failed to identify himself is delusional he’s a sitting senator. America is watching, and the tides are turning.

I've been watching news 4's live stream of the protest all evening and this is such overkill!! 100-200 people still at city hall. Bike police. Sheriffs office, sapd, and national guard??? For that many?? Come on!

On June 14th, we show up. Coalition members will be present at all 1,800 events nationwide, over 90,000 strong, helping monitor local conditions. Many veterans have stepped forward to support protesters, stand in solidarity, and defend our right to be heard. We thank them.

I am personally not seeing anything on my sm about what's happening here in TX just like LA. Protests have been happening and specifically Austin and Dallas ICE has been fighting back. 0 news coverage. Then just right now I find Abott is deploying national guard here to SATX due to our many planned

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

BREAKING NEWS: Trump has deployed the National Guard to Los Angeles. In addition, this morning, protestors resisted ICE in lower Manhattan, signifying the escalation of tensions with the federal government.

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

The deployment of federalized National Guard troops to California, without consent from local or state officials, is deeply troubling. These are tactics seen in authoritarian regimes, not in America. We want to be clear, the military should not be used to police civilians.

Today is exactly 1 year since I stopped drinking alcohol. Which is pretty huge. So in honor of this milestone... I'm going to share the 3 reasons I used to drink as an autistic person... the reason I chose to stop... and why I'll never drink again. Here goes...

If we make eye contact we'll still be autistic If we make small talk we'll still be autistic If you never see us have a meltdown we'll still be autistic These are differences that reach into our brains, our muscles and our gut. They're not trainable.

The world would be a much better place if people actually said to autistics what they clearly want without the rubbish of implied and unwritten rules. Doing what was asked then being lectured about not doing what was implied does not count as a better place.

Autism for me is being terrible at small talk but amazing at deep conversations.

A sad and frustrating reality about autism is that most people place their own (incorrect) meaning to your actions and don't care that they misread/misunderstood your intentions. And also aren't open to understanding them.

7 reasons being autistic is so. freaking. exhausting. 1. We're in constant sensory overload 2. We're constantly fighting against our executive dysfunction to do basic necessary life tasks

Autistic life is being told “just have fun with it” like executive dysfunction isn't doing squats in the corner all day.

Woke up and found out an opportunity I applied for didn't work out. I looked more into it and found out that someone who hasn't treated me correctly in the past was going to be there too....always trust that the universe is protecting you for a reason! Even when you can't see the bigger picture.

I've been seeing lots of posts about if you voted for Trump you shouldn't be allowed to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. But I think if you voted for Trump and live in satx you shouldn't be allowed to celebrate Fiesta

The U.S. Army is planning a massive parade in Washington for its 250th anniversary conveniently on Trump’s 79th birthday. It will feature 150 vehicles, 50 aircraft, 6,600 troops, fireworks, and a full day of festivities. All on the taxpayers’ dime, of course.

ICE has begun raiding the homes of American citizens. A widely shared story out of Oklahoma describes a disturbing incident where a woman and her children were dragged into their yard half-naked. Reports are mounting across multiple states of agents targeting the wrong properties.

My autism causes me extreme distress and anxiety when my needs aren't met. Any resulting behaviors you can see are a direct result of that anxiety. The behaviors are a SYMPTOM... not the cause. Anxiety is ALSO a symptom, not the cause...
