Just be nice. If you can’t be kind, at least don’t be an a hole. Also: privilege comes with responsibility. Use it!

🚨 ICE disappeared a woman on Wednesday night. She was grabbed by men in plainclothes and taken to an unidentified location. ICE is refusing to say where she is being held. It’s 72 hours later and not even a dedicated team of lawyers can find her. This is WRONG. We can’t let this be the new norm.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

Federal and local law enforcement wearing masks is just plain unamerican. It’s a cowards move, and shows the fact that the kinds of deportations happening and the methods are, shameful and unpopular. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/why-are-fe...

NEW: Read the whistleblower letter that proves Trump's DoJ intentionally defied court orders and lied to Judge Boasberg in the Alien Enemies Act Proclamation case. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/new-eviden...

RFK Jr. is flogging wearable diet/exercise monitors that cost “80 bucks a month”. This is a good demonstration of his complete lack of understanding about public health and people with differing resources from those that he enjoys. Feed them. Pay them a livable wage. Don’t track their behavior.

DISASTROUS. This means they will send people to horrific situations with no due process — in direct violation of promises the Solicitor General made to the Court in previous cases. This greenlights sending people to be enslaved in Libya or tortured in any random foreign country.

I am looking for congressional leaders to come out quickly and forcefully against this. We need unequivocal opposition. We need theatric demonstrations of defiance. We need to see leadership. Trump will steamroll us all if we display weakness. Where are our leaders?

does anyone know if there is a central repository for ICE videos? Like, somewhere that is collecting all of them for posterity and/or research purposes

Tolkien’s palantir fell under the control of Sauron. Peter Thiel’s Palantir is falling under the control of Trump. How this story ends is up to all of us. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/palantir-the-worst-of-the-corporate

These are not police. By law, they have to identify. If they won’t—copy their plates, call the actual police and let them know you are witnessing armed police impersonators.

If Trump sells off federal land, it’s not just a deal — it’s a death sentence for public power. You’d better believe billionaires won’t turn Yellowstone into a picnic spot. It’s extraction... eviction...and erasure disguised as “freedom.” And once it’s gone? It’s gone forever.

Six former CDC vaccine chairs are sounding the alarm—and we better listen. The U.S. is on the brink of losing access to life-saving immunizations. When science is attacked and trust is eroded, lives will be lost. This is not a drill. This is a national emergency.

We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.

It is alarming that they are not ringing the alarms. I do not want to hear a replay of the drumbeat for the Iraq War - when Republicans led and the media and many Dems danced along. We need vocal, moral, rallying, decisive leadership against war with Iran, and we need it ASAP.

I don't know about you...but I'm disturbed by the amount of hell NOT being raised by leadership about masked individuals jumping out of unmarked vans, refusing to identify themselves...and just shoving people into a Goddamn vehicle and whisking them away.

Transgender people deserve to dictate our own lives and futures. No court decision can change who we know we are.
