I wanted Star Trek but we got the Sith Lord and the rise of the Galactic Empire. Reframing current events into the #StarWars universe is a delightful way to cope and to inspire a real live #RebelAlliance #CronesOfAnarchy #Army #Veteran #Coexist

"They're so proud of themselves, so fat and satisfied. They can't imagine that anyone like me would ever get inside their house, walk their floors, spit in their food" #CassianAndor open.substack.com/pub/thiswill...

New ICE uniforms just dropped

That would be awful. Don’t share this.

#BackSeatCapitalism: "Andor" is about the Bolshevik Revolution. No, seriously. by @rozsa.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/democrac...

“Oppression breeds rebellion” #CassianAndor The Revolution is happening and could become better than we imagined. I can only hope. This is a great watch/listen by Richard Wolff: youtu.be/bDTLjaXa0Bc?...

🚨 I have just introduced articles of impeachment against President Trump. Donald Trump is not above the law, and when he ignores the constitution, he should be held accountable.

The StarWars Resistance relied on a network of informants across the galaxy. The key to resisting and beating the Empire is truth, collaboration, and trust. Follow this resistance informant, read her book, “How to stand up to a Dictator” and follow her news media. @mariaressa.bsky.social Rappler.com

Stand up, fight back. The longer we wait, the harder this gets. Let's keep building toward that general strike @generalstrikeus.bsky.social

ICE disappearing people is the same as Tac-Corpo’s incarceration of #CassianAndor. CECOT makes Nakina-5 look like club-med. Trump’s dystopia is the most aggressive assault on human rights in U.S. presidential history. The Sith Lord’s Empire was meant to be a warning, not a prescription.

Our military has good leaders. Let’s get over the shock and recognize that the Empire is seeking loyalists. Any sign of unity among the Old Republic is a threat to their power: www.cbsnews.com/news/space-f...

Today's Headlines

Yes!

Before we start another week of the Musk and Trump dumpster fire circus act, I’m glad to have plenty of good news for you today. I hope it provides you with a sense of relief and shows you there are amazing people fighting the maga cult alongside us. READ:

Ahead of Andor visiting it, I wrote a little bit about Star Wars' historical treatment of Chandrila as more of a vague symbol of resistance to the Empire across both canons, and how, kind of in similar manner to its love of single-biome worlds, its culture has always been 'The Politics Planet'

From the second issue of IDW Publishing's Star Wars Adventures comic series on November 25, 2020. A young unknown rebel stands up to Kylo Ren and lives.

Yet again, it’s time to bring up a very important episode of @ricksteves.bsky.social . It’s very much worth your time to check it out and pay attention to how eerily similar it is to our current state of affairs. youtube.com/watch?v=JU1I...

Life in the Galactic Empire and rule by Darth Sidious.

Let's hit 5K and tell this turd just how much he stinks! Call for Global Referendum to Remove Donald Trump from Power chng.it/cHG5QsPVBx

I’m going!! Hoorahh!

Rep Zephyr’s speech flips 13 GOPs, trans bills die in Montana Trans people have been scapegoated so effectively (among older people) that we're flooded with models of how to hate. But when people hear the love behind why we stand up for each other, we win. Bravo, @zoandbehold.bsky.social!

The Empire focuses on enriching the ruling class and corporations within core systems, leaving outer rim planets with minimal economic benefits despite being vital sources of resources. Learn about the dangers of wealth gaps clearly explained: #RebelAlliance youtu.be/wPoXOwiEfrQ

🚨Trump & Musk are coming for your VA benefits. They’re coming for Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid. We can make it politically untenable—but we need your stories. VoteVets delivers the hardest-hitting ads in politics. Help us fight back. Submit now: votevets.org/doge-tipline

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Please read—this is becoming serious!

Just read this graf. Share it with people you know who don’t pay attention to politics or news.

I stand with Ukraine!

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

Democracies stand with Ukraine.

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY! If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK! Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore. JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺 #24HourEconomicBlackout

Defeat the First Order before they start woth more roasting like Rob James! www.threads.net/@stopfascism...

Just finished watching #SkeletonCrew AND I loved it! Definite commentary on the United States struggles at the present moment. I also see a nod to how the victors might choose to treat the misguided as we navigate our way back to democracy. WE WILL WIN! #RebelAlliance

Sacramento 50501 Not My Presidents Day Protest.

Over 4,400 U.S. Forest and National Park Service employees got fired today and Trump is also proposing a 880 Billion dollar cut to Medicaid, Medicare and Childrens health insurance programs, so that we can give tax cuts at a tune of 4.5 Trillion dollars to wealthy billionaires over the next 10 yrs.

Cleveland Sage is the most fragrant California Native Sage I have ever encountered. It’s sweet like perfume with a hint of pine. I can smell it 10 feet away even when not in bloom. This one has attracted a resident.

I’m going! West Steps Sacramento, CA!
