So many things are happening that I missed this. Yet Trump’s economic malfeasance still doesn’t move the GOP in Congress to take action.

Imagine suing an entire state to defend your right to spread hate.

While busy claiming control of the skies over Iran for “us”, Israel still has time to continue committing genocide and ethnic cleansing on Gaza while busy discriminating against its own Palestinian citizens. 😔

An active duty service member has been sent to a mental health facility against his will after speaking out about ICE’s legal and humanitarian abuses. TikTokers took action, including writing @governor.ca.gov /

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife. While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE. This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

WHY aren’t the courts DEMANDING that warrants be produced before ICE and their affiliated goons can make arrests? WHERE is John Roberts? The fear that doing so will precipitate a Constitutional crisis is absurd—we’re well past that point. ICE and their volunteer goons are beyond reach—but maybe 1/

I do not believe Netanyahu has any interest in or understanding of how to end Israeli and US conflict with Iran. He is bent on genocide, ethnic cleansing, and war. 😔

Please read and share this statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman, children of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark. (via WCCO reporter Caroline Cummings on X)

Love this! #NoKings

They’re gonna be soooooo surprised when Trump’s ICE goons show up for their guns.

I doubt anyone will see me post, but this needs to be known... if you have a visible following please repost 💙🔥💙 Admitting he wants "his people... aka US " to behave like north Korea for Kim Jong Un.🤬

May I just point out Rep Kenyatta stood his ground and was elected again (🥳), while David Hogg chose to pack his bag and go home?

Grok (powered by XAI, currently poisoning Memphis) didn’t back up Elon’s claim that “the left is murderously violent” — so he’s going to “fix that” 🤔 AI is a propaganda tool of whoever controls it

I’m not falling for the ‘you have to condemn Iran just as hard’ trap when what you really want is cover for Zionism or Western militarism. I'm not playing that game anymore, sorry. If you like that sort of shit, go watch Piers Morgan.

Please, all that is good in the universe, why can’t we do this everywhere? Why are we giving more money to Bezos, Zuckerberg, Musk, et al, when programs like these give us back our friends and family? Our parents, children, cousins, aunts and uncles?

😔

Look what I found when I searched "ICE uniform" in Google Shopping. None of us have any way of knowing if the "ICE agent" pushing you into a car, isn't just some unbalanced vigilante into cosplay. These are very dangerous times.

at this point believing a masked man refusing to ID himself and claiming to be law enforcement is inviting self harm

The truth is in this country who is legitimately a member of law enforcement is impossible to know. Masked individuals in civilian clothes with unmarked vehicles are taking people without warrants—people in uniforms are rounding up innocents. Who is legitimately law enforcement and who do we fear?

How dare a coward who used bone spurs send Capitol Police to arrest these vets and their families? And frankly, why would members of the Capitol Police agree to be part of Trump’s goon squads? He pardoned the very people who attacked them on Jan 6, ffs!!

Is anyone really surprised by this? Iran negotiated a deal by which they were abiding with Obama which Trump trashed—so he could fail at getting a new one? AFTER giving Iran years to make progress towards bombs? Israel attacks surrounding countries while committing genocide and ethnic cleansing 1/

We haven’t been able to afford museums or zoos in ten to 15 years, at least. These organizations deserve local, state, and federal support bc their missions and benefits to citizens are important.

Please, ya’ll, be safe out there today. I’m sorry I won’t be out there. I was unable to find care for my disabled adult son today. It isn’t safe to take him, for medical reasons, and if things go bad, I can’t protect him. 😔

For Dallas protesters: I'm on the Police Oversight Board. If you'd like to file a complaint against an officer for behaving unprofessionally or abusively, let me know and I'll connect you to the right folks. At the same time, if you'd like to commend an officer for being helpful, also let me know.

BREAKING: Marines — soldiers trained to kill — roll up on a Black man in LA for the high crime of minding his own business. Alone. Unarmed. Quiet. They think you’re the real threat. Our military is turning its weapons inward.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Sound familiar?

I stayed up late illustrating something for no real reason. I definitely didn't give out a google drive link with a high res version of it among friends and family for printing purposes.

The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals has just given Trump the green light to go after protesters anywhere and everywhere this weekend.

ALL of this.

ICE is all over Yamhill County, Oregon please share & protect your neighbors. They are going to grade schools in Newberg right now
