The armed, yellow-vested "peacekeepers" at the Utah 50501 protest in Salt Lake City opened fire into a crowd, hitting two people: A Sāmoan fashion designer with two young kids, who died. A second-generation Venezuelan immigrant and antiracist protester who was legally carrying. Cops charged HIM.

I straight up saw people on here claiming that Gamboa "charged the crowd" with a rifle. Very fucked up in light of all this info.

Thanks for getting this scary art student off the streets, guys /s

We're living under fascism. ORGANIZE YOUR OWN THINGS IF YOU DON'T LIKE WHAT'S ON OFFER. Jesus Christ.

My moment has finally come! One drab winter's day in Savannah, GA, I decided to treat myself to a movie. I popped into the restroom before finding my seat, and proceeded to drop the kids off at the pool, as it were. A pair of red stiletto heels were visible from the stall next to mine. 1/

these are rallies. I've been biting my tongue for the past week re: the scare tactics.

This week on Live Like the World is Dying, @jamesstout.bsky.social and Miriam talk about how to stay safe with danger all around. They talk health and safety basics for protests like security culture, protective gear, first-aid kits, and dangers like projectiles, tear gas, and pepper spray.(1/2)

I'm gonna be honest here- not feeling great.

full blown police riot in progress. never let them reframe this.

"I hereby call into Federal service members and units of the National Guard ... to temporarily protect ICE & other [USG] personnel who are performing Federal functions ... at locations where protests ... are occurring or are likely to occur based on current threat assessments and planned operations"

I know everyone is loving the Musk schadenfreude but we have to stay on the alert for the possibility that Musk is going to turn his sights to those centrist dem conventions going on and further entrench transphobia and anti-immigrant sentiment. And they would easily work with him.

An ICE agent sporting a valknut tattoo (commonly associated with white supremacist "Odinist" groups in the US) was spotted during an immigration raid in Massachusetts last week.

This is more true than ever. These people are bad at managing complexity. They are arrogant, lazy, and incompetent. Force them to fight complex battles on every front simultaneously.

I'm good, thanks

Isn't the simplest explanation just that the Millers are both power hungry sycophants?
