People are dunking on the posts from rapid response groups in the DC area about why they don’t use whistles But those groups are making these kinds of decisions after talking with a whole bunch of people in the targeted communities. They’re not doing it arbitrarily

I haven't seen the dunks but I will say that LOCAL CONDITIONS have to determine TACTICS. Folks, whistles are just a tactic and tactics vary according to context. Why waste time on this? If you've organized for 10 minutes, you know this is true. Keep it moving.

My wheelchair won't turn on and a wheelchair technician won't be available until the 15th...

It’s Giving Tuesday! This year, why don’t you give to mutual aid, either groups or literally just give money to your neighbors in need? If you’re in DC, @remorahousedc.bsky.social and @ftpmutualaid.bsky.social are awesome options

‼️DONATIONS NEEDED‼️ Help our friend and her son stay housed!! Preventing eviction is the number one way to end homelessness. Donate if able! C*shapp: $costarica245 Payp*l: Isaac2490 Thank you all! Love & solidarity!

Hey y'all, this is genuinely the last day to support Melissa. You all can help prevent the loss of housing! Any small amount helps!! En masse, it would take so little from everyone. Please support and share if you can. We have been working with her for a while now and can vouch - she is good people!

Show some love for our neighbor!

Hey y'all! This didn't get great traction last time. A friend of FTP is struggling and needs help after being sketchily turned away by some other local organizers. We now have a smaller short-term goal to keep her phone on. Please share and support! Feel free to send us donos labeled "for M" for her

Donate if able! Share widely! Love & solidarity!

A good friend and community member of ours needs some ongoing love and support! Y'all can help us keep her and her surviving son safe and stable!

Big delivery week! Got out 6 tents & 6 carts as well as two big boxes of bread to our friends at @ftpmutualaid.bsky.social! Shoutout to Mala, our most important team member, for her hard work.

Yet again reminding everyone that the feds did not “back off” of Chicago

This is horrifying & devastating. Every single person that has said unhoused people are dangerous, that they are undeserving of support, that they need to just be cleared out & warehoused for forced treatment, contributed to this happening. Hating homeless people is a bipartisan policy position.

In light of current events, this felt appropriate to bring back to social media!

just one more cop bro. i promise bro just one more cop and it'll fix everything bro. bro. just one more cop. please just one more. one more cop and we can fix this whole problem bro. bro cmon just give me one more cop i promise bro. bro bro please i just need one more cop thats it.

I am organizing multiple workshops this week for Chicago activists and organizers as we prepare for a possible military occupation of our city. I am tired but moving fast.

To Chicago comrades & anyone else facing possible federal occupation: The National Guard is standing around for photo ops. DHS, ICE, FBI, DEA, ATF, are working with local police to terrorize & kidnap our neighbors. Organize accordingly.

It turns out the answer to “why is Mayor Bowser doing this” is “because she wants to.”

Full compliance with her reactionary contemporaries. Full collusion in the fascist invasion of DC and the mass disappearances of unhoused and migrant residents of the city. Muriel's magnum opus of shit. Shame on you, @mayorbowser.bsky.social, your legacy is one of unfettered evil

Getting supplies to friends and 200 more “How to Report Ice” zines (link to print your own in linktree and comment below) to as many little free libraries as we can find!

Esta mañana (1/9) a las 8am federales detuvieron a una pareja en la 18 con Park NW. Rompieron la ventana, arrastraron al esposo y los arrestaron. Cuando un miembro de la comunidad paró para grabar, fue agarrado y amenazado con spray de pimienta por este pedazo de mierda.

@mayorbowser.bsky.social You are aiding and abetting this every single day. We can't even record these atrocities without being threatened? Call your dogs back and stop hurting our people!

Agents dispersed shortly after posting. Sources saw them at Fort Totten immediately after, something to consider. We are also seeing more Border Patrol agents. Please alert us, @remorahousedc.bsky.social , or @dcmigrantmutualaid.org at the hotline at 202-335-1183 with pics if you see anything else!

Present is DC's least favorite Cowboys fan Sgt. Mark Millhouse. We hate you! All of DC hates you!

ALERT: Several US Customs and Border Patrol agents spotted with several Metro PD officers at Rhode Island Avenue Metro. Currently standing around but there are 10-12 officers on site. This is current as of 8/31/25 at 4:09 PM. Stay away!

Today’s side quest: sticking a whole bunch of these “How to Report ICE: DC Edition” zines in little free libraries around town. Has DC specific info & the @dcmigrantmutualaid.org hotline & guidance. Zines courtesy of @meganpiont.bsky.social, who has made a lotta these for a lotta states.

MPD is having a fucking field day right now. They’re establishing the checkpoints we’re seeing. They’re rolling up at schools. The city’s encampment eviction team is bypassing local protocol & clearing camps with no notice. The Feds opened the door & the city is happily joining in.

‼️ALERTA‼️ Punto de control activo en Georgia Ave y Dahlia St. MPD y otros agentes sin identificación visto parando los coches a las 10:55am, Agosto 30

This is an agency Mayor Bowser welcomes into DC

Cops treating themselves to Rita's after doing their little checkpoint operation and damaging people's lives like it's Little League and they just got their concession stand tickets

Muriel's never met a bus she won't throw us under.

Do you think O'Hanlon knows everybody hates his guts?

Free them all means free them from the psych wards! ✌🏽

"It is without a doubt the most illegal search I've ever seen in my life," U.S. Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui said from the bench. "I'm absolutely flabbergasted at what has happened. A high school student would know this was an illegal search." www.npr.org/2025/08/26/g...

Reminder of the ten metro stations the National Guard is patrolling. They have also been spotted on foot patrol on streets around these stops, not just inside the station.

We talked to @igd.bsky.social about the ongoing resistance and mutual aid efforts happening in DC as the military and federal police occupy our city. Check it out! itsgoingdown.org/whole-city-f...

“The Whole City is Fighting Back”: Remora House on Grassroots Resistance to Military Occupation in DC

Reliable sources on the ground confirmed that the feds were basically singing "10 years, federal charges, hah hah!" walking them over to their cars. They're willing to just throw lives away forever to appease their egos and fulfill their orders. Please, show up and show out for Caballo!

Marsha P. Johnson’s legacy lives on through cultivation of healthy community, empowering Black trans women, and participation in mutual aid and resource sharing. I would suggest reading “Marsha: The Joy and Defiance of Marsha P. Johnson,” by Black trans luminary Tourmaline.

Happy birthday Marsha P. Johnson, visionary and fiery Black trans activist who birthed a movement. She’d by 80 today, and should still be alive. Her legacy is one of revolutionary advocacy for global LGBTQ+ liberation. Her life is a testament to the need for sex worker rights & decriminalization.
