If US Mayors and Governors were actually serious about confronting ICE they’d call for the creation of a citizen’s self-defence force or order riot police to intervene to block the raids.

Republicans in Congress have worked TWO WEEKS out of the last THREE MONTHS! If you or I no-showed for 10 out of 12 weeks of work? GMAFB

Trump's ballroom donors include: -Google, whose CEO thanked Trump for "resolution" of an antitrust case -Palantir, which has lucrative contracts with ICE -Blackstone's Stephen Schwarzman, who would profit from Trump's regulatory rollbacks for private equity Pay-to-play.

Stop calling them immigrants, protestors, or activists. Refer to them as civilians. Take control of the language and defuse their narrative. #3E

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase. The President is building an army to attack his own country.

Release the Epstein files.

MAGA troll farms attempted to gaslight the US public to turn them away from the NoKings protest coverage. They spread disinformation ranging from "the protests aren't real" to "these videos are from [insert different date or event]". It was a coordinated disinfo attack.

Sharing this for one reason: I caught it without sound and it really hits home how all of this is a performance for right wing bigots. Watch it w/o sound. What would you think he’s talking about? Something serious? Something important? He looks like a used-car salesman trying to sell a mattress

Here's an issue from the Purdue Univ. student paper, The Exponent, dealing with the IU censorship of their student paper. Purdue put it in IU news boxes. (Purdue & IU are normally huge sports rivals.) Download link: www.purdueexponent.org/frontpdf/lat...

Incredible. If you grew up in Indiana, you know what a big deal this is.

Okay new idea for a library service: leave a hobby take a hobby. When people get bored with a hobby they can come and leave their supplies and books and half-finished things, and exchange them for someone else’s supplies and books and half-finished things. Hobby swap.

Remember just because you are peaceful it doesn’t mean the regime will be. The protests are expected to be peaceful however the regime wants to crackdown with or without an excuse, don’t give them the satisfaction of arresting or terrorizing you. Be cool, be brave, and be strong. #3E #NoKings

The regime wants you to focus on their accounts & narrative, by engaging directly with them you are following their lead. They need the attention you give their trolling / posts to distract you from their actions. Block them and double down on their actions, the Epstein files, and crimes. #3E

For the second time in two years, a sea otter has stolen a surfboard from a surfer in Santa Cruz. This time, the surfer seems to have been bitten (nipped) by the otter-thief. The otter's bite did not break her skin, and she was not transported to the hospital. 🏄‍♀️ www.ksbw.com/article/sea-...

A Frog Warning So MagaMike, read your Bible to Trump and all his ICE "officials".

We didn't do anything extraordinary here. Sure, I wrote a nice script, and my friend @barubin.bsky.social did a fantastic job overlaying visuals. But what we're saying is pretty obvious. What I wonder is why *we* have to say these things as opposed to, I don't know, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social?

I haven’t been able to digest this one since I saw it in July. #NYT defending democracy as „partisan act“.
