Planning on voting in New Jersey's upcoming General Election? These are the dates to know ⤵️ Learn more: https://www.aclu-nj.org/campaigns-initiatives/your-new-jersey-election-guide/

Tonight @jimmykimmel.com and Disney stood up for free speech and our constitution. They are going toe to toe with an authoritarian president who is threatening all of our freedoms. Kimmel and Disney deserve our full support going forward. Let’s show them they have it and win this for freedom.

This should be the moment where Republicans take stock. Trump is deeply unwell. His health is declining. He embarrassed the country today. He’s not capable of doing the job. We are here now. No bullshit.

Hey NJ Voters: Mail-in ballots are on their way - and here's info for early in-person voting: -Any registered voter can cast their ballot in person every day from Oct. 25-Nov. 2. Hours are Mon-Sat 10a-8p, Sunday 10a-6p. -Where? At a location IN YOUR COUNTY listed here: www.onenj7.org/_files/ugd/0...

Kimmel getting his show back is not just about a late night tv program. It reveals Trump’s weakness. Trump wants everyone to think that submitting to his will is the only option – but that is a lie. Defiance is not only available, it is the strategic choice. indivisible.org/statements/i...

"The idea that women’s bodies are state resources for sustaining population appears to be re-emerging" Whew. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

An important piece.

The Trump regime's corruption could not be more blatant: -"Border czar" caught on tape taking $50K; bribery case dropped by DOJ -Trump orders DOJ to bring evidence-free charges against political opponents. We can't let the Trump Party gain power in Trenton! Make your plan to vote Dem down the line!

SUNDAY: We’re offering a training on how to identify, defuse, and prevent the spread of political violence. By standing up in defense of democracy and in opposition to violence, we spread the courage for more to do so.

Our problem is not the depravity, corruption, and narcissism of the president and his second rate minions, it’s the cowardly compliance of a great many wealthy and powerful people who could stop him and aren’t.

So many academics are on HB-1 visas. This is another attack by #RussellVought on universities and scientific research. Stop telling me anything this administration does is in good faith or with any sort of policy goal except destruction.

Very important element of this. This EO is designed to facilitate corruption and personalist rule.

"Among Republicans younger than 45, the decline is particularly glaring: 61% say the country is headed in the wrong direction, a spike of 30 percentage points since June, the last time the question was asked." www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

“In an undercover operation last year, the FBI recorded Tom Homan, now the White House border czar, accepting $50,000 in cash after indicating he could help the agents — who were posing as business executives — win government contracts in a second Trump administration” www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/t...

To recap, Trump signed a proclamation saying that after midnight tonight, no one with an H-1B visa may enter the US unless they have paid $100,000. However, anonymous White House officials are saying it doesn't apply to people with current H-1B visas — yet there is NO official guidance! None!

This has to stop. Everyone should circulate this video. Government bureaucrats’ abuse of power (here, violence) faces its biggest check when the people won’t tolerate it and act together. That’s all we have.

If we don’t speak up, the regime will only become more emboldened to target comedy, opinions, and news they don’t like. None of us will be free to dissent. None of us will be able to speak our minds. Join a peaceful protest to make it clear that America has NO KINGS: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

Do 2024 Trump voters and non-voters see what he’s wrought—what they’ve wrought—in the last 8 months? He still gets too much benefit of the doubt. What will it take? More inflation, job loss, disease and death? Maybe a government shutdown? It's all coming. My latest open.substack.com/pub/jilllawr...

OPINION: While the silencing of Kimmel has dominated the news, equally significant usurpations of freedom are going unnoticed. Trump is quietly targeting nonprofits by weaponizing the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. religionnews.com/2025/09/19/t...

It's worth examining this alongside the 2001 AUMF authorizing force against al Qaeda. Note the 2001 explicit tie to the actual armed attacks of 9/11. And note the lack of any tie to an armed attack in the proposal to give POTUS power to wage war against drug cartels and nations he claims harbor them

From the opinion throwing out Trump's ridic defamation suit: "A complaint is not a public forum for vituperation and invective. ...A complaint is not a megaphone for public relations or a podium for a passionate oration at a political rally." So dead on. See what court now does w/ WSJ defamation.

"In a ruling dripping with derision, a federal judge has rejected President Trump’s defamation lawsuit against The New York Times, asserting that the rambling 85-page suit did not follow federal rules for filing civil complaints." www.cnn.com/2025/09/19/m...

Wonderful video of the final section of Hands Across NJ actions on Constitution Day 9/17! 🙌 youtu.be/UNPr9aA_F40

Litigating who started it and branding people hypocrites is dumb. These are games for children. The real question facing people who believe in free speech is how do we unite to actually do something about it.

Uh, there is a lot to discuss. I'm looking forward to being in community with folks in 30 minutes to talk through how we organize effectively with everything happening right now. Join us and bring discussion topics!

Our former #NJ07 representative writes about how dictators historically have used shock over a violent incident to consolidate power and repress dissent. Meanwhile current Rep Tom Kean Jr says *nothing* about Trump's efforts to control speech, intimidate critics and label opponents as radicals.

No Kings on Oct 18 is going to be the largest peaceful protest in American history. The only way to protect our freedom of speech is to exercise our freedom of speech. Get to planning in your community asap. nokings.org

Happy Constitution Day!

Far more dangerous than Trump, I think, is how quickly the last eight months have pulled back the curtain on America's elites and shown everyone how venal, how cowardly and how utterly mediocre the foundation of our society has been.

this is incredibly true and tracks with a basic dynamic we've seen all along: the people who were cowed into submission by Trump's win were elites. regular people have never given an inch

Has authoritarian consolidation ever been accomplished so quickly, or with so little resistance?

Happy #ConstitutionDay
