if you have ICE on your resume expect to never get another job again ever In fact, you should just plan on spending the rest of your life in prison.

NEW: A coalition of pro-voting groups sues Indiana over two new anti-voting laws that mandate documentary proof of citizenship for certain people. The group argues the laws unfairly target naturalized citizens and threaten to remove eligible voters from the rolls.

Now ICE is shooting law enforcement bsky.app/profile/chad...

They said ICE would go after criminals. They are arresting cops.

Every rapid response chat I’m on is going berserk — forty ice agents indiscriminately capturing people if you can get down to Canal right now, please go!

The best time to abolish ICE would have been in 2021. The next best time is if we win in 2028. At this point, any Democrat unwilling to abolish ICE must be drummed out of the primary.

If one of your Senators is one of the four (Thune, Scott, Lankford, and Johnson) who has come out v Ingrassia for his Nazi views, you might call and ask when they're going to call out Stephen Miller, who is also a white nationalist, but who also serves as a gatekeeper to what Trump thinks is true.

CHICAGO: “They took my son. He’s only 16. I just want my baby back.”

This is very very very very, very very little work for people who make more than $100,000 and have staffs of more than three people.

When you see who is complicit, you understand how successful the effort has been to bury the story.

The kids are not alright. Longitudinal research shows that rates of mental health distress among LGBTQ+ youth have increased since 2023, that they're less able to access mental health care, and that nearly 1/4 have been threatened with conversion therapy. www.latimes.com/science/stor...

I have had the most Michelle Duggar-looking elderly rural Montanans be completely normal to me about being trans, “why are people being so goddamn weird about it” is an underrated winning message

NBC just gutted the very teams that gave marginalized voices a seat at the table—then called it “restructuring.” The cuts: 📌NBC BLK (Black community coverage) 📌NBC Latino (Latino community coverage) 📌NBC Asian America (Asian American community coverage) 📌NBC Out (LGBTQ+ community coverage)

The Nuclear Block is The Thing that makes Bluesky shine. Use it.

“There was an elite conspiracy to abuse children” is so horrific a reality that I think the media has had a hard time grasping it.

I think we can lay the groundwork to win this. @hammerandhope.bsky.social ran an interview with the folks who won Build Public Renewables in New York, lessons there worth checking out hammerandhope.org/article/clim...

Videos, photos and reflections on the 7 million patriots who protested, marched and rallied yesterday. It was a big, inspiring and powerful day. Our next big day is November 4th. Let's make it just as powerful. My latest 👇 www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/7-million-...

Some folks were worried that they'd sic thugs on the protestors or declare martial law. Instead they posted AI videos and complained. These people have no juice. Their supporters are cowards. They are are all bark and no bite. They collapse when we push back. Remember that.

JUST IN: Israeli officials halt the entry of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip and ramp up military strikes after accusing Hamas of violating ceasefire. Israeli officials are pushing for military operations to resume “in full force.”

This story is extraordinary even by 2025 standards. Marco Rubio, the nation's top diplomat, made a deal with Bukele and agreed to renege on informant agreements in a years-long DOJ investigation into MS-13, totally undercutting credibility of such agreements. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

The world joined us and said, “No Kings.”

like this is vicious. they waited for the grandmas to go home so they could do this.

Don’t take the bait, don’t share the sh*t. He’s playing y’all & getting you to stop talking about huge No Kings turnout today.

Crazy nyc protest size video I saw on Reddit www.reddit.com/r/nyc/commen...

And San Diego PD did the same.

Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) at the Boston No Kings rally today, wore the trans pride flag like a scarf draped over his shoulders and included in his speech. "Because here in Massachusetts, we stand for what is right. We stand with trans people because trans rights are human rights."

I found this a really illuminating thread on what demonstrations do and why they matter.

Folks are asking what to do about the One Special Boy's AI vids and whether they should share them: MOCK THEM WITHOUT SHARING. This creates what an enthymeme, where readers have to SUPPLY PART OF THE REFERENT to understand what you are mocking. An enthymeme is the STRONGEST form of persuasion.

Notably: every single rally (including in the small towns) was bigger than the surrounding police force available. That kind of image event is VERY IMPORTANT if you're, I dunno, demonstrating social coherence AGAINST a fascist government and it's makeshift gestapo.

It doesn’t make more aggressive forms of protest and resistance less effective. It makes them more effective. It can raise public tolerance for protest, introduces new people to acts of resistance, and lay the groundwork for larger networks of solidarity.

There are too many of us to ignore. #NoKings

the crowd sizes are obviously the highlight here but the fact that *this* is the public statement of the NYPD does not bode well for the regime. or, put another way: I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

Just arrived on the scene at Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in South Portland. Here less than 10 minutes when agents charged out of the facility and used a pale yellow gas that caused tears and coughing in crowd members. Also shot munitions at those retreating.

Can report back from the Charlotte No Kings that "free Palestine" is now, if not the normie lib position, then at least fully accepted among the normie libs. Lots of signs and flags scattered about, no apparent drama at all.

In the same way that union members confront a bad boss, the way to stop an authoritarian takeover is with continued, escalating collective action, write veteran labor organizers Peter Olney and Rand Wilson: labornotes.org/2025/10/view...

To quote @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social, I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

An astonishingly large crowd! Chicago
