Didn’t go to a single panel but did get in lots of friend time! #Gally1

Hello, Whovians! We're live (recording live? I don't know) from #LobbyCon at #Gally1! Check out our latest episode! notlg.com/podcastica/e...

People are following federal agents around DC w/the Imperial March. 😘 CHICAGO!! Will add some basic ICE melting🧊 resources below. Plz add other resources/ideas, & let’s get sub threads by city, so eg one person can start a Boston reply thread and everyone can add stuff to that thread — ? 🧵

Our communities are already being forced to live in fear. Now the Supreme Court has given ICE free rein to keep profiling people. We can’t and won’t stay silent while our rights are trampled.

The censure attempt against me has failed. Rightfully so. It was a baseless, partisan effort to shut me up. I was not elected to play political games—I was elected to serve. I won’t back down. Not now. Not ever.

It is a fact universally acknowledged that a young man in possession of a fortune must be in search of an investigative team to get ahold of the Epstein files, and I must say you all are doing great.

Just your weekend reminder that Republicans sent Congress home early instead of letting a sex trafficker’s files be released to the American people.

Federal library funding supports programs, services, and resources at libraries in every state and territory. Join me and show up #ForOurLibraries and make your voice heard. Call Congress to tell the White House to BACK AWAY from its attack on libraries: bit.ly/CallCongressForLibraries

Last chance for speak up for US library funding 🔗 to take action: linktr.ee/tomesandtext...

Read Rümeysa Öztürk’s account of her detention, it’s important

What's the best book someone has ever recommended to you?

We can still save the Institute for Museum and Library Services. Here's a practical guide to what to do right now to save not just the agency's funding but its future all together. Part of this is messaging on reauthorizing the Museum and Library Services Act. bookriot.com/we-can-still...

Keep in mind that the cuts to Medicaid don’t go into effect until late 2026 conveniently after the midterm elections. Do not be fooled. Vote these ghouls out. Show up and VOTE in the midterms.

Yes actually now is a great time to share good news Now is a great time to celebrate the good news of strangers To be the kind of people who are happy for other people to have good things happen to them Yes indeed

If you live in one of these districts, make the call today

🚨🚨TEXANS🚨🚨 It's fair to feel disempowered today, but maybe call your state reps and demand they reject this bill, which would effectively bar minors from using public libraries? A bill just like this one passed in ID and caused libraries to close to minors and has brought $$ litigation.

I cannot believe how unqualified he is for this job.

The big ugly bill cuts Medicaid & food assistance, both of which are crucial to the disability community. It drastically increases funding for the Gestapo, while also making the top 1% even richer. This should enrage people on both sides of the aisle. They’re taking Medicaid to give to kidnappers

When you get home from dinner at 9pm but haven’t watched #LoveIsland yet

Woke up thinking about last nights episode of #LoveIsland

Yes! For point 5, I'd suggest: get all ready for bed an hour earlier than usual, get in bed and READ!

Senate Republicans are rewriting portions of HR 1 the "One Big (Bullshit) Bill" to satisfy strict parliamentarian rules. And somehow, they've managed to make the bill WORSE. Call your Senators and demand they oppose this bill and its many, many harmful provisions. 🔥📞🔥 --> 5calls.org/issue/hr1-on...

Sen. Alex Padilla on the Senate floor: "If that is what the administration is willing to do to a United States senator for having the authority to simply ask a question, imagine what they'll do to any American who dares to speak up." "I pray you never have a moment like this."

NEW: Gov. Hochul announces that the state is dedicating $50 million for legal assistance for immigrants like those who may be targeted by ICE when leaving the federal courthouse

Padilla: I was forced to the ground, first on my knees and then flat on my chest. And as I was handcuffed and marched down a hallway repeatedly asking, why am I being detained? Not once did they tell me why. I pray you never have a moment like this

They’re cranking up the propaganda machine again: claiming Brad Lander “unlawfully interfered” and that ICE is just “enforcing Trump’s policy.” Reality: Lander stood up for civil rights. ICE’s conduct reflects a deeply troubling use of federal power.

There are widespread reports of ICE agents abducting people while masked, without warrants or identification. Due to recent events, we strongly advise: do not open your door or car for anyone you don’t know. That’s the message. No need to elaborate.

BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity. This is a major win for public health.

Proud to stand with my community yesterday and proud of my community for showing up. Seeing the footage from #NoKings protests across the world was inspiring and gives me so much hope. The fight isn’t over, but stay strong, keep it up, we’ll win this in the end.

This time-lapse video of protesters marching down Broadway in Oakland for No Kings Day gives an idea of how many people turned out today @sfchronicle.com

Today in Boston. Over a million people turned out. Even the drone couldn't get it all. #NoKingsDay #BostonStrong #ICEProtest

Tens of thousands came out to #NoKings San Diego. Zero arrests. The only violence is that I was stung by a bee.

“No Kings” demonstration, Ocean Beach, San Francisco

Over 4.8 million and counting and many events haven’t even kicked off yet. We’re aiming for over 10 million today to hit the 3.5% rule. The crowds are massive and still growing. We are so proud of all of you. Huge shoutout to Texas you showed up!

Do not psych yourself out of going to #NoKings Day because of scary-sounding viral content. That’s not the vibe. This is a mass demonstration designed to be big, safe, and accessible. I can't wait to see you all out there. ♡

Taking a break from the news and social media today to help keep me sane and grounded and ready for tomorrow. Find your peace today and remember that rest is a form of rebellion. Do something that brings you joy and remember what we’re fighting for. See you out there ✊

Sen. Alex Padilla, who was just forcibly removed from a DHS press conference, is the ranking member of Judiciary’s subcommittee on immigration, citizenship, and border safety, which has “oversight of federal agencies with citizenship, asylum, refugee, and immigration enforcement responsibilities.”

the salient point here is not who he is, but the fact that he did not commit any crime.

This is my senator and I’m proud of him for showing up and speaking out! We stand with you @padilla.senate.gov!! 👏🏻

The top 10% of earners in the U.S. would see the biggest gains under the GOP tax and spending package, according to congressional forecasters, but those at the bottom of the income ladder would be worse off.
