Armed Trump administration agents wearing masks just showed up outside of Gavin Newsom’s press conference. This is what rising fascism looks like.

I'm not surprised that it was all campaign bluster. Trump is full of shit, but I do feel bad for anyone who voted thinking he was going to make their challenging and traumatic family building journey more affordable or easier in any way.

Chat, is cancer research woke? The Trump administration seems to think so, having erased hundreds of millions of dollars being used for cancer research in a move that seems to be part of its anti-DEI, anti-trans, and anti-vaccine agendas.

The deportation of Luis Leon, a retired man who had lived legally in the U.S. for nearly 40 years, is the latest example of the Trump administration taking immigration enforcement too far.

George Retes, a 25-year-old Army veteran and father of two, had been planning his three-year-old daughter’s Minnie Mouse birthday party at the park for weeks. Those plans fell apart last week when Retes – a US citizen – was detained by federal immigration agents. cnn.it/3GUP3hB

ICE is the American Gestapo. And this absurd display of terrorism in Los Angeles is meant to incite fear in our communities. But the people aren’t having it. We are pushing back every chance we can—showing these fascists we will not bend, we will not break, we will stand in defiance, together.
