Three rules in FBI firearm training: 1. Always point your weapon downrange 2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot 3. Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you don’t like

Man exercising 1st and 2nd amendment rights, not threatening anyone, is tackled and disarmed by ICE, then murdered in cold blood. This is what I'm hearing from all credible sources.

@booker.senate.gov why do you want to give ICE more money?? WTF is wrong with you? More money to terrorize and murder Americans? More money to lie about their actions when there is clear video showing who and what they are? Bodycams are meaningless to them. Defund ICE!

@lizzy2016.bsky.social thanks for the add! 💙😺🥳

The atrocities continue. Thank you to National Nurses United for speaking out. www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/nurses...

I just read that there were nurses on a picket line nearby who, upon hearing about what happened, immediately left the picket line and ran to help first responders. In this screwed up country that stresses me out each and every day, these nurses are a shining example of humanity. Nurses rock.

324 mass shootings this year and we don't have the will to stop it. When will we accept that we are no better than savages hell-bent on destruction of ourselves and our planet? We suck. www.cnn.com/us/live-news...

I have about zero reach, but resharing anyway.

The Kansas Republicans' message of hope and love as posted on Facebook for Mother's Day. The delusion is strong with this bunch.

If Jeff Bezos can send Katy Perry to space, he can damn well keep her there. AND pay a wealth tax. That is all.

He has neither honor nor responsibility. But he does have a rap sheet and a bottle of whiskey in a paper bag in his desk drawer.

The next blue wave needs to wash these losers out to sea. Primary them!

It's exhausting being a cat.

No need to insult rectal thermometers. At least they serve a useful purpose.

Darren Beattie, white nationalist who said, "competent white men must be in charge," has been appointed undersecretary of state for public diplomacy. And yet, this is barely a 1 out of 10 on the "shocking crap that's happening right now scale." Unfuckingbelievable.

In celebration of my 10th Nurses Pack, I have my biggest one yet. 100 strong! I will continue to make these as I meet more Nurses. Please let me know if you or someone you know would like to be included in a future pack! #nursesky #nurse #lpn #rn #bsn #msn #np #crna #dnp go.bsky.app/BMfqW87

What is he going to call this American concentration camp?

If you're in Illinois, you're on Section 8, and your landlord tries to evict you because of the government funding freeze, email me at [email protected]. My cases are pay-whatever-you-can.

No matter how crazy things get in the world, cats are my happy place.

It's #Caturday and Nellie is working on her weekend chill. Anyone else have a cat who's chilling out?

Today's important reminder: Democracy may be in disarray, but Nellie's cow spots are still the cutest.

We are not overreacting to what is happening. If anything, we are underreacting. Connecting with each other is something we can do. I left some good people out for now. You can help me by liking, commenting and/or repost and I'll add you to tomorrow's pack. go.bsky.app/uMTV4C

Today Trump’s thugs detained US citizens without a warrant, including a military veteran.

Hey, do you identify as a feminist? If so would you like to be included in my most recent starter pack? 💙 go.bsky.app/8LUUY1P

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

RIP, President Carter. You said you didn't want to see another Trump presidency. You deserved to go peacefully before it commenced. www.cartercenter.org/news/pr/2024...

NFA is proud to issue this press release! Our letter opposing RFK Jr.’s nomination surpassed 1000 signatures from nurses & supporters across the country. Let’s keep it up! The voices of nurses will not be silent when it comes to advocating for the health of patients & communities!
