Having a hard time keeping up with things in your daily life? World outside seems upside down? No longer enjoying the same things you once did? Future feels dark and scary? You may be experiencing fascism. Fortunately, there’s a cure! #GeneralStrike #Protest #Resist #CommunityDefense #MutualAid

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

No words.

First Trump blackmailed universities into suppressing free speech. Now he’s bribing them with taxpayer dollars to enforce his agenda. Corruption and authoritarianism, plain and simple. No university should cave to this blatantly unconstitutional coercion.

Good morning. The government is shut down because Trump wants to act like a king and steal from you. Democrats have no obligation to support a budget that funds the destruction of our democracy - and DOUBLES health premiums to fund a tax cut for billionaires.

Millions of people don’t have the privilege of keeping their heads down when their rights and futures are under attack. Cultural leaders have a choice: Stand up against authoritarianism or be remembered as enablers of it. Cowardice isn’t funny. Silence helps Trump. Take action. 👇

Go, Jane, go! She's rounded up hundreds of Hollywood figures to revive the First Amendment organization her father championed. Fonda, in her late eighties, is in her prime as a climate champion and a powerful voice for justice.

Rep. @maxwellfrost.bsky.social has a message for the GOP: “You run the House, the Senate, and the White House. If you want to pass the evil bill, do it yourself.”

"We, the GOP, don’t want a shutdown, but that’s just how things go when you only control all three branches of government."

So uh this is going to be the biggest day of mass protest yet

Just gonna keep tapping the sign* *𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘋𝘦𝘤𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘐𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

Today, HUD officials posted divisive political messages on their website. There are laws in place to keep federal agencies nonpartisan. This is not just unAmerican – it’s unlawful. That’s why we’ve launched an investigation.

Ready to admit that the president has declared war on the American people yet? www.nytimes.com/live/2025/09...

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it? If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say? Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

The Trump Administration's DHS officers appear to be carrying large weapons around downtown Chicago in camouflage and masks. This is not making anybody safer — it’s a show of intimidation, instilling fear in our communities and hurting our businesses.

There are nearly 2,000 peaceful protests planned on October 18. Within days, we expect to have more protests planned in October than we did back in June. Ensuring all those events and organizers have the training, support, and resources they need is a massive undertaking. Please pitch in if you can!

There are many people yelling. This person was standing quietly with her sign. Motivation: Community care #Portlandwarzone

This is a the next step in Trump's authoritarian playbook. It has nothing to do with cracking down on political violence & everything to do with Trump using the power of govt to lock up his critics. Our country is facing a lawless president & patriots must stand united against it.

Sinclair is caving and bringing back Kimmel. Money, folks. Public pressure. They dont have the numbers. Remember this and increase the efforts.

Federal workers have already suffered more than enough… And nota bene this puts Musk at the receiving end as usual of US data which means your data.

Hell yeah, John Oliver! Comedians donning their superhero capes as we speak

I don’t think I’ve ever loved anything as much as ICE loves violently attacking women.

In six weeks, we can add another Blue State to defy Trump’s regime — right in his own backyard. Make some calls to help flip Virginia’s Governor, Lt. Governor, and Attorney General from red to blue, and expand Democrats’ majority in the House of Delegates. 👇

I've never watched a Jimmy Kimmel show in my life before this but now he's got a lifelong follower #JimmyKimmel #FreeSpeechIsWorthFightingFor

Jimmy Kimmel wasn’t reinstated because Disney executives had a change of heart. He’s back on air because those executives got a wakeup call from the American public. People all over the country showed up, canceling subscriptions, and protesting outside ABC and Disney, Nexstar, and more. 🧵

Lots of good lessons here for continued resistance. The fight is hard, but necessary #Resist #FreeSpeechIsWorthFightingFor #Disney #JimmyKimmel open.substack.com/pub/robertre...

I can't be the only one who ships these two, right? 💙 Hugs to them both from this elder millennial www.nytimes.com/2025/09/22/n...

Keep on keeping on. Helpful words from Robert Reich on what we can all do in this moment. #Resist open.substack.com/pub/robertre...

Journalists at the Pentagon now must pledge not to report anything that hasn’t been approved by Pete Hegseth. The only way to protect our rights from Trump’s regime is to exercise our rights. Join the largest peaceful protest in American history: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Law enforcement operating in California, including ICE, will be prohibited from wearing masks in the state beginning January 2026.

"Let’s put a stop to the same old partisan sniping and divisiveness about healthcare, defense, and who’s striking whom with a bulging sock full of US currency."

Mark Ruffalo on why he's joining the No Kings protests: These things are shocking to us, but they're also bringing us forward together in a way that needs to happen right now -- for a complete reimagining of our democracy. #NoKingsKickoff @markruffalo.bsky.social

Dear Executives, Please know the American people are going to turn your business upside down as soon as you bend the knee to this fascist regime. See what happened to Target? 40% loss in value and CEO fired. We’re doing that to Disney/ABC now, and you’ll be next 🙂. Sincerely, Your Customers

We won’t let Donald Trump dictate what voices the American people are allowed to hear. That’s why millions of us will join protests to defend our rights and our democracy in the largest peaceful mass mobilization in American history. Find your local event: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

"Late-night jokes shouldn’t be biting, critical, or funny. Jokes should be more like third wives — anodyne, mostly quiet, and on good terms with convicted pedophiles."

STEWART: “Comedy doesn’t change the world, but it’s a bellwether— we’re the banana peel in the coal mine… authoritarians are the threat to comedy, music, art, thought… progress.” Nailed it.

"we're going to keep showing up until they stop abducting our neighbors" brad lander is truly the best of us

It’s happening. The takedown of Jimmy Kimmel is likely the start of a campaign to use the murder of Charlie Kirk as a pretext to use the power of the White House to wipe out Trump’s critics and his political opponents. But we aren’t powerless. We can mobilize and organize. Now.

One more reason to stop buying from Amazon Authors, beware open.substack.com/pub/robertre...

Trump and his administration committed another 51 atrocities in August.

Billionaire Trump donor Elon Musk owns X. Billionaire Trump ally Jeff Bezos owns The Washington Post. With this acquisition, both CNN and CBS News would be owned by billionaire Trump donor Larry Ellison. Oligarchs’ monopoly over our media is spiraling out of control.

I have written and deleted a lot of posts but I keep thinking about how the brutal assassination of Minnesota State senator Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their beloved dog Gilbert in June did not prompt this same level of calls for empathy, sympathy, and flags at half-mast.

We love to see your Signs of Solidarity photos. Talk to local businesses about putting up signage to protect employees from ICE raids and show solidarity with immigrant communities: act.indivisible.org/signup/signs... (Thank you to @indivisiblemi7.bsky.social for the photo!)

Pete Hegseth is a disgrace to this country and our military service members. Oh well, guess I won't be able to serve in the military now. #MAGAisKillingAmerica
