So happy to see #Nokings photos from across #Idaho!

Several Idaho Sheriffs have issued veiled threats for tomorrow’s protests. It looks like they’re chomping at the bit to exploit these protests, which have been peaceful all year, into an excuse to use force against Idahoans. Know your rights.

Hey all, Tuesday Night hangout in the @progressiveidaho.com discord tonight at 7 p.m. Nothing on the agenda, just hanging out an chatting. Come join us.

Excellent work y'all.

Show up at City Hall today by 5:30pm to support Boise in passing a resolution to make the Pride Flag an official flag for the City of Boise. Where your best Pride swag to show your support! #idaho #cityofboise

I test all of the scripts I write for voter to voter outreach at the grocery store. “Billionaires should pay their fair share” is not as effective as, “We need to stop picking up the employee grocery & healthcare tab for 902 stingy billionaires” What do the different responses look like? #idpol

There’s a conversation I think we need to have on the left flank about how more moderate voices are silenced by further left voices. I say this as someone whose personal views are quite far left. Even I don’t speak up sometimes for fear of judgement. I think discussions about cancel culture are

Come hang out with us for our Tuesday Night Fireside Chat in our discord server. Invite 👇 discord.gg/ZDZGZYUW?eve...

If you're wanting to follow the real-time blue sky buzz about #Bernie and #AOC in #Idaho might I suggest that the Idaho *Live* feed has you covered. Link here: blueskyidaho.com

This is real real bad.

With warm and sunny weather starting to make an appearance, we are changing our weekly hangouts to be every other Tuesday. This week is a skip week, but we'd love to have you join us next Tuesday. discord.gg/w9y6uG96?eve...

No retreat. No surrender. @peachylamma.bsky.social was the wrong force of nature to fuck with.

Lots of protests this weekend, all around the state. Including *checks notes* Salmon?!

Do us a favor and try not to spicy post in our replies please! While we can understand that you're not serious, and maybe even appreciate the joke, we've recently spotted replies to our posts in far right social media trying to incite violence. Don't post to us what could be used by them, thanks!

Reports we are hearing (from PI folks who were there) are that the Tesla protest went off with zero violence or issues. There were armed counter protesters and a Hitler cosplayer... But zero physical violence. Thanks to all the protestors who helped keep it that way.

My group, Stronger Together, met tonight. I am always shocked how much better I feel afterward. I’m an introvert, so, historically, this would not be helpful to me. We ate casserole & chocolate & talked through the events of the last 2 weeks. Build community with your friends & neighbors.

My friend Andrea Marcoccio will be speaking at Treefort this Saturday about the work we’ve done in the panhandle and beyond to keep our communities safe under regular armed counter protests. I’m so proud of her. Especially the culmination of work she’s gathered for another project with WSC. 😭🤯

The Telsa protest organizer just met with one of the best. Everything I hear is positive, and now they have a voice of experience to consult. I posted my full thoughts about the false flag bullshit on our Discord #Idaho #Resist

Details about this homegrown (alleged) terrorist are sparse but LCRW was the first outlet to take Terrorgram and their local leader, Boise's Matthew Allison, seriously. Before today, this was the only examination of Allison available at all. Today's work largely echoes it.

Other groups are now calling this a false flag. Thus far the proof I've see for that is screenshots of the social media rumor mill doing it's thing. I see no *actual* evidence, quite the opposite. I don't think it's a smart protest, but saying it's a false flag without evidence is also dangerous.

*Tuesday Night* Tuesday night at 7 pm (Mountain) we have our weekly-ish informal and very casual hangout in the #Progressive #Idaho Discord voice channel. No agenda for these, just a chance to chat (voice only) with a small group of other humans for a bit. invite: discord.gg/ntdMDJpu?eve...

There's a LOT of conversation about the Telsa protest on Saturday in Meridian. Many activists and organizers are trying to get to the bottom of the event. I've talked with a lot of folks and here's my take:

Protests are striking a nerve... So much so that Dorothy Moon took time out of her busy life to write some words of encouragement -- and this absolutely should encourage you. #resist #idaho www.idahopress.com/apgstate/opi...

BABE VOTE stands with Sarah Inama, who is courageously standing up for her students. #idpol Watch: m.youtube.com/watch?v=Jv18... Contact www.westada.org/o/wasd/page/...

This is an anti-freedom, criminal government. “The FBI is moving to criminalize groups like Habitat for Humanity for receiving grants from the Environmental Protection Agency under the Biden administration.” YOU MUST MAKE PROTESTING THIS GOVERNMENT PRIORITY #1 newrepublic.com/post/192660/...

ACTION ALERT: contact the House Education Committee and urge them to vote NO on HB 382, which would collect immigration status of K-12 students, because apparently even minors need to be subject to the surveillance state. Register your view here: legislature.idaho.gov/events/25031...

West Ada School District memo sent out to staff today. I'd be alarmed as a parent knowing a poster saying "everyone is welcome here" isn't considered motivational by my child's school. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't be leaving the school district until they explained how it wasn't motivational.

This was probably the wildest thing I’ve seen happen in that building.

Someone on the @progressiveidaho.com discord recently said "On my good days I'm a furious, radicalized leftist. On not so good days, I want to crawl into a hole and never come out. That's why I'm here" It's been a want-to-crawl-in-a-hole week for me, bit better today (see sleep post) but still...

Republicans in Idaho. Hear me loud and clear. If you don’t like schools, what you’re really saying is you don’t like republican Ed policy. If you don’t like our Idaho tax system, you don’t like republican tax policy. The list of complaints from republicans about republican policy is long. #idpol

"Build community and do mutual aid" sounds great, but how? @millennialleia.bsky.social shares her blueprint for creating a support network that offers both practical help and emotional connection during uncertain times. #Idaho #Resist progressiveidaho.com/blueprint-fo...

In this week's newsletter, an Idahoan shares her practical blueprint for building #community in uncertain times. Sign-up now so you don't miss it: progressiveidaho.com/connect/#/po... #Idaho #resist

If you're on Facebook, can you do me a favor? After listening to the community @progressiveidaho.com decided we need a presence on FB to connect people who are *only* on FB. so... we're there now 🤷‍♂️ Your like & follow would really help us reach those folks #idaho www.facebook.com/ProgressiveI...

In the interest of safety, especially that of our at-risk communities, we will not be promoting #Idaho events/protests unless we have an indication of who is organizing it or contact info. Seeing way too many flyers with a time & place, nothing else. I can't stress how much of a risk this is...

In a similar vein, I also do have *some* actions people can take if they want. :) If people want to do something in Idaho specifically, join us in @progressiveidaho.com's Discord server. :) I also lend support to people through varios actions (calling, testifying) through body-doubling.

We had an amazing impromptu hangout last night in the Progressive #Idaho discord. Yes, it was a nice distraction from the speech, but it ended up being way more than that. progressiveidaho.com/hiatus-to-ho...

There is something deeply wrong with elected officials avoiding contact with constituents. Almost as though they are working for someone else. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

NEW: The Department of Justice says it will no longer fight to protect the right of pregnant people to emergency abortion care. While a judge has temporarily blocked Idaho’s ban on such care, patients’ lives could still be at risk because of the Trump administration's actions.

With regards to tonight's Nazi speech, we encourage you to watch, or not, based on your mental health needs. Also, don't assume someone skipping it is uninformed or burying their head in the sand. It's 2025, we have the technology to watch later. We also have excellent journalists...

The Editorial Board: We wanted to make sure they got the memo.

Awesome!!!

Y'all are out here cheering, while Trump and Elon pick your pockets, as long as they tell you it will hurt someone else too. The hate and greed of 33% of this country will be the end of this nation.

Gonna share the info I get about the women's march in Twin Falls this weekend at this hangout. Come join us!
