Found these crocheted flowers tied up in random spots around town. They have messages of solidarity, local ice watch info, and general kind words attached. #FlowersOverFascism @hcrichardson.bsky.social @indivisible.org @maindivisible.bsky.social @50501movement.bsky.social @mass50501.bsky.social

Indivisible is organizing the “ICE Out For Good” weekend of protests this Saturday and Sunday. JFK said, "In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility — I welcome it. “

Folks we have hit capacity on tonight’s emergency response zoom but you can follow the livestream here: www.youtube.com/live/zRHkis6...

🇺🇸 MINNEAPOLIS VETERAN: "They are terrorizing the population, in Afghanistan we never wore masks.” (From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social )

I invite all Americans to join Minnesota in a day of unity tomorrow.

@tadstoermer.bsky.social's 10-minute video: how to get Congressional Dems to use available tools to stall the R's agenda, & a list of things to ask Senators to do right now. Thanks @fromthemargins.bsky.social for sharing this. @murray.senate.gov @cantwell.senate.gov www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Pwm...

Let me be very clear: tomorrow morning and EVERY DAY THIS WEEK, call your Reps and Senators whether Dem, Republican or Independent. Express your outrage at Trump’s imperial and illegal actions against sovereign nations. TELL THEM to convene. To hold up everything. Hold up $. 202-224-3121

This week, every Senator will have the opportunity to vote for or against the use of military force against Venezuela. I am voting AGAINST any war with Venezuela. Congress must rein in this corrupt and dangerous President IMMEDIATELY.

@jayapal.house.gov + Massie's bipartisan effort to end the 2001 AUMF isn't getting sufficient attention + support. The regime is using the AUMF cover for their actions. Why has Congress let a 9/11 handover over power to the president continue? It's beyond time to end it. 202-224-3121

You know what to do folks, flood the phones: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Thank you @seattletimes.com for publishing. The exclusion of nursing as a professional degree will impact the future pipeline of advanced practice nurses, educators, & future leaders. We must demand inclusion of nurses in the Dept of Education's proposed rule

Thanks @timdickinson.bsky.social and @fromthemargins.bsky.social

Terrific

It costs nothing for you to share this. For every dollar you donate to your local food pantry you’ll be providing up to 10 meals to families in need this holiday season.

"A citizens group in Ontario, California is spearheading an effort to make the community aware of incidents involving federal immigration agents. They're placing signs at the locations that read, 'ICE stole someone here'..." abc7.com/post/ontario...

In the 8 months I have been keeping a weekly list of protests, I have recorded about 30,000 protests. 30,000 in 8 months. And the number of weekly protests is growing.

Spotify is running ads to help ICE recruit more agents to infringe our rights and terrorize our communities. We’re calling on users to stop paying for or using the app until Spotify stops streaming fascism: indivisible.org/cancel-spoti...

Interesting thread. Explains a lot about what happened late Sunday night. (Thanks, @fromthemargins.bsky.social, for sharing this.)

Absolutely correct

Please don’t think this beltway game of having retiring Dem senators vote yes while everyone else votes no is going to shield leadership from the end result. We see what is happening and can’t be fooled by those games.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

FACTS about SNAP: -35% to white people (largest share) -90% to people born in 🇺🇸 -86% to households with kids -70% work full time but aren’t paid a living wage (aka corporate welfare)

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation. Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Spotify customer service is immediately ending conversations if you ask about them airing ICE advertisements on the platform. Cancel your Spotify subscription. #BoycottSpotify

If you live in: South Dakota Louisiana West Virginia Wyoming Tennessee Mississippi Alaska Call your right wing Senator and ask them why they're pushing to increase their constituents healthcare prices so much.

MASS WORLD PROTESTS THREAD:👇🧵 The Revolution Will Not Be Televised. While 90% of media (owned by 6 billionaires) were focusing on getting teachers fired for calling Kirk a nazi… there were mass protests all over the world! Did you hear about any of them? I dug up some videos:👇🧵

Alright, so I've been afraid to say this out loud, but I think after today, I can say it: In the first Battle of Los Angeles, the good people of LA County have prevailed. We beat ICE back. 1/

"Twenty-three Democratic attorneys general now gather on near-daily Zoom calls at 8 AM Pacific, which means the East Coast officials are already on their third coffee. They divide responsibilities and share templates for lawsuits they’ve been drafting since last spring."

Inspired by the classic Only Fools and Horses chandelier sketch but beneath the laughter, there’s something sharper. A poem on class, spectacle, and the chains that hold it all up (for now) #PoemsAbout #Chandeliers @alanparrywriter.co.uk @thebrokenspine.co.uk

I’ve seen so many people spreading the misinformation that PBS is shut down or is shutting down. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has been shut down and PBS has been defunded. HOWEVER!!! PBS still exists. It is more important now than ever that you donate to PBS if you can.

If pundits would like to talk about violence, a terrorist recently shot up the CDC and another assassinated Democratic officials in Minnesota but they sort of let both stories disappear Not as threatening as motorbikes in DC I know but maybe we could circle back?

Stephen Miller tried to claim only real "Americans" built the Empire State Building, but he left out the true stories of the Indigenous ironworkers who actually did. The Mohawk Skywalkers helped shape America's skylines—and shatter the lie behind Miller’s whitewashed nostalgia.

RFK Jr. backs down all the time when he gets push back, so if anyone wants to call, here's the HHS number 1-877-696-6775. I'd also call your senators/reps as well.
