“With your patient and rigorous work, you can act as a barrier against those who, through the ancient art of lying, seek to create divisions in order to rule by dividing,” he said. “You can be a bulwark of civility against the quicksand of approximation and post-truth...” apnews.com/article/pope...

It really feels like they’re trolling our autocrat.

All to cover up the Epstein files.

There is nothing an authoritarian fears more than peaceful, organized people power. That’s why the White House is now turning its sights on us. 🧵

Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

Trump is rigging the elections and we can stop him. Vote yes on prop 50 TODAY!

There are a lot of peaceful ways to out-smart someone who is just following a script. Just don't follow the script. #thinkoutsidethebox

They still haven’t found all the missing children from the floods. Why are they more worried about Illinois than about the children in Texas?

You know what I found most interesting about this video? How many times that one dude let go of his victim to make sure his mask didn't slip down. I approve of the fact that we have made him worry more about being identified than he worries about successfully grabbing people.

Texas proudly invading Illinois. It’s hard to describe the level of potential constitutional crisis here.

This is an important interview. A couple stopped and profiled by border patrol comes to a realization: who they voted for lied to them. It takes courage to admit it, and more to go public. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

If you’re apprehensive that what you say or do now could come to haunt you in a more authoritarian environment in the future then this is your absolute cue that you absolutely must say or do something now.

On Signal you say... @muellershewrote.com

The end of due process for immigrants is the end of due process for citizens. Few understand this.

“In my experience, the more you tighten your grip, the more cities will slip through your fingers.” Hold the line, stay nonviolent, document everything, and rally allies. Authoritarians want a spectacle—don’t give it to them. Oregon belongs to its people, not an occupying force.

Fox News's Chad Pergram: “How can you say that they take no pleasure in this and then in the next minute say, ‘Oh, they're just having fun trolling people?’”

Federal agents reporting to Secretary Noem have spent weeks snatching up families, scaring law-abiding residents, violating due process rights, and even detaining U.S. citizens. They fail to focus on violent criminals and instead create panic in our communities.

We're out here at the Federal Courthouse with Portland's DSA City councilors to say no to the militarization of Portland!

Breaking on MSNBC: An FBI agent in the Washington field office has been fired for refusing to arrest and perp walk James Comey. This news was first reported by Reuters.

Fired for displaying a pride flag, followed by a citation of the Constitution.

Release the jobs report. And while you’re at it, release the Epstein files.

So Speaker Johnson gave the congress another week off. Paid of course, while they shut the govt down. The GOP has made it clear they have no interest in compromise with Dems. So they will have to figure how to reopen their govt that they closed. And they get another vacation

The Treasury Department is developing a one-dollar commemorative coin, bearing the image of President Trump, for the nation’s 250th birthday. But it’s not clear that a coin could legally feature an image of Trump; an 1866 act established that only deceased people could appear on U.S. currency.

BREAKING: A federal judge finds that there is evidence Kilmar Abrego was VINDICTIVELY PROSECUTED. The judge GRANTS Abrego's motion for discovery and a hearing, and the government must now PROVE it did not vindictively prosecute Mr. Abrego. 1/
