Valentine’s Day nails in the age of fascism 🖤 #abolishice #ICEOUT

Newly unsealed documents confirm that the Trump regime knowingly targeted students for their free speech. Rubio and Noem worked to arrest and deport students for exercising their First Amendment rights, weaponizing legitimate concerns about antisemitism to crush dissent and amass power.

The Trump Administration was so desperate to change the fact-based narrative about Alex Pretti's execution that they dove head-first into full-on anti-2nd Amendment talking points, and I am just in awe of their stupidity as they alienate what's left of their base. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

This administration is cooked. Literally no one is scared of them.

Update: In the evidence preservation lawsuit, the current Civil Chief at the Minnesota U.S. Attorney's Office (who appears to be Ana Voss, based on the letter), refused to accept email service of the lawsuit last night and then refused to accept in-person service until Monday. Ridiculous behavior.

Let’s see how far Noem will pretzel herself when a Kyle-style armed counterprotestor shows up on the streets to “support ICE”, is mistaken by ICE as a “leftist”, and murdered. What will they call him: a good guy with a gun (MAGA) or nah (anyone else)? 🤔 #abolishICE #GoodGuyWithAGun

DA Bregman: If ICE comes in without a warrant, without reasonable suspicion, without probable cause, that is false imprisonment in New Mexico. You can’t confine, restrain, or detain someone without proper legal authority to do so. And there’s no exception for law enforcement.

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

Van Hollen: "They really think the American people are stupid. I mean, we can all see the video. We saw the video with Renee Good. We saw the video with Alex Pretti. The real domestic terrorists are in the White House right now."

The hypocrisy of gun extremists doesn’t surprise us women opposing them in hearing rooms & comment sections for years. Theirs isn’t an ideological position on a constitutional right. It’s just misogyny, racism, power, & propping up the systems of oppression. #AlexPretti #GoodGuyWithAGun #AbolishICE

This is ok tho

My congressional district (CD18) has been w/o representation for 18 months (& longer b/c of the shenanigans of the previous 2 elections). Now is the time to vote for Amanda Edwards and get the right woman on the job for Houston during the craziest period of modern history. #Vote #Houston #htx

Important PSA stolen from a friend.

BREAKING: James Rodden, an ICE prosecutor who the Observer identified last year as the operator of an X account that posted “America is a White nation," “‘Migrants’ are all criminals,” and apparent praise of Adolf Hitler, appeared to be back at work Tuesday. www.texasobserver.org/ice-prosecut...

literally the villain in every movie ever

We now have a full-blown European-American crisis, and for no reason that the president is able to articulate

This is real. This is a major turning point in American history that we’re living through together. We each have to think about how we are going to respond, what we’re able to do in our own worlds, but I would urge all the writers out there to start writing about it, in whatever way you can.

This is surreal. 4 Oglala Lakota men kidnapped by ICE in Minneapolis have finally been located. One of them was released but the other 3 are being held at Fort Snelling, a former concentration camp used to imprison Native people incl. the Dakota 38 during Dakota Wars. ictnews.org/news/north-c...

My husband was on the 2 train and a guy started braying about how Renee Good deserved to die and her "lesbian lover" did too. My husband got pissed and said, "You're absolutely disgusting." "Fuck you!" the guy said. "Fuck YOU!" my husband said. The guy left. See? We just need to talk to each other.

Near Lyndale and 24th Ave in Minneapolis tonight, feds have reportedly shot another person. Preliminary info is shaky for now, hearing two people injured. BORTAC just rolled up in an armored vehicle. A crowd is gathering outside the police tape—MPD presence as well.

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

NEW: Top DOJ officials quit after their division refused to probe Minnesota ICE shooting - At least four leaders of the Civil Rights Division resigned because the section's head, Harmeet Dhillon, decided not to investigate shooting of Renee Good. www.ms.now/news/doj-civ...

yeah I don't see how "the secret government police who are murdering unarmed people in broad daylight just need better training" is a winning message here

Here’s the thing: Visible protests don’t just remind our rush hour traffic neighbors that they aren’t alone. Those honks and 👋🏻s and 👍🏾s and ✊🏽s remind ME that I’M not alone. A few of these🖕🏼don’t f-ing scare me. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

(1) make an evergreen anti-fascism banner (2) show up with friends when you’re pissed (3) repeat step 2 ♾️

Whoa. Chicago mayor calls for a general strike; now we're talking www.huffpost.com/entry/chicag...

Thank you, Mike Johnson! No Kings Day signups have doubled since Republicans started lying about our peaceful protests. We will see you in the streets tomorrow: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond. Pay attention and act!

Thank You Jane Goodall 🐾💙🐒🦧 Curious. Brave. Persistent. Difficult. #Pinks #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory

Murmuration: we see where to go by looking to those right beside us; together, we show each other how to fly. #KeepGoing #EndGunViolence #LoveIsEverywhere

For the first time in 111 years, a President is planning to fire a sitting Fed governor—and of course, it’s the first Black woman, Lisa Cook. Trump’s message is clear: when Black women rise, he’ll do anything to push us down. Newsflash: we’re not going anywhere.

🚨NEW: With the Texas congressional map having passed in the wee hours this a.m., the first lawsuit over them has been filed. This one by the Gonzales plaintiffs. Here's the 67-page compliant: drive.google.com/file/d/1v7dG... #txlege

I promised Texas would be sued. And I don't bluff. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

👀 18K viewers waiting to see if Texas House Dem Rep Nicole Collier will continue to be falsely imprisoned and held against her will. #txlege #GregAbbott x.com/i/broadcasts...

📣 TEXANS! Texas State Rep Collier is being held hostage in the Texas Capitol unless she signs a paper (she refuses). Texas Capitol police are there to arrest her if she tries to go home. The paper says she will return to the state legislature and not break quorum. ‼️ Call/protest!

Collier: I refused to sign and so I was told that I was gonna have to stay here on the floor. They have locked the doors. The sergeants have been instructed not to allow me to leave until I have a permission slip.

Abbott said he has “bullets in his belt” for TX Dems. GVP advocates know the danger of this rhetoric. People I care about are scared for simply doing the job they were elected by me and my neighbors to do. It’s un-American. #endgunviolence #txdemocrats #txlege www.instagram.com/reel/DNbKdFp...

Governor Abbott just said he’s got “bullets in his belt” that he’s ready to use against Texas Democrats. As a prosecutor, I’ve had criminals threaten my life. I never thought I’d see the day that the Governor of Texas threatens my life. Governor Abbott, retract your statement.

You all know what to do. 🤣 @demandingliz.bsky.social‬ @akgurl-blue.bsky.social‬ @joeycade.bsky.social‬ @ramt.bsky.social‬ @margeinkeller.bsky.social‬ @tedcruzsucks.bsky.social‬ @martaelenaetx.bsky.social‬ @alphasolo.bsky.social‬ @progresstexas.bsky.social‬ @harriscodemocrats.bsky.social‬

Texas - A huge ruling to note now that the #TxLege passed its own version of the bill. 👀

Lots of red white and blue and delightful signs at the Northwest Houston suburban protest.

/4 The Trump administration will use violence here to test the waters for more violence and more authoritarianism. Watch, also, for the Trump administration to give clearer signals encouraging private violence by supporters.

Let’s be very clear: Los Angeles is the perfect place for this to play out for the Trumpists. The Trumpists hate California and hate Los Angeles and a vast amount of their base feels the same — even the Trumpists here, who wallow in hating the place they live. /1

It stalled in the Senate. Of course it did. 😭 #txlege

The TX Senate just passed a bill that relies on bigotry and nothing else to erase trans and intersex people from Texas law. Thank you @mollyfortexas for standing up for us and fighting for the truth! #txlege

Freshman Rep. Lauren Ashley Simmons hit the ground running – founding the first-ever Texas Labor Caucus and leading a bipartisan fight for working Texans. She's proof that when we organize, we win. #txlege

“If a law forces non-binary Texans, who are real people, into categories that don't reflect their lived experiences or identities … that would actually become discrimination in practice,” Menéndez said. ▪️ @texastribune.org: bit.ly/4kGd1LR 🧵 #txlege #lgbtq #transrights

Sb 12 #txlege Conference Committee report is up. We got the worst possible language: full 'Don't Say Gay' ban on LGBT "instruction, guidance, activities, or programming;" a ban on educators assisting (using correct name of?) kids socially transitioning, and a ban on LGBT student clubs. #txed

Rep. Angie Chen Button's SB 38 would allow landlords to kick tenants out on the street just 3 days after an eviction notice. Rep. Mary Gonzalez introduced an amendment to extend that time to 7 days, giving working families a chance to stay in their homes. Republicans killed the amendment. #txlege
