They want you to stop fighting back. They want you to silence yourself. They want you to ignore injustice. They want you to blame others. They want you to lose hope. They want you to be afraid. They want you to give up. They want you to obey. Don't.

Literally the most humanizing photo I've seen of any of these assholes. Most normal parents would have this framed on a bookshelf or mailed out as holiday cards. But she had ICE deport her nephew's Mom so I guess she's built different.

Zelenskyy offers Ukraine’s help to unblock Hormuz
Kyiv defeated Russia in the Black Sea from 2023-2024 — and is offering to do the same with Iran in the Persian Gulf.

There's a tendency in American politics for every elected to get squeezed into the "relatable everyday joe you can have a beer with" type and not everyone can pull it off and if you were say, Al Gore, maybe you would've been better off leaning into what a smart nerd you are.

There are lots of criticisms one could make of the Trump kids, but you can't take anything away from them in terms of how authentic and comfortable they are in the out of doors.

People should take notice of what's happening in Rogers Park in Chicago right now. The right-wing media machine has zeroed in on the 40th Ward's Black queer alderman in the aftermath of a shooting, vilifying her description of the victim being in the "wrong place at the wrong time" as victim-blaming

What this shows is that a staggering 63%(!) of people arrested by ICE in Minnesota during Operation Metro Surge (from December through February) had no criminal record at all.

Even if we take the low count of 8 million this is over 2.3% of the US population, in a non-emergency scenario, and before the pain really hits. We can be basically certain that 3.5% of the US population will be able and willing to take to the streets in an actual governmental legitimacy crisis.

A lot of people have been kinda befuddled by the phenomenon of "every white pro baseball player is a Republican" but it makes sense once you understand "your parents are rich enough to think spending $25k/year and countless hours on travel baseball seems reasonable" is the filter for participation

There are scheming advisors and desperate public servants making plans, of course. And these plans will be randomly adopted and discarded as Trump and Hegseth find it momentarily convenient. This is going to devolve into the military running this shit on autopilot with minimal civilian input.

Not wanting a king in America is one of the most foundational, patriotic, and non-partisan ideals in this country. This is not about left versus right. It’s about whether we want to be ruled by a king or dictator, and we do not. ❌👑 📍NO KINGS CHANDLER, AZ

The regime wants us terrified; instead, we are organizing. The work now is to channel the energy from
#NoKings
into hyper localized organizing. Meet your neighbors if it’s safe to do so, and start a group chat on Signal. It’s up to all of us. Solidarity.

The dismissiveness to No Kings in contrast to the Tea Party coverage, is predictable. America thinks it's normal for lefties and civil rights groups to protest and to the extent that they care its through the lens of a looted store or burning car. Right Wingers protesting? Stop the presses!
