ICE raided a James Beard award winning restaurant & because the chef/owner was prepared, left emptyhanded:

A Democrat who was elected sheriff in Pennsylvania this month hopes others are watching: “It sends a message to elected public safety officials across the country that partnering with ICE is a loser in a district that’s remotely a swing district.”

This is a concentration camp. Call it what it is. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/29/u...

Yet again i want to remind everyone that Bill Gates and several other billionaires have invested in mining projects in Greenland that are only accessible because of melted land and sea ice, he and other billionaires are essentially shorting the planet

They are not planning "a violent crackdown" on 10.18. What they are doing is sending a signal to their shock troops to try to cause havoc. But those shock troops will be vastly outnumbered. Go out and protest freely. Do not be cowed.

He wants X thing so he gets X thing is not a given. And to me that's the thing to uproot from people's consciousness. Because we're less than a year in and many people seem already defeated.

I mean yes this is funny, but the fact that these unconstitutional stormtroopers are so directionless that they literally stand around waiting for random nonwhite delivery guys to bike past them is just pathetic. No mandate, no mission, no clue. Just racism.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

This is EXCELLENT. 1) this is spot-on analysis of the problem & a great immediate 1st thing a city can do to improve outcome. 2) as a 2 min clip? He's giving history, hope & change. Speaking to women, to Jewish & Black NYers, saying "abortion." & also naming eugenics in feminism. 100/10 no notes.

We should not care or reward Disney for this. We must make their bottom line hurt for even considering doing something like this. Don't let up. Other companies need to see that bowing to fascism is not something you can do without consequence.

A few people had questions of some of the states on my map such as NY/CA/IL moving up in risk for trans youth. If a state has moved up in risk, it's because of clinic closures at major clinics. I cannot in good faith keep a state low risk if state laws are not being enforced to keep clinics open.

Trump’s federal takeover shakes D.C. communities – Fed agents + National Guard troops have flooded D.C. under Trump’s false “crime crackdown”—setting up checkpoints across the city. 🔗 Read more here: apnews.com/article/dona...

As I wrote earlier this week: "We must also remember that a real surge in crime would not excuse acts of authoritarian consolidation. We must be wary of logics that suggest Trump’s authoritarian maneuvers might be reasonable, if he were more accurately describing conditions on the ground."

NYC Folks, Megan has gifted us with another zine. I distributed over 500 copies of their NYC primary guide zine and so many people were grateful to have it. I am going to print 1000 copies of this to distribute.

Jonathan Joss was MURDERED. Words matter here. He was MURDERED. it was a HATE CRIME because he is a gay Indigenous man. Say those words. Do not dance around it. He wasn't "killed in a shooting." He was murdered in a hate crime.

A new report shows how little has changed for Black victims of police killings five years after George Floyd's murder www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
