They are pushing a burning dumpster towards the cops

A gang of ICE agents executed a man in broad daylight in Minneapolis today. No other way to put it. No excuse. It was a public execution by a gang of government agents.

Central Florida friends, come out on Friday night for an author’s discussion with my friend Nico Lang! “American Teenager” is a must read! 🏳️‍⚧️ 1/16/26 @ 6:30PM Joy MCC 2351 S. Ferncreek Ave Orlando, FL

Hey fuck you Amy

~news~: this week I started at The Guardian US @us.theguardian.com as Movement Building reporter, continuing my coverage of protest, repression and resistance against war, LGBTQ rights, policing, labor, and more under Trump. organizers, advocates—send me your stories! I’m on Signal lex.mcmenamin.68

Elon Musk's Grok chatbot is on an undressing spree, creating sexual deepfakes of women and kids. Musk's response? To blame users and post laughing emojis. HELL NO app.sosha.ai/s/65HkX8dp

Who is Randy Fine and where did he come from? Spoke with folks on all sides of the aisle, a school board official he called a “whore,” a construction contractor who felt compelled to primary him, a classmate from his time causing ruckus in Harvard student government, and more to find out.

Thank you so much Orlando Pride, it was an honor to serve as a Grand Marshal and spend a beautiful day celebrating our queer and trans joy and resistance 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Rest in power Miss Major, I am so lucky I ever shared space with such a legend 🏳️‍⚧️

As has been made clear before, the claim that everyone at Alligator Alcatraz has final orders of removals is just a straight up lie, point blank.

Actual Facebook post by the DHS made on the same day Trump says the Feds are taking over DC. Totally not Nazi propaganda.

Behold the private citizen turned Heritage Foundation martyr: Kim Davis. Four marriages. One jail stint. Hundreds of thousands owed for trampling rights. Out of office since 2019, still clawing to void your marriage — a trailer-park tyrant with a cross and a grudge.

I'm no consultant, but I think it's a losing strategy for Dems to appeal to the "reasonable concerns" of voters who can be won over with this kind of gutter level transphobia and homophobia.

And the Dems are caving like the spineless cowards they are. You will never appease fascists.

A video arguing that women shouldn’t be able to vote was just shared by Trump’s Secretary of Defense, the guy in charge of our whole military. And Democratic Party leaders still can’t stand up to this administration?! Our rights are on the line and all our party leaders offer us is silence.

It wasn’t that long ago that Florida was chiefly known for 2 things: 1. the place of choice for retired folk, and 2. one of the favourite, possibly biggest tourist destination in the U.S. Now…it’s all about shackles, misery and inhumane treatment. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Join us on Saturday for this important event!!

We are doing this. Our governments. Our taxes. Our arms sales. This is our Holocaust. Our Cambodian killing fields. Our Balkans. Our Rwandan genocide. We are doing this and history will never forgive us. Gaza:

almost all of this comes from tactics honed in repro, but having watched this stuff develop and metastasize in state legislatures i'm convinced that this particular genre of inverted policyfucking is directly downstream of specifically sb8's legally inexplicable success

School starts soon in Florida & we’ve somehow found a commissioner of education who is more repugnant than the previous one. Would like to point out that all of these ppl can fuck themselves in the most acrobatic way possible bc my LGBTQ kids will continue to live & thrive under your cruelty 🖕

🚨ACTION ALERT Sayfollah Musallet was tragically *beaten to death* by *illegal* Israeli settlers in the West Bank on 7/11/25. In moments like these, silence is unacceptable. Click to call on ALL Florida officials to publicly denounce this murder & stand in solidarity with the Muslim community.

1. Earlier this year, Trump erased transgender people from the Stonewall National Monument webpage, digitally burning the history we helped create. Now, he's doing the same to bisexual people. No marginalized group will be safe from the admin's moving targets. Subscribe to support our journalism.

We live in a nation where I am now sending out alerts about what the U.S. attorney general is doing in our name. It’s a lot to sit with. It’s going to get a lot darker before it starts getting lighter, but I will keep doing what I do. And, it will get lighter again.

Genuine question: what ideas do people have for real theories of change to fight surveillance in this moment. Like, it's not like you can run a "tell Palantir to stop being Palantir" campaign or a "Tell ICE to stop being fucking fascists" campaign. What is actionable, winnable? Where do we focus?

The free state of Florida was planning to remove our rainbow crosswalks before the Trump admin even sent the letters out. This FDOT memo is dated 6/30 (they are obsessed with pulling shit like this during Pride Month). The Trump administration didn’t send its letters to all 50 govs til 7/1.

If you consider the existence of trans people in this country more threatening than the existence of concentration camps in this country, then your understanding of both history and humanity is fundamentally flawed.

When cis people say they need a "civil discussion" around "trans issues," what they really mean is they want a discussion amongst themselves about how quickly they can get rid of us, over tea, preferably before the rush-hour traffic.

We will never be silent. The Trump administration has placed 139 EPA staffers on leave after they signed a letter of dissent opposing the agency’s current direction and policies. Silencing experts won’t silence the truth.

To anyone in the Dem campaign world who happens to come across this: if you're asking people for money today, it should be to help people who will be impacted by the budget, not to help you.

With the @upenn.edu cave, among many others, I am reminded once again (daily) that those with the most resources and capacity are often also the biggest cowards, leaving the rest of us to fight their battles for them.

If you live in Monroe County, FL the state will give your k-3 student $11,950/yr to attend a private school. If you have a learning disabled kid in any county in k-5 the state will NO LONGER give you $1200/yr to access supplemental support. Pizzo voted to cut this. Remember that when he runs.

if we're 3% of the US, and if (pulling a number out my ass) 3% of us are activists, and if HALF of us are "aggressive," and if we ignore the obvious power and resource disparities, they still expect you to believe they've been bullied into submission by less than 1/20th of 1% of the population.

“Land of the free,” eh?

The majority of House Dems don’t bother going to Equality Caucus meetings that help refine talking points on things like trans issues. The Dems are just begging us to hate them at this point.

#TransMarch at St. Pete Pride yesterday was amazing! Beautiful day spent with some of the people I love the most 🏳️‍⚧️ #ProudAndFree #TransRightsNow #ProtectTransKids Considering supporting a FL trans inclusive school here ⤵️ gofund.me/08503738

We’ll see you tomorrow Kissimmee to wish this jerk the most unhappiest of birthdays!! #MuskMustFall #TeslaTakedown @teslatakedown.com @dissentpins.bsky.social

This is how speakers against police-ICE collaboration at the Miami-Dade County Commission meeting were treated this morning.
