The battle never stops. What we're dealing with across the lake from New Orleans.

“The White House’s assault on the rule of law is so deeply disturbing to me that I feel compelled to speak out. Silence, for me, is now intolerable.”

This has not gotten much attention, but it should. Virginia under Youngkin returned to an insanely harsh system where people convicted of any felony lose their voting rights FOR LIFE. Dems' win this week mean they'll get to advance a constitutional amendment to end lifetime disenfranchisement.

Our long time activist group (20+ years) in Covington, Louisiana has secured a military field kitchen to help us provide meals to our neighbors exposed to food insecurity. We hope to launch the project no later than Nov 21st. This is a way to stand up and fight back. #FoodNotFascism

Fun election night.

This is how @buddyspell.bsky.social and I chose to scare the fascists and (easily triggered) MAGA Republicans in the back yard of our House Rep. Steve Scalise in Covington, St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana (Home of MAGA Speaker Mike Johnson and Senators Bill Cassidy and John Kennedy.)

New Disabled South @newdisabledsouth.org is offering one-time payments to disabled folks in the South who won’t be receiving SNAP in November due to the government shutdown. ndsdj.org/snaphelp

To be clear, Judge Cummings ruled that ICE agents must wear body cameras AND have them turned on AND also cannot arrest anyone complying with their appointment dates at immigration courthouses. Judge Cummings is Federal Judge for the N Dist. of IL. Every Judge nationwide should be ordering this.

@unauthorizedbeast.bsky.social It always good to go to a protest with your lawyer!

Yesterday, a federal judge ruled that Gregory Bovino and other officials can be questioned under oath over agents using chemical agents on protesters, journalists, and clergy in Chicago. A lot of ICE agents still mistakenly think that they’ll never be held accountable. They will.

Not a king, but shares a fantasy of himself in a crown pooping on voters, visitors and Veterans.

SCOTUS spent Wednesday morning trying to figure out a way to legalize racial gerrymandering. trib.al/TvPE4dc The justices appeared to single out Section 2, which (if gutted) would wipe out Black congressional representation in the South—at a scale unseen since the end of Reconstruction

I am never ever fucking EVER getting over these fuckers just driving around snatching our neighbors off the street.

Some things that are freaking Molly Jong-Fast out right now and me, too. #Louisiana

My wife, Annie, preparing for our trip to New Orleans for a No Kings warm up. Gotta tell ya, those things are hot in this subtropical climate. Anything for the Resistance.

Tonight, Thu Oct 16, weekly occurring neighborhood music festival in New Orleans 6pm at circle entrance to City Park at Esplanade. Me and my unicorn Buddy will see you there. #tnrt

Signs of Republican party discord in a deep red state: Louisiana's Republican Lt. Governor sees tourism decline in my area (Acadiana) due to Trump's anti-Canada rhetoric, and pushes back. This is a national story. Local TV covering as well. lailluminator.com/2025/10/10/c...

Mike Johnson could end the government shutdown and release the Epstein files today if he wanted to.

Good afternoon to everyone but especially Janai Nelson, president and director-counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, who argued her heart out today in an effort to stop the Supreme Court from destroying the Voting Rights Act.

It's the little things that give me gumption.

No bluesky in Mississippi, but you can screenshot this and share in other places for our Mississippi warriors 😎 Oct 18

The is literally nothing more American and patriotic than declaring: No Kings.

I love hearing from those of you who are attending library board meetings, joining your Friends of the Library boards, and running for/seeking appointment to your library boards. Holler at me especially if you also want to write something for FTP's newsletter!

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces. This is truly terrifying.

The U.S. Department of Education fired nearly everyone in the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services in a wave of new layoffs that began Friday, according to the union representing the agency's employees. www.usatoday.com/story/news/e...

No parent is ever ready to see the president of their country talk about their child’s disorder like it’s a debate topic. Watching people weaponize things like “your mom took Tylenol” or question a child’s genitalia is beyond disturbing and absolutely dehumanizing. #Pinks

Pro-democracy pop-up protest today at the Esplanade entrance to City Park in New Orleans: 6-7pm.

hope to see (and hear) some of y'all howling tonight at the cabrini bridge on the bayou!

Speaker Mike Johnson (R) doesn't really care about the people in his own Louisiana District

OPINION: "Mississippi’s white leaders haven’t done nearly enough to reckon with our white supremacist past, nor its ongoing manifestations, to expect Black folks to live as if Jim Crow never was," MFP News Editor Ashton Pittman writes.

Attn Black people, stop scrolling. This is not a drill: Chicago

Swear Adelita Grijalva (D-Ariz.) into office.

Republicans want us to believe that the Democrats, who couldn’t even raise the minimum wage when they held the House and Senate, are somehow so powerful that they can shutdown the government when they hold no power? They’re are getting bullied by Jeffries & Schumer? Please 😂

Can you be a MAGA Republican and call yourself a pro-life Catholic? The Pope's not sure. www.reuters.com/world/pope-l...

Know your enemy.

Every night at 8pm in ruby red Covington, LA my husband and I go outside and make some noise for one minute because we hate fascists. #tnrt
