🚨"If you support Donald Trump, never invoke the constitution—you don't give a f*ck about it, never invoke states rights, you don't give a f*ck about them, you don't care about tyranny...you have no principles," -Minneapolis ICE protester in -1 degree wind chill. LIVE NOW ⬇️

Funding this administration is treason

Does anyone have connections to an IMMEDIATE, safe place to stay starting TUESDAY, June 20, ideally as long as possible. I'm unhoused and have limited funds.The perhaps catch tho is I have 2 cats. (One is an ESA) Anywhere in MA helps, even though one of my disabilities doesn't allow me to drive.

I can't trust politicians who are anti-trans. Not because I'm "only searching for perfection" which is what centrists will be accusing me of for the rest of my life, it's because if you're not pro-trans you'll be garbage on lots of other issues too. Being anti-trans NEVER exists in a vacuum.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

Blanket bans on trans youth in sports have never been about fairness or science or protecting girls' sports. They are entirely about alleviating the discomfort of bigots who don't want trans youth on sports teams or anywhere else in the public square. That's all they are.

2026’s refresh rate is wild I go do some chores and like 14 major world events have happened

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power - file impeachment articles every day in the House - withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee - be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

ICE is a domestic terrorist organization that has invaded our cities, assaulted immigrants & thrown our neighbors into concentration camps. ICE executed Renee Nicole Good in broad daylight. Any legislator who doesn’t immediately move to abolish ICE is a traitor who sold out their country to fascism

abolish ice is the moderate position to be honest. whichever candidate promises to nuremberg the ice agents has my vote at this point

Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.

When it comes to politics, it's always better to fight and lose than to simply acquiesce.

“it’s reasonable to ask questions about trans girls in sports” was always intended to mainstream transphobia. It’s absurd that people fell for it. Democrats are constantly letting oppressors set the terms of debate instead of just saying “no, fuck you.”

and no, transgender rights are not a "distraction" THEY ARE THE FIGHT THEY ARE ALL THE FUCKING FIGHT

Ditto. The bar is laying on the ground when we say supporting trans rights is crucial to our vote. And yet too many trip.

Fuck you of you think trans rights should be sacrificed "for the good of democracy". The anti democracy machine is the anti-trans machine. Get that through your skulls.

Evergreen post. I think this every day.

You're high off the No Kings demonstration but don't know what to do next? Decolonize your mind. Practice active anti-racism. Talk to your friends about how you can commit concrete acts that dismantle white supremacy. Think about how you interact with Black people. Unpack your internal biases.

I really need people to understand that refusing to seat fascists is an antifascist act that protects democracy & is not the same as fascists refusing to seat antifascists to destroy democracy—in the same way that finding a guilty person guilty isn't the same as finding an innocent person guilty.

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

Transgender Ideology: “Please let me live in peace.” Antifascist Ideology: “Fascism is bad, okay?” Seems uncomplicated, but they still muddy it all up with hate and fear.

His last official words were transphobic lies. I don’t believe he deserves this much attention at all. Let’s talk about literally anything else.

I believe you reap in death what you sow in life. If you acted like garbage and spewed garbage and hung out with garbage in life, expect garbage in return when you die.

No I will not automatically give democrats the benefit of the doubt on trans rights (or any issue). They haven’t earned that level of trust.

Quite right. The bar is so low it’s lying on the ground, and so many people still manage to trip. If you do not support trans rights, I do not trust you.

reposted this today because the inverse is also true: if you abandon trans people right now, you are abandoning civil rights period. if you can't stand up for trans people when it matters, no one should, or will, ever trust you when the bullseye moves to the next target.

There is not one marginalized, racialized, or oppressed group whose oppression or destruction is an acceptable cost for saving "democracy." Not one. If saving democracy requires leaving marginalized people behind, that's not a democracy worth saving. Either we all get saved or none of us do.

We live in a rogue and dangerous country. Do what you need to do to maintain your internal peace. Hold the core of your spirit. Pray for peace. Commit yourself to justice. And just rest.

Happy No Kings Day to all who celebrate!

Productivity while the world burns is both impressive and exhausting.

I hope every friend, family member, and neighbor makes life incredibly uncomfortable for every single “law-enforcement” officer that put their hands on Senator Padilla.

As shenanigans get more nefarious, it’s more important than ever to know your rights.

People participating in mass protests do not have to DO anything violent to be perceived as a threat by the state because—from the perspective of the state—a unified mass presence IS the threat. State violence in response is often disproportionate because it’s a reassertion of dominance and power.

Hyper independence is a trauma response AND a super power.

Guys, the number of normies that have no idea what’s going on or that they have skin in the game is astounding. Talk to your friends about the human trafficking disguised as deportations. Tell them about the horrors of the bill that passed the house. Highlight the federal agencies being stripped.

hi, cis folks! if you’re calling democratic reps about the maga murder budget, you should *specifically mention* it’s unacceptable to pass a bill blocking funding for lifesaving transition care FOR TRANS PEOPLE OF ALL AGES. if you want to stand with trans people, this is a big moment. 🧵 reps.fyi

Comparing messaging out of Pritzker’s office vs messaging out of Healey’s… did I choose the wrong state?

I’m a Crystal Palace fan today!

public comment period for the proposed rule to remove trans care from the ACA as an essential health benefit & strip care from DACA recipients ends at 23:59pm EDT tonite if you haven't commented, it won't take long & is worth doing. context & guidance in-thread ⬇️ if you have commented, thank you💜🏳️‍⚧️

You need to be loud to be an advocate, but you don’t need to be loud to be an activist.

Remember, when everything is going to shit and you’re terrified of so many threats, it’s valid to find joy in the little things. When you have no idea how many you have left, every moment counts.

Seeing all of these #handsoff protests is giving me life! Stay safe and loud, everyone!

I’m so proud to watch @booker.senate.gov stand up for the American people. On pins and needles to see what other dems join him! What a wonderous sight. (No, DCC this does not mean I’m finally willing to donate.)

Morning thought: just because you’re not helping how you want does not mean you aren’t helping. Pausing to readjust is not failure, it’s learning a better way to be you.

Here is the link to submit a public comment. The threat is real. Your trans friends and family’s fear is not hyperbole. Taking 5 minutes to leave a comment protecting care will help more than you understand. www.regulations.gov/commenton/CM...

Dems that attend tonight - dressed however - are lending legitimacy to an illegitimate administration. #stateoftheunion #primariesarecoming

Is there anything better than that first sip of coffee in the morning?

I’m over caffeinated, under hydrated, and addicted to true crime.

Finding joy in the little, sparkly things while it feels like everything is crumbling around us.
