Everyone can contact their Gov's urging them to arrest any ICE agent that's breaking the law. Marc Dann made a good point that lawfare can go both ways below. Even if prosecutors lose, it can deter these ICE Nazi's if they think they may have to deal with legal probs down the road. Call your Govs.

🔴 LOCATION CHANGE 🔴 Due to the overwhelming response, we've moved to a larger location! This country belongs to WE THE PEOPLE. 💪🏻 Millions organizing cannot be denied or ignored. Join the coalition of pro-Democracy groups in the #Chicago suburbs on Oct 18. #NoKings ➡️ www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

Good launch video overall, and the focus on the Gaza genocide is notable. I think many Dems don't understand how much of a primary issue this will be in '26 and '28.

This story feels like it’s going to have huge repercussions

I strongly approve of @katmabu.bsky.social bias for action. Keep it up girl 🔥 ~middle aged white suburban dad in 60005 www.chicagotribune.com/2025/09/12/i...

Yeah, we're cooked. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8S8pVQq/

The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents. In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.

How is this not a screaming massive headline across every news site? This is insane, a virtual declaration of civil war. We fought a revolution to not be subjected to this kind of tyranny

There was a Doctor Who episode where something happened because everyone on earth manifested it. Turns out the show is fictional. Damn.

ded 😭☠️

Another is that we hold them at too high of a standard:

Ah yeah, Brewers swept the Twins too.

Magic The Gathering event vs. Trump's Birthday Party

Folks, don’t temp them. You’re going to end up hurt. A lot of cops are reactionary meatheads that are going to take it too far. It’s not worth it. Especially while they feel extra empowered right now.. I’ve been in this kids situation before. It wasn’t worth the ruined night and angry girlfriend

🧵1/ Whats happening in Los Angeles was never just about LA. It’s a test. Trump is preparing to run the same playbook in Chicago and other U.S. cities. Here’s what you need to know 🧵 #Chicago #StopTheRaids #NoMilitaryInOurCities

As I said in my article, Trump is likely hoping to send those Guard folks back home with ugly stories to tell.

just that period reminder that content posted to Bluesky is public to *anybody*. if you don't want to see it used in a court of law, don't post it here. and DMs here are not E2EE, they can be subpoened. a great use for bsky DMs is to share secure comms and move the conversation there.

www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjg8FsoH/ I don’t always agree with Gavin Newsom but on this I’m 100% behind him. Time for CA, IL, NY and other blue states that pay out more than receive to cut off the feds if they threaten us. Time for Red states to, as they like to say, “pull themselves up by their bootstraps”.

The latest breaking news and its implications are chilling: Supreme Court Lets DOGE View Social Security Data In a second order, the court ruled that, for now, DOGE does not have to hand over internal records to a government watchdog group 1/13

Brocasts aren’t republican. They are for young guys. If you want to connect you have to speak to them. If you want to lose by 248k votes in 7 swing states, ignore them

@katmabu.bsky.social thoughts on that blink of a spot on Realtime tonight

We’ve got about 10-15 days. We’ll probably see prices first skyrocket in the next two weeks, then bare shelves, mass layoffs, reduction in workforce, unemployment benefits dry up, protests turn to rioting and looting. Marshal law will be declared and that’s when Hegseth turns the military on us.

This was a few weeks ago. As the shipping ports see sharp declines in traffic now, we’re about to go through it in another week or two.

🚨 Constitutional crises 🚨 www.jsonline.com/story/news/b...

Now this is what the phrase “promises made, promises kept” actually means. Well done sir!

The slope isn't slippery; the frog isn't gradually getting boiled. Within its first hundred days the Trump administration has openly asserted the right/ power to seize and imprison anyone— including political dissidents, including citizens— and deprive them of any legal recourse at all. 5/

INDEPENDENCE DAY starring Cory Booker Sound up!

We deserved some good news!

A good night for humanity.

Insane is an understatement

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

The first and most important thing to know about last night's Exec order is that it's intended to break current law and allow people throughout the federal gov look at yr tax returns. Beyond that it's intended to compel states to turn over all their data to the fed govt.

Bingo

1/2: The next flight out could be carrying your neighbor, a coworker, you, or me or anyone deemed undesirable. 1984, Chapter 5 “Syme had vanished. A morning came, and he was missing from work: a few thoughtless people commented on his absence. On the next day nobody mentioned him.

Re-upping, as it’s more relevant than ever, now.

That’s right. 🇺🇦

Did you know? In 1968, 24 Black men in Pittsburgh revolutionized emergency medicine. The Freedom House Ambulance Service was established to provide emergency medical care to underserved Black neighborhoods—creating the world’s first paramedics.

Really love this cartoon from the great Michael De Adder. The outpouring of support coming in has been truly amazing! Thanks everybody!

Genius. If anyone knows OP, I’ll repost with credit

I celebrate all forms of *good* nonconformist dissent

Legal cheating is what I've been calling it. And they went full blitz in November.

Yes, it was a **z* SS salute. It was deliberate for reasons that are being overlooked. This was the “shock and awe” they planned and everyone took the bait. This has no effect on our day to day, yet, literally EVERYONE is talking about it. Stay focused on what matters people. Long road ahead 🙏
