Katharine Nyhus

We are having a very warm winter. I was just explaining to Carl (and Ted Lasso, not to be confused with Ruby) what a lucky boy he is, while they are lounging in the catio.

Happy Birthday!!! 🥳🥳

😍😍

Was Carl her original Valentine?

Update - I think this was at an event today, Sunday, not yesterday's event. (There were 4 local events this weekend so it's hard to keep track!) Just glad Jimmy is continuing to show up!

It's not real. We're not real. 😂

Bad Bunny!

Jimmy Kimmel joined us on Saturday. He’s local, he’s joined us before, and few of us realize until he posts afterwards. This time he’s disguised by a YETI hat. 😂

Thirty point swing to Democrats deep in the heart of Texas.

🎉🎉

Safety in numbers!! 😍😍

Thankfully Liam and his Dad are being released. Now do everyone else who isn’t a criminal, especially the children.

ICE OUT For Good in Torrance, CA. About 1,200 of us standing on all four corners of a busy intersection. We organize these smaller events with short notice and people appear!!! Lots of positive honks. Deafening really. Save the date for the next No Kings, March 28. #NoKings #AbolishIce ❌👑

Tell your senators to rein in ICE NOW On Wednesday, January 7, Renee Good was killed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Then, on January 24, Border Patrol killed Alex Pretti. These deaths were a direct...

Since the summer, Trump’s strategy of shifting ICE and the National Guard from city to city magnified this localism. Each targeted jurisdiction has responded with its own character: Protesters gathered to confront ICE en masse in the middle of a Los Angeles freeway, or have danced in frog costumes in Portland, Oregon. With the notable exception of a protest held a month into the federal occupation of D.C., the District’s residents have opted against the large gatherings that the city saw during the Women’s March and the George Floyd protests. Instead, many of them focused on helping one another as neighbors—chasing away ICE agents and walking the children of immigrant parents to school in the morning. “The people getting food to families of migrant neighbors abducted by ICE is resistance,” the D.C. mutual-aid collective Remora House explained. In Chicago, David Black, a Presbyterian pastor whom ICE agents shot with pepper balls, described protests outside Illinois ICE facilities as not “resistance” but “world building”: “We are making ourselves into the world we want to give to the next seven generations.”

One of the big trends in opposition activism during Trump 2.0 has been the localism of protest. This level of organizing is pretty astonishing to watch, and anyone who insists that there haven't been any protests against Trump is simply ignoring it www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

‘Enough Is Enough’: Hundreds of Minnesota Businesses Take Stand Against ICE

I've covered a lot of protests and resistance movements of various kinds in my days on this earth -- I've never seen anything quite like this epic day in Minneapolis today.

The prevailing consensus over the last year was that anyone calling for a general strike was ridiculous and ignorant and it would never work here, and maybe that’s true nationally, I dunno, but I bet those people wouldn’t have seen tomorrow in MN coming either

Instagram too! And some others. Here’s a good link:

Is everyone following the monks and Aloka, their adopted dog? It’s a balm for me. 🐕☮️

Hasn’t Villaraigosa been out of the public eye for a while? And didn’t he end with some yucky scandal?

I forgot too.

There are already a lot of candidates. No doubt some real characters because ….California! 😂

…until June so I’m not thinking too hard about it yet. Oh, Betty Yee is a favorite of some Dem insiders. She was the state controller for many years.

Lots of people running. Katie Porter is a front runner but she seems to have either big fans or big detractors. Eric Swalwell (currently in Congress) just threw his hat in the ring and has a lot of name recognition. The primary isn’t (cont)..

Sen Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) does not mince words here with his take on the strikes in Venezuela and the capturing of Maduro. ‘This is a dumb administration following a dumb man into a dumb war that will have dumb outcomes.’ Go Sen Gallego, more of this please Democrats!! Bravo💥🔥💥
