The protests aren’t stopping anytime soon in AZ. Thousands of protesters in Tempe right now for an anti-ICE protest.

since i'm apparently already feeling angry and vindictive today it feels like a good time to ask where the "don't call Trump fascist" debate has landed, you know, post-secret police

If you want to show solidarity with Los Angeles, the best thing to do is organize protests against ICE tonight/tomorrow in your own cities.

Search the web for ICE rapid response networks in your own city / state and sign up. Help your neighbors.

Opinion | Unmarked Vans. Secret Lists. Public Denunciations. Our Police State Has Arrived. Those of us who’ve seen secret police in action can’t shake a feeling of dreadful familiarity.

“The United States has become a secret-police state. Trust me, I’ve seen it before.” - @mashagessen.bsky.social

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

This may be the biggest free speech crisis in living memory. The president now bragging about detaining a lawful permanent resident and smearing him as 'pro Hamas', no outlining any specific crimes he is accused of or charged with. This is what a fascist takeover looks like.

It's the entire email list for all DOGE employees. Have fun!

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

"What are we supposed to do, we don't control Congress"

"What are we supposed to do, we don't have a supermajority"

"What are we supposed to do, our supermajority has moderate democrats"

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.

I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

I feel this, deeply!

This is nice to hear. I've been stuck at the wall of self doubt and hesitation for quite some time.

Israel bans the importation into Gaza of anaesthetics. Hence, the scores of children who are amputated daily, following Israel's bombings, are put to the knife without anaesthesia - if they are lucky to be taken to a functioning medical facility and not be bombed when in it.

Yes, please

People who say they care about women’s and girls’ sports are noticeably quiet about how eliminating the Department of Education would end federal oversight of Title IX enforcement of the equal existence of women’s and girls’ sports

Absolutely. This place is way better.

I’m one of the few Dems in NYC who even RUNS a general election campaign, and the only one who ran a robust field op. We ran ahead of top of the ticket.

Excellence matters. A lot of folks w/ poor campaign fundamentals are now blaming “wokism” but haven’t held a town hall or knocked a door all cycle

I'm liking the feel of Bluesky right now. I've been on a general posting hiatus for a couple years. I just might have to start up again!

Alright, now this I like to see!
