Will we allow ICE to behave as a secret police? I had missed the story from two weeks ago about what happened after (apparent) agents of the U.S.

New post from me: a free society should not tolerate routine masking and other attempts to conceal identity by ICE agents raiding worksites, stopping cars and arresting protesters. And it's part of a wider Trump administration strategy of pursuing impunity for rights-violating law enforcers.

Do we want some Coup Monday beauty? What a beautiful place to scream after work

@fetterman.senate.gov What's up with your phone lines? I've been calling DC and Philly since 9 to ask if you are doing anything about Musk's power grab or abdicating your powers as an elected Congressional official with power of the purse and keep getting hung up on. Please advise your constituents

Exclusive: Musk aides lock government workers out of computer systems at US agency, sources say Aides to Elon Musk charged with running the U.S. government human resources agency have locked career civil servants out of computer systems that contain the personal data of millions of federal employees, according to two agency officials.

it's not hyperbolic to say we're witnessing a coup.

Do something aside from putting out social media bytes

Same.

Quaker groups, including in Philadelphia, sue to keep ICE out of religious sites The lawsuit says “the very threat" of ICE enforcement deters congregants from attending services, violating First Amendment rights of religious liberty.

Several Quaker groups, including one in Philadelphia, are suing the Department of Homeland Security after President Donald Trump’s administration rescinded guidance preventing ICE agents from raiding houses of worship.

How to wage a class war against the oligarchy:

Rules for resistance
1. Goal focus: Get 3.5% of the population in active resistance.
2. Build local support networks and get involved in local governments.
3. Coalesce with existing and experienced orgs. Don't start new ones.
4. Refrain from moralizing. Action only.
5. Make art and spectacle.
