What a swell party this is!

Anti-ICE protest happening now in San Francisco. “No ICE, no KKK, no fascist USA.”

The apathy of the American public in response to totalitarianism is far scarier than the fascist regime itself.

This seems an excellent day to post a pic of the burning Reichstag in Berlin. Hitler blamed the 1933 fire on communists and used it as a pretext to suspend civil liberties and to allow the Nazis to peruse "ruthless confrontation" with German citizens.

Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.

The ACLU weighed in on Trump’s decision to federalize the National Guard as an “inflammatory abuse of power. This action puts Angelenos in harm’s way, exposes troops to legal and ethical consequences, and shreds a fundamental democratic principle, that the military has no place policing civilians.”

Pride Month so far: Jonathan Joss is murdered in a disgusting hate crime and the Navy intentionally announces they are changing the name of the USNS HARVEY MILK.

America... now more than ever... David Lynch's words ring loudly. "Fix your hearts or die." This cannot be our normal.

ICE arrested Elsy Noemi Berrios without cause or due process, damaging her car and traumatizing her family in the process. America cannot be a country where this is considered acceptable.

Call Congress to demand due process: 202-224-3121

They shattered her car window. They cuffed her in front of her daughter. With no warrant. No charges. No evidence. No due process. We must demand Noemi’s release. #DisappearedInAmerica #AbductedByTrump

And we're not even close to finished. #teslatakedown

They're arresting Members of Congress.

Perhaps a sternly-worded letter is in order.

Or, perhaps, it's time to play some damn hardball with the DOJ.

And the Democratic Party continues to do nothing.

The rule of law is all or nothing and must apply equally to everyone. If there's no rule of law for some people in America, then there's no rule of law for any of us.

ICE dragged a mother from her home in Massachusetts—clinging to her baby—without showing a warrant or ID.

When neighbors demanded proof, ICE sneered, “We don’t have to show you anything.”

That’s not law enforcement. That’s state-sponsored kidnapping.
This is fascism & it’s terrifying.

Trump Administration Slashes Research Into L.G.B.T.Q. Health Nearly half of the N.I.H. grants canceled through early May — together worth more than $800 million — addressed the health of sexual and gender minority groups, The Times found.

The Trump administration has scrapped more than $800 million worth of research into the health of LGBTQ people, abandoning studies of cancers and viruses that tend to affect members of sexual minority groups, according to an analysis of federal data by The New York Times.

20 federal immigration agents mistakenly raided the Oklahoma City home of a family of U.S. citizens, held the mother and her three daughters at gun point, and seized the family’s phones, laptops, and life savings.

Agents from the FBI, ICE, and DHS were cruel and abusive, treating the mother and…

Interesting that if you shop at Whole Foods, a lot of money is spent making it feel like a place that respects workers and embraces progressive values, but it is not.

Costco just feels like a warehouse but they treat their workers pretty well and has rejected anti-DEI BS

Irish woman living in US for decades detained by immigration officials Cliona Ward, who had returned from trip to Ireland, held over criminal record from almost 20 years ago

A woman who has been living in America since she was a child took a trip to visit her sick father in Ireland. On her return to the US she was detained by immigration officials because of drug possessions dating back almost 20 years and has now been held in an Ice facility for more than a week

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

Andry José Hernández Romero

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.

No one has heard from you in 43 days.

As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Andry Romero, a gay makeup artist came to the US last year in search of asylum. He did not show up for his scheduled court date - ICE had seized him & took him to brutal prison in El Salvador. His family is desperately worried. Senator request to see him was denied. Proof of life denied.

EMERGENCY ACTION

Join us we’re actively working to get coalition members on the ground! Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan was arrested by the FBI this morning after refusing to allow ICE agents into her courtroom. She was taken to the federal courthouse.

So much of what they are doing is so unAmerican we aren't reacting because it seems so crazy. THEY ARE DOING IT! It is happening here. Get up. Get out. Protest. Write letters. Put up signs. Fox is not a good source.

Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.

Holy shit. This happened last night at the townhall of MAGA Congresswoman Harriet Wageman, who defeated Liz Cheney in deep red Wyoming, where Trump won with over 45%, the biggest margin in the nation.

Give 'em hell.
