Exactly. People are upset that many folks are not paying attention to news but like I can't change the minds of SCOTUS? So perhaps going to a local board meeting is way more useful

In that case, it seems like if the federal agents need 'protection' for their own buildings, then the state shouldn't be helping. Can't have it both ways

Perhaps direct your State Patrol toward protecting citizens of your state from said federal agents?

Well, if people weren't following historians of fascism years ago, I would rather they start now then not at all. So yes, the second best time is now, given that time travel is not a thing

They're trying to prevent the student newspaper from printing news, period. Not just a particular story.

"The Media School directed us to print no news in the paper... nothing but information about homecoming — no other news at all, and particularly no traditional front page news coverage."

Best time was some years ago, second best time is now

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

If we really celebrated Columbus Day in the manner of the man, it would be legal to just walk into any store, take whatever you wanted, and say you 'discovered' it

Lol. I'm so old, I remember a bunch of right-wing whiners who stopped drinking Bud because the company did a woke ad. The exact same thing

How much do they think cardboard and markers cost? Even decent print jobs are not that expensive. But I guess if you're funding grifters who charge inflated prices for these things and skim, it's hard to conceive that people can afford $5 for a marker or two.

How Genocide Happened

Me, watching Black Mirror in like 2013: aw man, this is kind of over-the-top

Me, watching Black Mirror now: wow, they really did not go hard enough

Some of these people have now been fired and rehired TWICE since January. The current state of dysfunction is mind boggling.

In Broadview, IL this morning outside the Chicago area ICE detention center—

Just rolled up, immediately saw ISP/CCSO arresting a protester w/ a guitar (he appears to be in good spirits over it).

ICE vehicles have been coming and going, including a large bus driven by a masked agent seen earlier.

I also can't help but think about Elijah McClain, a young Black man who was walking on the sidewalk bothering nobody when racist cops and paramedics *gave him an overdose of drugs* which killed him.

This poor man, he did everything right. Had a job that he was doing well at, no criminal record at all, no drugs, nothing. But because he was Black and encountered racist cops and a racist system created by the city of Eagan, he died painfully and alone.

IDK, whoever has access to the Epstein files, start reading the names aloud on camera and posting to TikTok and YouTube. That's a start!

Or even just read headline after headline of Republicans indicted over child porn, inappropriate sexual acts, etc, and after each one say "Thou Shalt Not Lust"

How much could a bus that gets us to the Yale Club cost, Michael? $10?

Boy, I wish @hickenlooper.senate.gov would take this advice, too!

EL PASO — a family says ICE showed up at their house looking for migrants and shot and KILLED THEIR DOG, then didn’t help them as the agent ran away and was not identified.

is it not weird that every day there’s a new video of anonymous masked men having the time of their lives beating/shooting/disappearing people and the dem response from the top down is “republicans want to double your health insurance premiums”

Donald Trump is not a king — and his administration is not above the law.

Today, the court confirmed what we all know: there is no credible evidence of a rebellion in the state of Illinois.

And no place for the National Guard in the streets of American cities like Chicago.

They should challenge him to a duel for it

Habeus Corpus was obviously the founder of Antifa, and now they have his girlfriend in custody, duh

I have taken
the freedom of speech
that was in
the Constitution

and which
you were probably
using
for peaceful protest

Forgive me
the courts said they were
so agitating
and so irritating

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.
