This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

(between images of the Spotify logo that have been crossed out) DON’T STREAM FASCISM Spotify is treating ICE recruitment like just another ad. But when you turn family separation into a marketing pitch, you're not a platform — you're spreading propaganda. • Cancel your Spotify Premium subscription until Spotify removes all ICE ads • Demand Spotify immediately terminate all ICE and DHS advertising contracts. • Urge artists and podcasters to speak out.

Do you use Spotify Premium? Cancel your subscription until Spotify stops running ICE ads. There are other streaming options that don’t profit from exploiting artists while recruiting for ICE: indivisible.org/cancel-spoti... #CancelSpotify

Exactly.

Good grief #ice #facial #recognition ⚖️‼️👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

Well, you can finally cross “I’ve seen a handcuffed, inflatable penis” off your bucket list

We don’t yet know what motivated the person who shot and killed Charlie Kirk, but this kind of despicable violence has no place in our democracy. Michelle and I will be praying for Charlie’s family tonight, especially his wife Erika and their two young children.

What a — excusez mon français, s’il te plait — a government shitshow of unfathomable proportions

It is less a mass deportation regime as it is a mass kidnapping and indefinite detention regime

A black background graphic with the red and white Stand Up for Science logo in the top left. Large white text reads “OFFICIAL STATEMENT –”. Below, the statement is in white text with key phrases highlighted in red: illegal retaliation, brave civil servants at the EPA, betrayal of our nation’s most dedicated members of society, Whistleblowing is protected by law, We stand with them, egregious retaliation and First Amendment violation. The full statement condemns unlawful retaliation against EPA employees who signed the Declaration of Dissent, calling whistleblowing a protected act and a public service, affirming support for these workers, and framing the retaliation as a First Amendment violation. At the bottom, the statement is signed: “– Colette Delawalla, Founder & Executive Director.”

Trump’s EPA is continuing its illegal retaliation against employees for telling the truth in defense of our planet and the nation.

We stand with these brave employees in their fight against this retaliation.

The resistance is active in DC—you’re just not looking closely enough It's not massive protests on Pennsylvania Avenue, but happenstance hecklers and Nextdoor posts.

The DC resistance isn’t manifesting this week as recognizable members of Congress marching up and down Pennsylvania Avenue with CNN cameras in tow, but as an array of ordinary DC residents documenting what’s happening in their neighborhoods and mobilizing pop-up actions.
