I wish the Democratic 'war room' would broadcast a daily news summary covering stories like these that for some unexplicable reason!!! go underreported by traditional media.

Marshaling is a great life-learning experience and you'll be a part of the history that succesfully defended democracy.

Midwest Correspondent for The Economist:

Sad that we have to protest outside 26 Federal Plaza, NYC because the federal government is attacking journalists and sending them to the hospital, but we do and we will.

Donate to Wikipedia if you can.

"We will not live on our knees, and you shouldn't either." is a strong rallying cry.

Spirited, joyful, angry march.

A moment of silence at a huge ICE Out of NYC march in downtown Manhattan. I mourned and reflected on what more I could do.

Hey a thing I really don’t want to get lost here is that while Tylenol doesn’t cause autism, IT’S FINE TO BE AUTISTIC. Let’s not grant them the premise that autism should be eradicated in our way to correct the science, okay? Okay.

Already dreading the 'my ratings were bigger than Kimmel's ratings' blather.

"For email and calendar, the interest group recommends Proton Mail & Calendar, Tuta Mail & Calendar, and Soverin. For alternative browsers and search engines, Bits of Freedom advises downloading and installing Firefox, Brave, Startpage, and DuckDuckGo."

Just got a great set of emails from the FBI.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

Jimmy Kimmel, if you’re reading this: the door is open. We would love for you to lead an effective resistance to the authoritarianism. You're as capable as anyone, and we need more leaders desperately.

This has been coming from the beginning. All major democracy-supporting NGOs and foundations have their legal complaints already drafted. And in time, perhaps not even much time, they will win their cases. What is needed most in the meantime is courage. Keep saying what you think, doing what you do.

The era of rampant dehumanization, in so many damaging ways, everywhere you look.

PUBLIC HEALTH ORDER NEW MEXICO DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SECRETARY GINA DEBLASSIE AUGUST 29, 2025 Ensuring Availability of COVID-19 Vaccine for the 2025-2026 Season

THIS ORDER supersedes any previous order, proclamation, or directives to the extent they are in conflict. This Public Order shall take effect immediately and remain in effect until such time as it automatically expires one year from the date of issuance, or until such time as the New Mexico Department of Health Cabinet Secretary rescinds it.

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

Let us know if we can help make sure they do.

It's a long entry.

For our friends across the country asking how you can help, this one's for you. 🧵

D.C. residents rallied near the White House this morning to protest President Trump’s federal takeover of city law enforcement.

Free DC led a rally near LaFayette Square this morning, where speakers called on D.C. area residents to fight back President Trump’s ‘fascist’ federal takeover.

Time for a Democratic Shadow War Room profile. Are there any out there?

Protesters in NYC blocked the street in front of 26 Federal Plaza—where ICE is inhumanely kidnapping and detaining people—to demand their release.

Refusing to budge until people were released, more than a dozen protesters were arrested by the NYPD while they screamed, “Let them go, or we stay too!”

we don't actually know what's going to *work* so we need to try many different kinds of things and that means that a lot of what people are trying will not be your choice of action.
