If anyone uses the Huntington Learning Center for SAT/ACT prep, they were a vendor at a Moms for Liberty sponsored event in NC this past weekend.
Of course it's the Moms for Liberty crowd who 👍🏼 this anti-immigrant post demonizing undocumented children here in North Carolina.
PSA - Reminding folks that the DoubleTree by Hilton (Raleigh-Durham Airport) will be a gathering place of Sons of Confederate Veteran losers from Feb. 27-28.
The hotel employees are likely required to cater to these white supremacists, so calls/complaints should be targeted at corporate/mgmt.
2/ The SCV (and their UDC counterpart) are mainly descendants of lowers who spend their lives lamenting their ancestors' loss, worshipping racist generals, writing revisionist history and meaningless essays, and decorating each other with medals/awards for just existing as descendants of losers.
1/ The Sons of Confederate Veterans still exist as a nonprofit. Pictured below are their member deaths (The Last Roll) and their new recruits from July/Aug 2025.
Confederate math suggests that the organization is on its last legs.
PSA Raleigh/Durham Feb 27-28, 2026
There is a loser confederate event at the DoubleTree by Hilton, Raleigh-Durham Airport on Feb 27-28.
Another example of how Better Angels is becoming more toxic. Civil discourse is valuable, but elevating members of a hate group (M4L) to leadership positions shows that the organization is more fixated on achieving a dangerous performative middle ground than finding actual solutions.
I hope you were still able to find joy in reading!
Must be exhausting to be so scared of children's books in 2026.

Sending immigration agents to polling sites - or even threatening to - is not only an illegal form of voter intimidation, but is straight up authoritarianism 101.

If we put as much energy into decarceration as we do anti-ICE efforts, and continued to name the violence and harm that regular incarceration causes to communities and families, then we might truly see what liberation looks like.
New guide just dropped 👇
For people new to the movement and/or gun ownership, check your state/local laws about weapons & protests so you can make the most informed decisions for yourself.
Laws won’t necessarily protect us in the streets (e.g. Alex Pretti) but they will undoubtedly be used against us by the state.
Many local cops aspire to become federal agents and won’t take risks that could jeopardize their future “careers”.
ICE’s disgustingly indiscriminate use of chemical weapons against children is only going to build and strengthen the resistance movement.
Also fuck ICE.
Signal Tip
LEAVING an inactive signal thread is good practice, as is “burning” the thread (everyone leaves, even admins). But don’t forget to manually DELETE the thread from Signal so it’s no longer visible on your devices.
This is especially critical if “disappearing messages” wasn’t turned on.
When the right has professionally printed signs they pose proudly, but when it’s leftists with signs, they pretty much lose their conspiracy laced shit and shake their fashy fists.
Alert Central Florida & beyond: Tyler Brett Palson, aka “Torch," is a neo-Nazi Vinlanders Social Club leader with some history of violence. He was arrested and charged with domestic battery on January 23, 2026 in Hernando County FL.

This adult (?) is an example of Montana's Border Patrol recent recruits.
The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”
That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.
NEW: 8 men linked to Vinlanders Social Club, a notorious violent racist skinhead group, have been detained for hate crimes.
Police in Charlotte, NC seized 3 members' phones last October after they brought knives and brass knuckles to a pro-Palestine protest. 1/4

I don't know how to do this. I just know people should be aware of these neo-Nazis who were arrested and released in NC. It would be cool if they'd find other ways to feel good about themselves. Chingra la Migra. Fuck ICE. 1/ arelephanteau.noblogs.org/post/2026/01...

Contract with ICE ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Laboratory Corp of America @labcorp.bsky.social in Burlington, NC has a Blanket Purchase Agreement with Homeland Security (link in comments) to do lab testing for ICE.
Any business making $ from ICE/CBP is complicit in enabling the violent authoritarian regime we now live under.
If you are waiting for local law enforcement to protect communities from federal pigs, just remember that many of these local cops aspire to be federal agents.
Cops are cops are pigs are cops.
