What's scary about this story is the surveillance it hints at. This trans woman had changed her name, legally, but chose not to change her gender marker. She was apparently flagged in the DMV system as trans and her license was invalidated under a law that supposedly only concerned gender markers.

Over half of albemarle county was liberated from slavery that day as the Union line reached them, including hundreds of people held in captivity by the university's professors, students, and the school itself.

Today is Liberation and Freedom Day In Charlottesville!

March 3, 1865, is when word of liberation from slavery reached the area.

A reminder below that much of what we experience as Cville/UVA culture was built by enslaved individuals & families.

Don Lemon is behind bars for reporting at a protest.

Independent journalists are being charged by Trump’s DOJ.

But Amy Coney Barrett says we’re “not in a constitutional crisis.”

It’s not just ignorance. It’s complicity.

ICE claim that a man shattered his skull running into wall triggers tension at a Minnesota hospital Nurses in Minneapolis doubted federal immigration officers' claims about a Mexican immigrant's severe injuries.

"Four hours after his arrest, he was taken to a hospital emergency room in Edina with swelling and bruising around his right eye and bleeding. A CT scan revealed at least eight skull fractures and life-threatening hemorrhages in at least five areas of his brain..."

The Trump administration is moving forward with plans that could dramatically shrink the FEMA, according to court filings. In documents submitted late Tuesday, groups warned that the Department of Homeland Security (which oversees FEMA) may cut more than 10,000 agency jobs which is 50% of staff.

ICE Denies Detainee's Request to Attend His Son's Funeral, Attorney Says Maher Tarabishi was the primary caretaker of his son, Wael Tarabishi, 30, who died on Friday, Jan. 23, from complication

Maher Tarabishi was detained in October during a scheduled check-in at an ICE facility.

He was the primary caretaker of his son, who died last week.

The family is seeking Maher's release so he can attend his son's funeral.

ICE reportedly denied the request.

Unimaginable cruelty.

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

Trump sold the oil from a seized Venezuelan tanker for $500,000,000.. Where is the money? He deposited it in a bank in Qatar where Congress can't get to it.
He stole the oil from Venezuela, but he stole the money from America.
Why has Congress not impeached and imprisoned him for his crimes?

ICE didn’t “catch” a criminal.
They detained a 5-year-old boy and his dad. Asylum seekers who followed every rule.
ICE snatched them anyway.
Shipped them 1,100 miles away.

And SCOTUS? They’ve already greenlit this whole playbook.

The party of law and order literally just wrote themselves a memo that says they don't have to follow the 4th Amendment.

That's right, ICE intends to perform illegal search and seizures without a warrant.

Add that to the list with "we had to beat up the police on Jan 6 to defend our democracy".

Texas has 2.1 million immigrants.

Florida has 1.6 million immigrants.

Minnesota has 130 THOUSAND immigrants.

What Trump is doing was NEVER about immigration.

It’s about RACISM and REVENGE in Minnesota.

He’s not creating jobs, or bringing down grocery prices or making healthcare affordable

Justice department ‘not investigating’ Renee Good killing in contrast to 2020 inquiry on George Floyd death In 2020, Trump DoJ investigated police killing of Floyd in Minneapolis, leading to four officers’ convictions

The DOJ has decided not to pursue a criminal civil rights investigation into the fatal shooting of Renee Good. Instead, the department has shifted its investigative focus toward Minnesota officials, including Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey. Living in the upside down.

DOJ Moves to Block Independent Monitor in Maxwell Case, Says Courts Cannot Force Epstein File Disclosures DOJ Tells Court It Cannot Be Forced to Release Epstein Files

DOJ is trying to block an independent monitor for the Epstein files, arguing courts can’t enforce the Epstein Transparency Act and lawmakers lack standing. Their position amounts to no court can force the DOJ to release the records.

‘Cancel your tickets’: Calls grow to boycott US-hosted FIFA World Cup over Trump admin With the 2026 FIFA World Cup set to be hosted in the United States this summer, calls have grown for a global boycott and ticket cancellations in protest of the Trump administration and its increasing...

Fans are cancelling tickets.

FIFA has called an emergency meeting over the World Cup backlash.

Boycott the Olympics too.

Trump's Gestapo will round up and shoot anyone.

No one is safe in America.

FBI executes search warrant at Washington Post reporter’s home The search came as part of an investigation into a government contractor accused of illegally retaining classified government materials.

This should alarm everyone. The FBI searched a journalist’s home and seized her work devices, despite no criminal charges. This is a direct threat to press freedom.

The so-called party of free speech and small government is happily supporting armed, masked government agents conducting “show me your papers” stops and brutalizing U.S. citizens.

Their real “party values” are terrorizing communities of color and anyone else who speaks out.

Remember this.

Every dictator in history has claimed that they’ll only use their powers to go after the worst of the worst.

Every dictator in history has lied.

Donald Trump is no different.

A federal judge in Manhattan has directed the government to formally respond to concerns raised by Representatives Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna, who are pressing for the appointment of an independent monitor to oversee the Justice Department’s compliance with a disclosure law they authored.

Protecting us from financial predators. Keeping our air and water clean. Making sure our food won’t make us sick.Regulat Who Wins in Trump’s Deregulation Spree?

Trump's EPA says it will stop calculating the public health value of air pollution regulations, instead solely focusing on costs to Big Business.

Like the rest of his deregulatory agenda, it's a gift for corporate donors and a disaster for the rest of us.

Minneapolis schools cancel classes after Border Patrol clash disrupts dismissal at Roosevelt Minneapolis schools closed for the week citing safety concerns after an encounter involving armed Border Patrol agents near Roosevelt High School.

Minneapolis Public Schools canceled classes district-wide for the remainder of the week, citing “safety concerns,” following the murder committed by an ICE agent. The move came after officials at Roosevelt High School said armed U.S. Border Patrol officers came on school property during dismissal.

Remember this:

RFK Jr is directly responsible for increased illness & deaths we will see from vaccine-preventable diseases.

Vaccines save millions every year.
His anti-science actions will kill people.

ESPECIALLY the most vulnerable. Children. Older adults. Immunocompromised.

A headline from the New York Times reads: Health Dept. to Freeze $10 Billion in Funding to 5 Democratic States

This is disgusting. Trump is planning to cut off $10B in funding for child care and crucial social services in 5 blue states including New York.

We should be expanding access to child care for American families.

Instead, Trump is playing politics with our children’s lives.

The challenges we now face must be met by a bold progressive populist movement that strengthens democracy and shakes up the system.

We can’t simply return to the path we were on before Trump.

We cannot accept the status quo of Big Money dominating our politics and economy.

Tell Congress: Demand Speaker Johnson hold a vote IMMEDIATELY on the ACA tax credit extension Contact Congress today!

Mike Johnson closed the House down early to avoid a vote on extending ACA tax credits. Nice try, Mike—all that does is give us more time to rally up support.

Let's get loud as hell, folks, and make sure every member of Congress knows where we stand:

SNAP is a lifeline for workers in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

Yesterday we were all waiting in the Epstein line. Today, the entire country has turned into investigators, tracking which files are disappearing. Sixteen gone so far. There’s been a remarkable amount of teamwork, with people working together to identify the missing documents.
