Fighting for our Future

All we want is healthcare.

This is residents in San Diego telling Ice-Gestapo agents to get TF out of their neighborhood. More of this please. 💙👊

Some context for people discovering Worcester (pronounced woosta) and our police force who I have numerous stories of had the DOJ come out with a scathing report about their misconduct and civil rights violations. Maybe now we can do something about it #mapoli

On Thursday, Trump signed an executive order to slash PBS and NPR funding—because telling the truth is “bias” in MAGA-land.

Half a billion in public funding at risk so he can silence facts and feed propaganda.

Take the Sharpies away before he crosses out the First Amendment too.🤬

Empathy is not some fluffy thing. Empathy allows a person to feel, in a sense, what another feels. Empathy is being able to feel another's pain; yet, empathy also allows a person to feel another's fear, anger and hatred. Empathy is something to be understood for what it is. Empathy can be used to help others. It can also be used to harm others. Feeling another's fear, anger, hatred and self loathing is something that can tear a person's Id apart, if allowed. Empathy is not a fluffy toy. Empathy is a strength. Empathy is the thing that allows us to fight monsters, using their fear, anger and hatred against them. Knowing ones adversaries doesn't mean becoming those adversaries. Empathy, while keeping our minds free of fear, anger and hate, is our greatest strength in fighting the monsters that are now attacking us. #TheAlliedForces

OMFG, this is insane!

People damaging cars are ‘sick terrorist thugs’ per Trump.

People trying to kill his vice president and destroying Capitol Hill are patriots deserving of pardons, also per Trump.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Was it Mr. Lutnick—the Baghdad Bob of trade negotiations for the United States—who said that Canada wasn’t showing that we were grateful?

Are you kidding me? You’ve threatened our nation, and now you’re saying we’re not being grateful?

This entire story is made up. It's straight Russian propaganda with zero basis in reality.

Find a cool product on Amazon? That company exists OFF Amazon, too. 1) Google company name. 2) Order from their site. 2a) Can usually find a 10% code! 3) Still get product in 2-8 days. 4) Company avoids losing 25% margin share to Amazon. 5) You avoid giving money to Bezos.

You don’t know who we just disappeared to El Salvador. Think about that.

‘The Interview’: Chuck Schumer on Democrats, Antisemitism and His Shutdown Retreat The Senate minority leader discusses the backlash to his vote on the Republican spending bill, how he sees his role within the party and his new book.

Chuck Schumer suggests it is antisemitic to say what Israel is doing in Gaza is a genocide. Yet some of Israel’s own top scholars of genocide and the Holocaust, all of them Jewish - Omer Bartov, Amos Goldberg, Daniel Blatman - say it is a genocide in Gaza.

Does Schumer consider them antisemite too?

Marco Rubio should be jailed for contempt of court

Federal Judge Boasberg ordered the Trump administration to stop deporting immigrants and directed that-if removals were ongoing-the planes must be turned around

Rubio clearly violated that order

This unconstitutional conduct must be stopped

**Updated March 12th** I will continue to update this but due to safety concerns I will be turning off public comments. One thing I've learned over the past few weeks, and it's been a bit of a sobering lesson, is that a lot of Americans I know don't actually know what's going on between the US and Canada right now, and just how seriously Canadians are taking this. So, against my better judgement, here's a timeline to explain why we're here, and why we're angry. Nov 30th, 2018 - The United States, Canada and Mexico finalize a trade agreement. Trump personally negotiates the terms and signs the document, celebrating it as 'the greatest trade agreement in history". (This is important.) Nov 29th, 2024 - In a face to face meeting, Trump threatens the Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, that he will be imposing 25% tariffs and that if Canada wants to avoid that, it should join the US as a state. Nov 30th, 2024 - Trump publicly calls our Prime Minister 'Governor Trudeau' and instructs his staff to only address him as Governor going forward. He again suggests Canada should join the USA. Dec 3rd, 2024 - Trump remarks that he would split Canada into two states once annexed. Dec 10th, 2024 - Trump posts that the majority of Canadians support annexation, despite public polling that only 13% of Canadians would consider the idea. Dec 18th, 2024 - Trump again falsely states that the majority of Canadians support annexation and that one of his lapdogs, Wayne Gretzky, should have a leadership role in that new scenario. Jan 7th, 2025 - At a press conference, Trump says that he would use economic force to destroy the Canadian economy to annex it. Jan 14, 2025 - Trump again claims that most Canadians want to be American, despite new polls showing only 10% of us are open to the idea. Jan 20th, 2025 - During his inaugural address, Trump says that the U.S. will 'expand its territory' during his second term. Jan 23rd, 2025 - At the World Economic Forum, Trump says that …

I thought the Trump/Canada thing was a distraction, but I'm wrong. Trump is deadly serious, and the Canadians are taking it seriously. Here's a timeline I found on Facebook. The whole text is in Alt Text (it's over the 2000 character limit, 2nd image will follow)

😲 Thank you! I shared this post on FB, and went back to verify that I had indeed seen that, and it wasn't there! I had to come onto Bluesky and search the info to make sure I wasn't losing it!

This is how authoritarian regimes test the waters. The first disappearance is a warning. If no one fights back, the next one comes easier. And the one after that. Until fear replaces resistance.

Now, imagine this happening to you. Would anyone fight for you?
