It’s time now to start making signs for the huge No Kings 2 protest coming Saturday, October 18.

The Housing and Urban Development website appears to have become an extension of “Truth Social.” As of now it looks like this. A reminder that you’re needed Oct 18 to make a really huge No Kings 2 nationwide protest. HUD.gov.

We ask once again: what IS Trump trying to hide in the #EpsteinFiles? #ReleaseTheFiles.

Yep, we were afraid of that happening.

Important words from our sister group Indivisible Vashon.

Jimmy Kimmel will return to TV after highly criticized suspension Late-night host reinstated after brief suspension related to comments on Maga and Charlie Kirk that Disney called ‘insensitive’

When enough of us fight, we win. Enough of us fought this. Join us. Show up against authoritarian government. It works. Come off of the sidelines. Now, will #WSET 13 Lynchburg, owned by right-wing #Sinclair, put #JimmyKimmel back on the air? We want to know the answer.
#disney

By removing Kimmel, Disney/ABC demonstrate they’ll sell our democracy to make a buck. Boycott.

So, let’s cost them some bucks. Cancel your Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN subscriptions!

Pentagon demands journalists sign pledge not to gather certain information If they don’t agree to limits, including restricting movement within building, Pentagon press passes will be revoked

To all news organizations that still have Pentagon press passes: to bow to this demand is to bow to dictatorship. Refuse. If Hegseth restricts you this much, you become mere arms of regime propaganda. Join the reporters who are already banned. @freedomofthepress.bsky.social @indivisible.org

Yep. Cut back on #foodstamps, then cover up the results. That’s just the sort of thing dictators do. And we’ve got one.

Oklahoma Republicans propose all state colleges must have Charlie Kirk statue Schools would be required to build memorial plaza and describe slain activist as civil rights leader or face fines

This actually is not satire, but real.

Coming next: requiring a golden statue of Trump in every Oklahoma house of worship. (Ok, not real - yet - but not hard to imagine.)

What a new poll shows about where Americans think the country is heading A new poll shows Republicans’ outlook on the direction of the country has soured dramatically. The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll was conducted shortly after last week's...

New #APpoll. Let’s watch to see if this trend shows up in other polls, and whether it is sustained.

People are canceling Hulu and Disney+ in protest of Jimmy Kimmel's firing "Not on my watch."

As of a few minutes ago, national Indivisible is calling on you to cancel your subscription to Disney Plus and Hulu now if you have them, to pressure ABC for enabling the Trump regime on this. Let’s do this!

post malone ergo propter malone on Bluesky: “they don't have the capacity to compel obedience by the process of law. they don't have the capacity to compel obedience by violence. the only lever by which they can obtain obedience is fear. do not offer it to them.”

Matthew Gertz on Twitter: “People need to be honest that distributors were fleeing his show because the FCC chair publicly threatened their licenses if they didn't. The FCC chair IS a state actor, not a private actor. Tell the truth.”

Aaron Fritschner on Twitter: “Carr is now acting like he didn't directly threaten to pull their license if they did not comply with the demands of the Trump Administration, a thing he did in full public view”

This You? on Twitter: (A screenshot of Brendan Carr’s tweet from February 14, 2019: “Should the government censor speech it doesn't like? Of course not. The FCC does not have a roving mandate to police speech in the name of the "public interest."”)

This isn’t about Jimmy Kimmel, it’s about whether free speech and democracy survive. And the American people will make it clear: We won’t be silenced.

“Condemn violence” sign on a bridge.

Reject political violence of all kinds.

Washington Post Columnist Says She Was Fired for Posts After Charlie Kirk Shooting

The hypocritical @washingtonpost.com, which supposedly prioritizes “personal liberties” in its editorial mission, has fired columnist Karen Attiah for exercising her personal liberties. If you subscribe, has the moment finally arrived to cancel? @karenattiah.bsky.social

What Is A Groyper? Alt-Right Group Nick Fuentes Says Was ‘Framed’ In Charlie Kirk Shooting. Social media users speculated whether a suspect arrested in Kirk’s fatal shooting was linked to the white nationalist’s following.

Don’t be quick to decide you know the ideology of the killer of #CharlieKirk. Check this article, for example - in sum, we don’t know. We do know this for certain: political violence of any kind must stop. It harms all Americans.

A Time to See With New Eyes Wow, what a few days.

@msnbc.com, you sure do come across as #ObeyingInAdvance, as another of your frequent guests @timothysnyder.bsky.social has often described on your network. Do better.
