One Million Rising: Strategic Non-Cooperation to Fight Authoritarianism · No Kings Across the country, authoritarian forces are getting bolder and more dangerous. Trump and his allies are not hiding their agenda: mass deportations, rollbacks of civil rights, weaponized courts, and f...

I'm attending No Kings's event, “One Million Rising: Strategic Non-Cooperation to Fight Authoritarianism” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

This is so, so important: these smaller-in-size regional protests. It's not just big cities! It's people in small towns, too.

Had a lovely time with hundreds of parents and kids at our family-friendly Chalk the Walk pre-protest on #nokings day.

Big takeaway: parents want to be involved! You just gotta provide accessible options. 😊

More photos from our incredible Chalk the Walk Family-friendly Pre-protest for #nokings!

We originally thought we'd have maybe 50 people there.

But ended up getting closer to 500!

Marched the kids around Jefferson Park and made a hi-5 tunnel for the folks who went to the big rally downtown!

Here’s a New York Times photo of the Chicago “No Kings” rally. NYT said the march that followed spanned at least 10 blocks.

So important. This is America.

Freedom, equality, democracy, human rights are not and never have been dictated by polling approval.

We’re proud to announce, today’s turnout has already surpassed the Hands Off protest! Over 5.5m people and counting across the U.S. Get out there, be seen, and be counted. This is history in the making. Take plenty of photos and videos and post them publicly. Let the world see what’s happening.

Over 4.8 million and counting and many events haven’t even kicked off yet. We’re aiming for over 10 million today to hit the 3.5% rule. The crowds are massive and still growing. We are so proud of all of you. Huge shoutout to Texas you showed up!

In better news, it's time to start posting what's in bloom in my l'il native garden! I've also started putting up tips for the birds and bugs. I get so sad seeing the spring and fall cleanup that bags and trashes fireflies and butterflies.

🚨House Republicans just passed a bill that would disenfranchise 70 million married American women.

Under the SAVE Act, women who took their spouse’s last name and don't have an updated passport or birth certificate would be turned away at the polls.

Four Democrats voted for this bottomless insanity

Fellow Jewish folks , what ways have you found to combat this vile lie? Claiming us as accomplices in their Nazi shit, turning a real millennia-long problem into another of their manufactured instruments of hate. Makes me sick.

DHS to Begin Screening Aliens’ Social Media Activity for Antisemitism | USCIS Today U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will begin considering aliens’ antisemitic activity on social media and the physical harassment of Jewish individuals as grounds for denying imm...

BREAKING: The Trump administration will begin screening immigrants’ social media for “antisemitism.”

This will NOT fight antisemitism.

This is simply using Jews as an excuse to move a cruel, anti-immigrant, authoritarian agenda.

We refuse to be used this way.
