this morning I went into my kid's room to wake him up and he looked so beautiful and peaceful while sleeping, and I thought about ICE bursting into that apartment building in Chicago to drag kids out of their beds and ziptie them, and I felt my entire body clench with fury

Kristi Noem was big mad that she was denied entry to the Village of Broadview Municipal Building in Illinois so that she could drop a dook.
Guess Kristi had the bubble guts.

Trump signs proclamation imposing annual $100,000 fee on H-1B visas Move deals potentially major blow to US tech industry, which relies heavily on workers from India and China

25% of Drs in US are foreign grads. Many are on an H1B visa. This will hit health systems hard especially rural hospitals and hospitals in underserved areas that sponsor these visas through waiver programs. The old cost was about 5000$ a year.

Join us in canceling Disney Plus. Let’s boycott ABC and Disney. If you’ve already canceled, drop a “done” in the comments.

Done!

*Kindest* reminder everything you're experiencing rn under American authoritarianism that *feels new* is not new for Native people.

I'd really recommend you start connecting with members of your local tribe by attending open events and listening to what the elders have to say.

190 years after the Trail of Tears, many native Americans still won’t use a $20 bill because of Andrew Jackson’s face on it.

Brown people were tricked and lied to by the President, then rounded up by men with guns and sent far away.

The scars of ethnic cleansing last forever.

If you aren’t uncomfortable learning our country’s history, you are learning propaganda.

Tell Congress to stand down federal forces and respect DC — Free DC

Join and support DC residents in resisting occupation. Here are a few ways:

✅ Call/write your members of Congress using this toolkit and/or the action alert below from @freedcproject.bsky.social: docs.google.com/document/u/0...

Over the weekend, the “sandwich thrower” posters went up all over DC. Instant icon of resistance.

A remix of Banksy’s mural: not a Molotov, not a rock, but something just as disruptive, a hoagie hurled with defiance.

#Resist the military occupation of DC!

Show up for DC! Sept 1-3 are the next National Days of Action #RemoveTheRegime #FuelTheFlare

I hope your community is never occupied like LA or DC. But if it is, you’ll quickly find that people don’t take kindly to having their city under federal control. And folks are just getting started.
