Friends, I know you're excited to try protesting, but under no circumstances should you ever sign up to attend one. I'm suspicious of any org asking people to put their name on a list that is easily accessible via warrant or may even be public. You can just show up day of.

The Signal chat carries intense governance by cosplay vibes. Not hugely different to the orders my teens shout at friends while gaming. I’m not trying to be cute, it actually freaks me out. Feels like the gov version of plastic surgery to look like mannequins designed to look like beautiful people.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

Greenpeace ordered to pay Dakota Access Pipeline operatorΒ hundreds of millions in defamation suit A North Dakota jury awarded damages to Energy Transfer, the company that runs the Dakota Access Pipeline, after finding Greenpeace liable in a high-stakes defamation case.

The decision regarding Energy Transfer v Greenpeace about the activism against the Dakota Access Pipeline is out. Not only will the decision likely bankrupt Greenpeace US, but it will set a precedent that could limit free speech by climate groups & other NGOs.

A couple hours ago, the FTC was deleting hundreds of blog posts. Now, Trump is seemingly trying to delete Democratic commissioners.

Commissioner Alvaro Bedoya just posted this statement to X.
