All the more reason to make sure local law enforcement isn’t complicit in this abuse of power.

We’ve exhausted every check and balance except the one they don’t mention, which is the consent of the people being governed.

Abrego Garcia indictment led top federal prosecutor in Tennessee to resign: Sources

Wow. What a sign that criminal case against Abrego Garcia may be politically cooked up.

"Schrader’s resignation was prompted by concerns that the case was being pursued for political reasons"

Schrader spent 15 years in the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Nashville and was chief of the criminal division

I've seen people saying this is due process; being put before a kangaroo court on the charges the regime transparently only invented to smear Garcia's name after his name became public is not "due process". It's still openly fascist dictator shit and I hope people won't be Handing It To Em for this.

i think it’s important to remember that the erosion of empathy and community in this society has been purposefully part of the christian nationalist project (to erode trust in both other people and government services to make room for the rollback of those services and the rise of authoritarianism)

Kennedy Center employees announce plans to unionize Staffers asked the National Labor Relations Board to oversee a union vote. They criticized leaders at the arts center for layoffs and a lack of transparency under President Donald Trump.

Workers at the Kennedy Center have faced layoffs, censorship and uncertainty from management about their jobs. Now, they’re organizing.

Congrats to the Kennedy Center United Arts Workers on announcing their intent to unionize.

Congratulations 🎉 that is wonderful !

Solène and Olivia are incredible, brave and compassionate.

Every time you accede to the wishes of transphobes, you are doing the work of fascists. They are one and the same—transphobia is just the mask fascism wears when it wants to exploit your anxieties about gender.

cardboard protest sign with that leguin quote: we live in capitalism. its power seems inescapable. but so did the divine right of kings. there's a mid-tier painting of a broken crown around a sword, which symbolizes that the artist (me) really wanted to paint a sword.
