Turns out the 1940s NYC Tax Department photographs (by WPA photogs) include outtakes, and they are so wonderful! 1940s.nyc/outtakes

The most vital thing you can do right now is spread this message offline to normies. There is no "unrest", there's a protest. It has 400 people. LA does worse when the Lakers come in 3rd in a season.

Friendly reminder. In the United States, criminals are entitled to due process. Even if you pay hush money rig an election, steal top secret documents, or incite a mob to overthrow the government; no matter how egregious your crimes, you’re entitled to due process.

Gov. Kim Reynolds signs law lowering Iowa age to own a handgun to 18 Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds signed a law, which goes into effect July 1, to allow 18-, 19- and 20-year-olds to own and carry handguns.

Republicans are actually lowering the age limit to buy guns to 18, even though 18 to 20-year-olds are FOUR TIMES more likely to commit gun homicides. This is craven.

Not sure who needs to hear this, but any govt official who violates someone's constitutional rights -- and is acting outside the scope of their lawful authority -- can be PERSONALLY liable in a civil suit.

ICE officers. Cabinet members. White House staffers. Even the president.

Dallas school shooting: 4 hurt at Wilmer-Hutchins High School, suspect on the loose Three people have non-life-threatening injuries, and one person is in serious condition because of a shooting at Wilmer-Hutchins High School in Dallas.

Wilmer-Hutchins High School in Dallas, Texas, was on lockdown after a "shooting incident" wounded a 17-year-old in the leg. This comes one day after state lawmakers heard bills that could allow 18 year olds to carry loaded guns in schools.

8/ This is a watershed moment, as Trump thumbs his nose at a Supreme Court ruling, gaslighting the public by pretending his won 9-0 when he lost 9-0.

If we normalize this, there's no end. He can lock up or remove anyone. We will no longer exist in a democracy.

A Governor’s home was set on fire while he and his family slept inside, and the President has still not said anything, as far as I can tell.

Worth noting that Trump attacked Shapiro as a “highly overrated *Jewish* Governor” last summer.

Protests aren’t the only tool in the anti-authoritarian toolkit, but they’re incredibly important. Protests help us see each other; they make it feel safer to refuse to obey the dictator, and make it more possible for us to organize mass non-cooperation.

It’s an essential step in the process.

This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.

Today, Trump’s 10% tariffs go into effect which serve only to raise costs for the American people.

Here’s a statement the White House released today:

“The President won his second round matchup of the Senior Club Championship today in Jupiter, FL, and advances to the Championship Round tomorrow.”
