Whatever you’ve been doing, STOP & LISTEN (read). This is happening on our soil in our name paid for with our tax dollars.
Every one of us should call our House members & Senators. 202-224-3121
And flood the call lines to Gov. DeSantis’ office: 850-717-9337

". . . for the simple fact that they are struggling for peace, struggling for a decent America where all of us who have helped build that land can live in decency and in good will."

It is worth recalling his words now:

" . . . some of the finest people in the world [are] under pressure today, facing jail, facing hostile courts . . .

And so very heart-warming to know that this is all originating right here in our neighborhood!

Pro-Trump group wages campaign to purge “subversive” federal workers Federal employees faced a barrage of intimidation and harassment after a group linked to the Trump administration posted their personal information on online “watchlists” denouncing them as liberals. Some have been fired. Two have moved abroad, fearing for their safety.

More stochastic terrorism waged against federal workers that @washingtonpost.com will never report.

While all the folks screaming about property damage during BLM protests are curiously silent.

Very helpful outline to cut through the nonsense behind ICE.

This is the wealthiest nation in history.

Instead of making sure everyone has food, shelter, & healthcare, WE ARE FLYING A CHILD RAPIST WHO WE PAY TO HIS GOLF COURSE WITH A COTERIE OF BODYGUARDS WHO WE ALSO PAY.
And we let him take bribes.

@thehillishome.com Look at what was happening down the street from our neighborhood.

I know people who think their "higher duty" is to work for orgs run/owned by unethical (& occasionally criminal) people bc those orgs sometimes do good work--or, more to the point, give THEM work THEY like that is not of itself criminal or unethical.

But collaboration is always kidding yourself.

"They mean well."
"They are misunderstood."
"You have to listen to all sides."

Nope, nope, nope.

Thank you for upholding freedom and the Constitution.

Yes.

Universities, media companies, members of Congress, CEOs, tech giants, and other so-called "leaders" bowing to fascism ALL can learn a lot from Zelensky, one of the bravest souls on Earth.

Dear White People,

ONE of our jobs right now is to make sure we’re not in social circles where fascism is unmentioned.

The ultimate privilege is to pretend this isn’t happening & that we’ll somehow be unaffected.

It is happening.
We made it happen.
We will be affected.
Others are affected first.

Please read this from FCC Commissioner @agomezfcc.bsky.social to understand what is about to happen at CBS. The network’s content will now be fully-controlled by the Trump Administration.

Me too.

Disease as revenue stream.

These people are not leaders in any sense of the word. They are reprehensible cowards who have the power and position to stand up for others, yet consistently choose not to.

They should be referred to as such for purposes of reporting accuracy.

It would look better no matter what Liberace did there, including being president.

Odd, how South Park is covering Kristi Noem and her ICE hooligans more accurately than The New York Times.

Is she undocumented?

Ghislaine Maxwell is not a U.S. citizen. She was born in France and holds British citizenship. Maxwell has lived in the U.S. for many years.

She got due process, but brown ladies selling fruit do not have that luxury.

We know white, er..I mean why.

Compelling private institutions to turn over their privately held and proprietary data should go well.

(OTOH, if they bow down to the king-ish for this private data, the peasants can go to court for @upenn.edu to release the king-ish's undergrad transcript AND all disciplinary notes ;-)

Essential reading if you are a DC resident.

(FWIW I heard a radio report this am that deployment of fed law enforcement in DC has already started.)

Agree!

Yesssss . . . except that the president has already commanded state national guard troops (in California), superseding the authority of the governor there.

So for me the question here is: who will be loyal to what (and to whom) in any upcoming confrontation btwn state & the federal government?

Fugitive Slave Act The Fugitive Slave Act

And now there is reporting that the FBI is going to track them down--like, it's illegal for them to be outside Texas.

This kinda reminds me of something . . .
