I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

β€œYOU hit HER.”

CHICAGO - Trump’s ICE goons ram into a passing car after snatching someone, then brutally drag the female driver of the car they hit out of her car with guns drawn and arrest her too. (Her brother says she’s a citizen)

β€œMilitary occupation doesn’t make our city safer. Resources and investment makes our city safer.” thank you Bri and all the other protestors who took the time to speak with me last night in Chicago.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Sports resume at schools for military families after a disruption caused by the government shutdown

Extracurricular activities have resumed at schools for military families after a pause tied to the federal government shutdown halted sports and other school-related pursuits for several days.

🧡🧡 Texas Republicans have been increasingly open and aggressive about Christianizing America via schools - to, in the words of the state education board chair, center classrooms around "GOD, GOP & USA."

That fight just escalated, and you should pay attention - because your state could be next.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

Today, I drove an hour and a half with my wife and a couple friends to pick up a neighbor who was summarily, inexplicably arrested by ICE at a check-in ten days ago and then just as inexplicably released, 100 miles from home today. It was a happy occasion, all things considered, but...

BREAKING🚨 Journalist Mario Guevara has officially been deported Friday from the United States back to his native El Salvador. This is a shameful erosion of press freedom in the U.S. β€” the first time that CPJ has documented this type of retaliation related to reporting.

Less than 1% of Total Medicaid Spending Goes to Emergency Care for Noncitizen Immigrants Despite claims that immigrants are accessing and draining public benefits, less than 1% of Medicaid’s budget is spent on hospital emergency care for noncitizen immigrants.

FWIW, noncitizen immigrants account for less than 1 percent of emergency care via @kff.org

Day 2 of the Republican shutdown. Your regular reminders:

1. GOP controls government. They control what bills get voted on and the vote thresholds for each bill. Senate GOP can pass their bad funding bill today if they felt like it.

2. Dems are fighting to lower costs and save healthcare.

If you want to know where crime is worst in North Carolina, don't rely on social media - look at the actual data instead. πŸ“Š

The places where rates of violent crime are the worst are all low-income, mostly rural counties where law enforcement is stretched thin and a lot of people are desperate.

When we have a government where raw power, grievance, and corruption reign supreme–nobody's rights are safe.

800 detainees are missing after being held in Alligator Alcatraz in July, showing no record of their location in ICE’s database.

Other detainees have been mistakenly deported or sent to detention centers thousands of miles away.

The cruelty is the point.

In a letter to the @bittersouth.bsky.social, journalist Mario Guevaraβ€”a legal resident of the U.S. who’s been jailed for 100 days without any pending criminal charges and who’s currently fighting an ICE deportation orderβ€”recounts the harrowing details of his detention in an Atlanta federal prison.
