Most of the work to oppose the authoritarianism is being done by rank & file volunteers outside of party and conventional organizing structures. (An exception is local Democratic clubs which are also all rank & file.) And most of the work is being done by women.

Tomorrow Trump will deploy troops into DC and declare martial law there because someone named β€œBig Balls” got beat up. This has been planned since Day One.

ICE’s Spectacle of Intimidation Immigrants showing up for court dates in Manhattan must now navigate past rows of masked federal agents.

Mark Peterson’s black-and-white images of ICE agents evoke film noir and the urban-crime photography of the 1930s and ’40s. β€œIf someone is doing everything right, and then they still get detained, it’s a crime scene,” he said.

A privacy-censored screenshot of a recent Nextdoor conversation that reads:
S - "Has anyone else had two people coming to the front door and ringing the bell and knocking and not responding over the ring doorbell? It is always two women. They are wearing vests. When I speak to them, they will not speak back. Today it’s two different women than it was yesterday."
M - Reply. "call police!"
R - Reply. "That's ridiculous and a waste of our first responders' time."
M - Reply. "suspicious person ,its not ! better safe than sorry"

A satirical promotional flyer (white, green, red) for Nextdoor reads: Join now! Nextdoor connects homeowners to the fearmongering that matters most. Whether you’re a NIMBY, a Christofascist, a Trumpublican, a Ring doorcam owner, or simply white & frightened, this is the social contagion app for you.

In addition to spreading fear of the ordinary, you can enjoy regular contact from unscrupulous business owners, spammy real estate agents, and police officers who will stoke your inane terror of the mundane. 2X THE CAUCACITY. At bottom two white seniors are pictured, at left a man speaking into a cell phone saying "Yes, sir. there's a Latino existing outside of my house right now." At right is pictured a white woman reacting in far as a happy Asian child rings an electronic doorbell against a red Emergency Dial 9-1-1 vehicle image.

At center is a grainy young white woman audibly responding in fear with a Ring doorbell camera at left and a smartphone making a 911 emergency call at right. At bottom is a montage of happy people of different ages and races. Beneath that is the admonishment: IT'S UN-AMERICAN! Small print reads: This PSA is paid for by CEFWFP, the Council to End the Frightened Whites to Fascists Pipeline.

I'm sleepless, so I'm roasting the racist NIMBYs on Nextdoor alive vicariously through satirical content because it's healthier than a flame war.

Rep. Van Duyne Introduces the Stop FUNDERs Act to Include Rioting as a Form of Racketeering Under the RICO Act The standard of treating violent, extremist activists as individual criminals must end.

These evil Texas motherfuckers are going to try and criminalize the exercising of our First Amendment right to assemble (protest). So it is more important than ever THAT ALL OF US TURN OUT.
