Why this ICE boycott wants consumers to resist Amazon and Google Could consumers give up Netflix and YouTube for a month? That's what a strike protesting Trumpโ€™s immigration enforcement is asking people to do.

The 10 companies to boycott during February:
- Microsoft
- Apple
- Amazon
- Google
- Meta
- OpenAI
- Netflix
- Paramount+
- Uber
- X

Resist and Unsubscribe

For everyone feeling helpless right now: "the shortest path to change without hurting consumers is an economic strike targeted at the companies driving the markets and enabling our president." #resistandunsubscribe

Greetings from Kyiv.
Itโ€™s cold outside.
Itโ€™s cold inside.
But we plan to make it through this winter.

Wishing you a gentle week wherever you are.

Post image La Digue and Indivisible Paris: STOP TRUMP'S ATTACKS ON DEMOCRACY IN THE US AND ABROAD - CALL TO PROTEST IN PARIS & MARSEILLE

Paris: Wed Jan 28 - 37 Quai d'Orsay 6:30PM

Masked government agents killing civilians and disappearing neighbors into unmarked vans. Vile anti-immigrant rhetoric coming from the highest levels of government. Attacks against the press, judges, universities and political rivals. The illegal abduction of a foreign president. Threats to invade sovereign states, allies and non-allies alike. The White House cozying up to war criminals and foreign dictators. All of this as America's billionaires get richer and richer and millions of ordinary people struggle to make ends meet. As US citizens and people with a connection to the US living overseas, we're appalled by the Trump administration's assault on human dignity at home and abroad.

This administration is a threat to all of us, in the United States, France, and beyond. Join us to protest in Paris and Marseille, saying no to authoritarianism and no to imperialism. Let's defend democracy and the rule of law.

Chris Madel ends GOP bid for governor, says he canโ€™t support federal โ€˜retributionโ€™ against Minnesota His exit comes as some other Republicans have started to distance themselves from the Trump administrationโ€™s immigration crackdown in the state.

MN Gubernatorial candidate Chris Madel withdrew this morning from the race, saying "he cannot support the national GOPโ€™s โ€œstated retribution on the citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so.โ€

John Mitnick
@JohnMitnick
I helped to establish DHS in 2002 and 2003 and later had the homeland security portfolio as a White House Counsel and served as General Counsel of the Department.

I am enraged and embarrassed by DHSโ€™s lawlessness, fascism, and cruelty.

Impeach and remove Trumpโ€”now.

The deadly shooting in Minneapolis today was a straight-up execution of a protester by Trump's federal brownshirts. 

The thugs wrestled him to the ground.  They pistol-whipped him, then shot him multiple times.  They murdered him.

Beyond helping establish DHS itself in 2003, Mr. Mitnick was a senate-confirmed Trump choice for General Counsel for DHS in his first term. I've talked with him a few times, and he's not a man for hyperbole. So bear that in mind when you see him calling out DHS's "lawlessness, fascism, and cruelty."

hey remember when a bunch of middle-aged drunk korean lawmakers climbed the locked gates to the national assembly to hold an emergency session after the president gave illegal orders to the military, all of which ended with said president being sentenced to prison

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means itโ€™s now the US administrationโ€™s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

An adorable holiday commercial from French supermarket Intermarchรฉ about a wolf who learned to stop eating animals (well, except for fish) so that he could have friends. The last line in the commercial is "We can all find a good reason to start eating better." www.youtube.com/watch?v=Na9V...
