Also the Port of Chicago

A bunch of newly activated people in Chicago need to read this. A troubling number of people believe the police "are on our side" because they have largely followed the law and orders they've been given about not helping ICE. The police will never be "on our side." Sometimes, they're just reined in.

I've mentioned this before but it bears repeating. Don't leave FSA funds on the table at the end of the year. LOTS of places like homeless shelters etc... would love donations of FSA eligible items. For the past 2 years, I've used left over funds to shop here: fsastore.com - then donate the items.

If you work at a hotel, restaurant, or convenience store frequented by ICE agents in the Chicago area, I want to hear from you.

This really makes it sound like a Border Patrol agent tried to kill an anti-ICE activist in Chicago and DHS lied to cover for him

Whatever Speaker Johnson says:

He sent the House home for YET ANOTHER WEEK because he cares more about protecting the Epstein files than he does about protecting the American people.

i would again like to remind everyone that NEGATING A FRAME REINFORCES IT

"he's not really targeting criminals" makes it an argument about criminality

"this is a fascist attack" states what is actually happening

START WITH WHAT IT IS
not what it isn't

Eat. Sleep. Exercise. Nurture the relationships that sustain you. Protect your health. Find joy. Don't mistake any of these for the resistance itself. Joy isn't resistance, neither is rest. But you need to be whole to resist for a lifetime.

We're going to be in movement for the rest of our lives, there's a world to win & so much between us and freedom. How do we make struggle sustainable? So ask yourself, what is the best use of my skills and resources. Limit yourself to that work, because you can't be everywhere.

That looks like a great place for one of these stickers I had made. If anyone wants a couple DM me an address and I’ll mail them. The price is do something positive in your community, on the honor system.

Yeah, yeah, that’s the ticket

A photo of a 3” x 5” sticker with the words “attention fascist collaborators you will be identified. We won’t forget” in red and black letters on a yellow background.

If you want a couple of these stickers, DM me your address. No charge, on the honor system that you volunteer, donate, organize or agitate in your community. I wanted to do something that says we will win and was also counter recruiting. My account doesn’t have much reach so please share.

My Thursday morning coffee group folded a pile, and everybody took some. I’ll be printing more. Thanks!

A flyer with the words "Attention fascist collaborators you will be identified. We won't forget" In a red and black block font with a grey gradient background.

I'm working on this design for stickers, flyers and maybe 1/4 sheet drop cards. If you have any design suggestions, please share. I want a brighter red and I'm thinking of underlining "will". Not sure what I'd put on the back of drop cards. Any thoughts?

Canada is tired of having the tariffs raised on them for the Epsteinth time.

Or should we say, raised on ‘you’?

Not able to dm you, your chat setting is restricted. Mine is open if you want to message. I'm aware of a lot of mutual aid groups in my area but none want medical supplies.

Can you accept in kind donations by mail? Or do you know of a similar effort in the Chicago area?

4 to 1 or more in the social action groups at my UU church. I'm reminded of this site that was shown to me by a women sitting next to me at an organizing meeting 2017-2018? I keep a shortcut to it on my phone ☺️

Yikes! I just submitted an application for an open seat on the Morton Grove library board. Based on the application questions, I think I'm an extreme long shot. But I know that taking an action, even if unsuccessful, makes it easier for me to take action again. Grateful for the online nudges.
