I think it’s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks.
IE: they don’t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against
They erased the new Banksy mural in London, but the stain remains
Here are the 128 House Democrats who voted to table (kill) the Rep. Al Green D-TX impeachment resolution against President Trump over the Iran attacks.
I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.
There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.
They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.
“It’s a lot easier to destroy a thing than to build a thing.”
Small acts of resistance count! Had the pleasure of taking down some toilet paper USA propaganda at my local cafe’s community announcements and ads cork board. Usually it’s filled with school play posters and business cards. Time to find something positive to post instead! #resist #fiftyfiftyone
Idk who needs to hear this but, if you ever feel like your actions are not enough, remember that you, right now, are surviving inside a flawed system, not failing within a fair one
Every action counts, no matter how small

Amen to this! 💙
Moreover, the Trump administration’s decision to reopen Delaney Hall, a private, for-profit prison in our community, should have never gone forward.
New Jersey deserves better and the Trump administration continues to take actions to undermine the wellbeing of our residents.
This incident is disturbing, unnecessary and indicative of tactics that are undermining the safety and security of our communities, not adding to it. Law enforcement officers should have deescalated this situation. Mayor Baraka should be immediately released.
As mayor of Newark, Ras Baraka has a responsibility to ensure that facilities operating in the city are adhering to laws that protect the safety and wellbeing of occupants and residents.
Tariffs are taxation without representation. We wrote a whole Declaration of Independence about it. Threw tea in the harbor and everything.
I like telling authoritarians where to shove it in multiple languages
it really is astounding that a presidential administration crashed the growth trajectory of the wealthiest country on the planet in basically two months
Nothing speaks to the current state of Christianity more than the fact that atheists can give Pope Francis credit for trying to follow the teachings of Jesus while “Christians” like Marjorie Taylor Greene celebrate his death because he challenged her to do the same.

We have now arrived at the "arresting judges" level of fascism.
He said / Xi said…nothing.

History of Party Majorities

Republican Majority:

Coolidge, Hoover & the Great Depression taught voters NOT TO TRUST the Republicans with power.
I guess enough of us forgot.
TRUMP HAS REMINDED US.
See the problem here?
This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.
After many recommendations, I finally started watching the Star Wars show Andor. I found this moment from season 1 to be particularly relevant. What do you think?
It's so odd that Christian Nationalists are trying to stomp out *pretend* "anti-Christian bias" when their repudiation of everything Jesus ever said is the biggest example of *real* "anti-Christian bias" in the United States right now.
#poiLIEvre wants to be the first in Canadian history to use the notwithstanding clause to override the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
Not in an emergency. Not as a last resort. But as a campaign promise.
Let that sink in. This clause was meant to be rare. Extreme. Unthinkable.
