ICE threw me and other protestors to the ground on Friday because we dared to stand up for our neighbors. I’m okay, but our communities aren’t.
We can't afford apathy or inaction from our leaders right now. Abolishing ICE is a moral necessity.

"We cannot allow the erosion of one of our nation’s most vital democratic safeguards: truthful, unbiased data."
Dan Kohn on why democracy will suffer from Trump's recent firing of Bureau of Labor Statistics Commissioner Erika McEntarfer:
Jews and NYPD
Monotone of photos from the action - white guy in kippah getting arrested, person with red shirt and sign, people with sign that says JEWS SAY NO MORE, and blurry photo
In NYC, 40+ Jews arrested calling to LET GAZA LIVE
This is what Torah looks like.
Second photo, top left, that’s the incredible Rabbi Ari Lev Fonari getting arrested.
"We’re not burning books, not yet. But as Ray Bradbury warned in his dystopian novel Fahrenheit 451, forgetting doesn’t always need fire. Sometimes all it takes is neglect and the right submission form."

Johnston County NC @momsdemand.bsky.social No Kings Rally in Clayton
RALEIGH. #NoKingsDay
I’m standing between two people holding one of their protest signs which reads, “I POUR MY COCKTAILS SERVED UP — NO ICE!!!”
A man in a flannel shirt holds a sign with “8647” between his parents who are sitting in mobility aids. Their signs read “GRANDMA’S PISSED OFF!” and “DUE PROCESS FOR ALL!”
Ben and I talk to a man in a mobility aid with a sign reading “Cutting Medicare and Medicaid WILL KILL people like me!”
Just finished up at the Evanston No Kings rally. It was safe, peaceful, and a show of solidarity by *at least* 1,000 people.
Go to your local protest. Don’t let this administration scare you. Stand with your community when our leaders won’t.
Save the date & celebrate
JUNETEENTH
At Johnston Co. Down Home NC JUNETEENTH FREE MARKET

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.
Something bad is happening in NC.Our #NCGA is trying to pass a Permit-less Conceal Carry Law.So people will conceal caring a gun with no training & possibly no background checks! Scary! Also they are lowering the age to conceal carry to 18! Bonkers!
@MomsDemandActionNC showing up to say bad idea
Omg you look soooo good!!! Thank you for supporting 🥹🫶🏼
June is Gun Violence Awareness Month.

UNFIT TO SERVE?
JASMINE CROCKETT: ‘IT’S TIME FOR REPUBLICANS TO QUESTION TRUMP’S MENTAL ACUITY’
The congresswoman wants the GOP to ask whether the president is "equipped to serve mentally" www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
Food for thought 🤔. Please spend a minute or so listening as the Congresswoman from MI describes the stated reasons for & impacts of proposed cuts to SNAP (food stamps) benefits for hungry children and seniors. Then call your elected representatives to inform them of your views on the topic.
Thank you for laying this out, @repbrendanboyle.bsky.social
Passing the #OneBigBeautifulBill pushes the BIGGEST cut to #Medicaid in American history, which translates to a loss of healthcare for MILLIONS OF AMERICANS
#ProtectMedicaid
Working families struggle to put food on the table and keep a roof over their heads.
Meanwhile, Republicans are gutting public education to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.
Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.
