Spotted at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Halloween bash:

Giant ice sculpture with built-in luge. Pour booze in the top funnel and it chills and shoots out the bottom.

This monster? Likely $5K+ for one-time use.

lots of misinformation out there about helping folks on SNAP. this is a free, useful guide from an expert who knows the system & the burden of means testing ⬇️

I firmly believe, with every single atom of my being, that instead of amplifying unreliable information that discourages helping, our focus as 42 million Americans face hunger must be on providing factual information that enables people to help.

Plaintiffs: "What is happening is, agents are proactively throwing tear gas at civilians. They're inciting violence, and then they're using that violence to justify more force."

The dream of every Muslim is simply to be treated the same as any other New Yorker.

And yet, for too long, we have been told to ask for less than that, and endure hatred and bigotry in the shadows.

No more.

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

IL Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias is warning federal immigration agents that swapping/altering license plates during Trump's ICE raids is against the law & "will not be tolerated." A Plate Watch Hotline has been implemented for people to report cases of license plate tampering:

It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

No Kings #Minneapolis - huge crowd.

Large crowd gathered on The Commons I. Front of the Wells Fargo buildings in downtown Minneapolis. Blue sky, many people holding handmade protest signs. One says, “The greatest danger to our future is apathy.”

Racks of Inflatable costumes like T-Rex, Sasquatch and Pokemons and such, photo grabbed from the Portland Reddit

Taking in refugees isn't just a nice thing we do — we have a legal obligation. The 1951 Refugee Convention came about specifically because countries like the US refused entry to Jews who were trying to escape Germany, because the world didn't ever want that to happen again.
