Anyway. I’ve written a 36-step guide to destroying the machines and the men who control them disguised as a novel but I’ve gotta convince my agent it’s not too weird to get someone to publish it. So stay tuned I guess.

At this rate ICE may do what a thousand keyboard warriors couldn't and spark a national general strike
Thousands of union members staged a nonviolent march today. iCE gassed the crowd of nurses and teaches. The neighborhood is in a cloud. Flash bangs are being fired.

I spend a lot of time trying to help people understand that not all protests are the same, but one of the things that make this hard is that sometimes you show up for a "liberal vibes with kids" protest and you get an "everyone gets teargassed, including the kids" protest.
Just got gassed pretty good at the labor union anti-ICE protest in Portland. Massive march, 5-10k strong. Vibes were very much liberal rather than radical. Lots of kids and older folks.

They gassed the whole crowd as soon as it marched on ICE, in broad daylight.

...When you open up the curtains
Start answering the phone
Stop driving around for hours
'Cause you hate going home

When you can talk about it
Even say their name
When you start thinking
You'll survive even though
You'll never be the same
That's how you know...

If tear gas is seeping into your home or you know tear gas is likely to be deployed in your neighborhood, you can do the following:

Set up wet towels in the doorjambs and windows. Turn off your HVAC systems, and build and use CR boxes.

This isn't perfect, but it will help.

I've heard from an alert reader that toward the end, the Wambsganss signs went from labeling her as "Trump endorsed" to "Republican."
A huge political earthquake in Texas tonight as Democrats flipped a State Senate seat from red to blue in a district Trump won by 17 points.

Trump personally waded in — endorsing the Republican and personally urging base turnout — and was dealt a massive loss.

Democrats didn’t just see a 30-point shift in Texas and flip a State Senate seat red to blue: they did it while being outspent 20-to-1. This will send shockwaves through the Republican Party.

I left the protest at least two hours after the big march got gassed, and when I took my mask off three blocks away from the ICE building the gas was still heavy in the air. The disproportionate size of the attack is as big a story as the peaceful, vulnerable crowd. You didn't have to get close.
It's hard to overstate how ell-organized the portland march that got gassed was... organizers made the crowd promise to be peaceful, said the march would slow in front of the ICE building but not stop, that we would stick to one chant (ICE Out). They did absolutely everything right and got gassed.

It's the infringement of self-government that all autocrats inevitably turn to.

People can make their piece with Evil over There.

But when it comes to your door demanding to be embraced and loved? The responses usually aren't printable.

And by the way, I'm starting to really warm to bougie middle class chauvinism.

Because here's the thing about it: it's remarkably porous, but it does set minimum standards of conduct.

The ppl peacefully grinding ICE to a halt in the streets are mostly offended middle-aged, middle-class ppl.
