It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

Body-camera video appears to contradict the government's claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed. A judge ordered Martinez and a co-defendant released pending trial.

News today that ICE shot a woman is chilling. The videos online show that there are some abusive, masked thugs masquerading as law enforcement.

Nobody deserves this. The courts need to step in.

Peacefully protesting is NOT a crime. It's a Constitutionally protected right.

Time for #OperationMrRodgers - take a few minutes to write a letter about how #PBS and #NPR have impacted your life.

On May 20th (Fred Rogers' bd was 3/20) mail a copy to Hakeem Jefferies, the National Archive, and your local PBS station. We need mountains of letters arriving on the same day.

"I want to keep boycotting Amazon, but I also want to support indie authors. How do I do that?"

Many indie authors have their books on Barnes & Noble & Kobo! There are also places like Smashwords & Campfire that are almost all indie books! Itchio now has a THRIVING LGBTQ Indie Book Scene.

No Amazon. No Walmart. No Target. No Disney. No Google. No Apple. No Visa or Mastercard. And especially no Facebook. I will not be posting on Meta platforms for the next 24 hours in support of the economic blackout…

Can you say the same?! 🤚

Let’s. Do. This. 😎✨
