So my daughter is the face of a nationwide Congressional PSA on teenage mental health that launched today. She was chosen based on her advocacy stemming from our @imagecomics.com comic, A HAUNTED GIRL (co-created by her, me, & @marcolorenzana.bsky.social)!

Last year's arrest of Mahmoud Khalil was more than just a chilling act of political repression, it was an attack on all of our constitutional rights. Now, as the crackdown on pro-Palestinian free speech continues, Mahmoud is being threatened with rearrest. Mahmoud is free—and must remain free.

Just so people outside of MN know - a lot of the US citizens getting “arrested” by ICE never get processed at Whipple. They are roughed up during the arrest and then often dropped off miles from where they were picked up. It means we don’t know the true scale of what ICE is doing based on ICE stats

The Trump-Vance administration just used your taxes to pay for an ICE agent to do this to a 21-year-old kid, who was only protesting because another ICE agent killed a mother of three, who was only there because ICE agents are kidnapping your neighbors

From @arnorosenfeld.bsky.social, a deeply reported look at how the ADL detached from civil rights organizations allied in fighting anti-semitism, under pressure from the right. Which now leaves it poorly equipped to build coalitions essential keeping Jews connected to other groups.
The ADL’s turn away from civil rights was years in the making — Oct. 7 accelerated it
The ADL has focused mostly on antisemitism since Oct. 7, but the move away from historic civil rights work began long before.

The one thing authoritarian leaders usually have going for them is the general apathy of the majority when they make a move solely against a marginal group in society.
But when they occupy an entire city with clumsy, brutal force, that just forces everyone out of that apathy.

These baseless probes are yet another escalation in the Trump regime’s attack on the rights of transgender youth.
Let’s be clear: These investigations do not change New York law, which protects trans students’ rights to join sport teams consistent with their gender identity.

On Fox 9 just now they interviewed a woman at the scene in Minneapolis. She says she’s not an activist but felt a call to action like she hasn’t felt since 9/11. She says she was raised to love America. She says she’s never felt scared of the government in her life, until now.

Your regular reminder that there is no legal path from martial law to suspending elections in this country.
That doesn't mean there is no path. It just means that we need to reject the framing that the federal government has any legal authority to cease elections.

Remember that elections are held at the state/county level. The county clerk (an elected position) oversees and transmits the tallies. Voter suppression's true levers are things like removing access and intimidation. You can fight back by volunteering as poll workers, supporting voter rights orgs
